Camiant and Casero Integration Optimizes Delivery of Upstream-Intensive Services for Increased Customer Satisfaction and Peak Network Performance
(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) MARLBOROUGH, MA, May 16 / MARKET WIRE/ --
Camiant, Inc., the leading provider of
policy control and application assurance technology, and Casero, a leader
in white-label personal media management solutions for broadband providers
worldwide, today announced a joint development and marketing partnership.
The two companies now offer an integration of Camiant's policy control
platform with Casero's Personal Media Management and Sharing solution,
delivering a combined offering that optimizes performance of
upstream-intensive applications to provide a superior customer experience
and peak network performance.
The uploading of computer files, such as photographs, video, music and
other media to a network hosted backup site using the Casero application
has proven to be of tremendous value to subscribers. Uploading large
files, especially for premium subscribers with large amounts of media, can
consume the upstream broadband connection for an extended period of time
causing performance degradation and subscriber frustration. The Camiant
and Casero integration, currently being trialed by a major US cable
operator, ensures subscribers can upload media faster, without interrupting
other upstream traffic, while also improving overall network performance
for all subscribers. The result is a better customer experience resulting
in reduced customer service calls and less subscriber churn.
Casero's Personal Media Platform delivers a single, centralized location
for subscribers to store, share, manage and access their personal media for
all devices. Camiant's policy server, the Multimedia Policy Engine (MPE)
provides real-time control of network resources for value-added
applications and subscribers. When a user uploads media, Casero's Personal
Media Platform alerts Camiant's MPE to create a larger, dedicated service
flow so that the backup service is fast and independent of other traffic.
Camiant's policy server renders QoS (Quality of Service) conditions for
every application, and together with Casero's white label solution, allows
cable operators to deliver a rich, branded user experience providing an
infrastructure for additional revenue opportunities.
"Casero's Pesonal Media Management Platform allows broadband providers to
offer a complete online backup, management and sharing solution for user's
photographs, music and other precious personal media," said Randy Fuller,
vice president, business development of Camiant, Inc. "By adding policy
control, operators now have the means to assure the highest level of
service to increase subscriber loyalty."
"Together, Camiant and Casero are able to deliver bigger, faster uploads
and improve network performance," said Denis Martineau, vice president of
sales & marketing, Casero Inc. "Casero provides MSO's and other broadband
service providers with the ability to offer value added services under
their own brand to increase revenues and decrease churn."
Camiant and Casero will demonstrate their integrated offering in booth #611
at The Cable Show '08, being held at the Morial Convention Center in New
Orleans from May 18-20, 2008. To schedule a media or analyst briefing at
