Original Press Release:
Openet's Policy Manager Enhanced to Streamline Operator Policy Management Processes
Nice, France, TM Forum Management World - May 6, 2009 - Openet, the leading provider of Transactional Intelligence for the world's largest and most innovative network service providers, today announced the immediate availability of FusionWorks Policy Manager 2.5. This release extends communication service providers' ability to manage libraries of policy rules, minimise network latencies, and implement updates to subscriber-specific policies.
Operators are implementing increasingly complex policies within their networks to protect their subscribers and implement new business models. These policies cover a range of strategic issues like fair usage, and new engagement and business models such as dynamic service tiers. Operators need a more robust capability to effectively define, deploy, and administer these policy initiatives.
FusionWorks Policy Manager 2.5 enhances the ease with which policy decisions are created and implemented. The new enhancements enable operators to:
o Easily define policy rules using a template-driven graphical workflow tool;
o Visually associate complex rule sets, including detailed chaining of multiple rule sets;
o Test new and updated policies with a robust Rules Simulator to assess the impact of potential changes on the network, service level agreements and the subscriber experience;
o Dramatically reduce network latencies involved in policy control decisions by actively deploying in-line policy caching.
"FusionWorks Policy Manager continues to lead the industry in flexibility, power, and performance. Policy Manager 2.5 is a direct response to the needs of our Tier 1 customers, and positions Openet dramatically ahead within this market," said Joe Hogan, CTO of Openet.
