Case Studies
quote Carriers cite enhanced services as the primary motivator for migrating to next-generation networks. However, this enthusiasm is tempered by the challenges involved in integrating softswitches and application platforms from multiple vendors. MetaSwitch's strategy of supplying an ever wider range of solutions therefore addresses a clear market need.quote

Irwin Lazar, Senior Analyst at Burton Group.

Delivering a pre-integrated suite of applications, MetaSphere allows you to mix and match service features in order to come to market quickly with a competitive offering. Because MetaSphere applications share common hardware and software resources, stacking additional applications upon existing services is made that much easier.

As a result, you are able to differentiate your product offering with exciting new services that

  • attract new high-value subscribers
  • increase revenues from existing customers
  • reduce subscriber churn and line loss.

The MetaSphere Application Suite overlays new revenue-generating services on top of MetaSwitch's IMS-compliant switching products as well as your pre-existing legacy network infrastructure. MetaSphere applications provide a mature and widely-deployed solution with the following capabilities:

The MetaSphere Application Suite enables enhanced service delivery today while providing a unique framework for ongoing new service development.

IP-BASED ARCHITECTURE

A key advantage of the MetaSphere Application Suite is that it is delivered "ready to go" - pre-integrated with other MetaSwitch network elements, and with software pre-loaded onto any required server hardware.

Thanks to the use of an IMS-compliant SIP interface, all communication between the MetaSphere Application Suite and the MetaSwitch Call Agent and Media Gateway is via IP/Ethernet, so no TDM ports are used on either platform, lowering costs and simplifying deployment.

SINGLE-SOURCE SUPPORT

Customer support for all MetaSphere components is provided directly by the MetaSwitch engineers who install and support the MetaSwitch Class 4/5 Softswitch. Service providers can therefore deploy a combined softswitch and application suite, confident in the knowledge it is backed up by a proven single vendor.
