Kabira Offers Enhanced KPSA Solution
(Wireless News Via Acquire Media NewsEdge)
Kabira Technologies, a provider in extreme transaction processing
software for enterprises, announced the release of the 3.4 version of
its widely deployed Kabira Provisioning and Service Activation product
(KPSA).
The company stated that the new version is designed to enable faster
service provisioning, easier monitoring and greater flexibility by
simplifying how complex product offerings and services are handled.
With the new 3.4 release, Kabira said it demonstrates its
responsiveness to the need for service providers to both better
integrate with their legacy systems and to provide greater support for
new developments in customer self- and auto-provisioning.
The new enhancements build upon well-established KPSA advantages in
general service activation and in the provisioning of wire line,
wireless and multi-play packages -- including those comprised of high
speed data, VoIP, TV and wireless content offerings. KPSA is deployed
on 2G to 3G+ and broadband networks (DSL, optical fiber, and WiFi), and
is currently in development phase for IMS and WiMAX.
Stephane Beauvais, KPSA product manager at Kabira, said, "Naturally, as
a leader in extreme transaction processing solutions, we've been at the
forefront of helping Tier One telecom and broadband service providers,
as well as emerging service providers attain their extremely demanding
service delivery goals.
"As new services become increasingly more complex, today's intensely
competitive marketplaces require ever more rapid and exacting new
service provisioning and activation. With its 3.4 release, Kabira's
service fulfillment offering demonstrates our ability and commitment to
drive service delivery innovation to the next level."
Changes in how KPSA communicates asynchronously with legacy network
elements, provisioning systems and enterprise middleware enables
service providers to introduce new services for a larger number of end
users. At the same time, Kabira said it has improved KPSA
responsiveness for synchronous service provisioning. Increases in
system throughput and reduction in processing latency contribute to
accelerating internal handling of synchronous processing requests
associated with self-provisioning applications. Today KPSA has been
shown to be able to provision up to 210 service orders per second on
Linux-based, 2 x 2Ghz dual core Opteron systems with a latency of under
200 milliseconds.
With this release, KPSA now includes a fully integrated alarm
forwarding capability for SNMP network managers. Alarms can be
predefined within KPSA and are logged into a dedicated file. These
changes make it easier for service providers' operational staff to see,
identify and resolve provisioning issues. Additionally, this release
improves how the KPSA service catalogue helps service providers
provision and activate complex service offerings -- enabling
higher-quality service design, maintenance and re-usability across
various technologies. New service catalogue capabilities include
extended mapping between customer and resource facing service orders
and scripting enhancements for a clean delineation between market level
service offerings and network level service renderings.
