A U.S.-based, multinational cloud provider, recently awarded a new multimillion dollar order to Allot Communications, for its Deep Packet Inspection-enabled Service Gateway (News - Alert) solution.

Officials said that Allot Communications’ Gateway solution is a highly scalable DPI-based platform for broadband optimization and revenue generation in fixed, mobile and enterprise networks.  

It offers built-in compatibility for cloud environments and combines granular traffic detection and reporting with real-time policy control.

Designed to lower costs and improve service performance, the solution will soon be deployed in multiple data centers worldwide.

For the proper delivery of cloud-based business services to customers, it is important that the network resources needed to feed traffic to and from the cloud are available all time.

Cloud providers, with the help of this solution will be able to continuously monitor and manage this traffic on a variety of levels, like per customer, per customer branch office, and per application.

Additionally, the solution, being easily customizable also offers cloud providers the tools necessary to meet any and all Service Level Agreements.

"More and more enterprises are adopting a cloud approach to providing business applications. The Allot (News - Alert) Service Gateway ensures that data and services will flow smoothly between the customers' premises and the data centers, thus preventing congestion and ensuring quality of service," said Vin Costello (News - Alert), President of the Americas for Allot Communications, in a press statement. "The fact that we provide a carrier class, scalable, and reliable solution was a particularly important factor in this win, allowing the customer plenty of room for future growth."
