As consumers continue to demand more rich content delivered in video form from their service providers, these companies have to be able to do more than just provide voice services. Those who cannot meet the challenges of the market will find themselves struggling to hold onto customers. To thrive, they must be able to effectively manage the convergence of the network layer with the services layer.

A free webinar, Service Brokers: Exploring the Next Generation Application to Network Connectivity Alternative, scheduled for Wednesday, September 1 at 10AM EDT and is designed to demonstrate how the Service Broker can deliver next generation applications for the network connectivity alternative.

In the past, service providers have been forced to replicate services across multiple network domains in an effort to ensure all applications are available to all subscribers, regardless of the network they are on. Next-generation delivery demands more, however, in terms of the flexibility to interwork with the networks of today and tomorrow.

Those attending this webinar will learn how Service Brokers are increasingly recognized as a superior way to deploy and manage disparate new and existing applications in any network, regardless of the service provider. They will also learn how Service Brokers address the challenges of today’s networks.

Webinar attendees will also gain value from breaking down the role of the service broker, the architecture and the functionality, and will examine real deployment scenarios. The event is specifically designed for communications service providers, ISVs and systems integrators.

Speakers for this event include Joe McGarvey, senior principal analyst of Current Analysis (News - Alert); Michel Arrede, product marketing for Amdocs/jNetX; Chris Haddock, manager of Alliances and Applications OpenCloud; Jose Deras, vice president, Sales Engineering Metaswitch Networks; and Tal Zoller, senior director at Oracle (News - Alert) Communications.
