[June 23, 2011] Tekelec enhances performance of DSR, Policy Server and SDM product families Tweet Jun 23, 2011 (Datamonitor via COMTEX) -- Tekelec, a mobile broadband solutions company, has made advances to the performance of its Diameter Signaling Router, or DSR, Policy Server and Subscriber Data Management, or SDM, product families. The latest advances enable service providers to support rapid subscriber, device and traffic increases in the 3G, IMS and LTE networks. These enhancements also help service providers deliver services like fair use management, personalized service tiers with guaranteed quality of service, roaming bill shock prevention, simplified family and group plans across multiple devices, and casual mobile data plans based on time or application usage. Key product updates include integration of all three products onto Tekelec's EAGLE XG platform, a scalable middleware layer, to reduce hardware footprint and maintenance costs as well as provide reliability and scalability in tier one service provider networks. The updates also include: DSR capacity up to 500,000 Diameter messages per second in a single frame, including redundancy, and support for subscribers; Policy Server capacity yields up to 10,000 transactions per second (TPS) per blade and up to 100,000 TPS per system; Policy Server processing power of up to 60 million concurrent sessions per system; Subscriber Profile Repository capacity of up to 5000 TPS per blade; SDM-based IMS-Routing capabilities; and Diameter Signaling Router, Policy Server and SDM availability across HP c-Class blades and rackmount servers. Diameter Signaling Router, Policy Server and SDM join Tekelec's Performance Intelligence Center and next-generation session management products, SIP Signaling Router and Service Broker, on the EAGLE XG platform. This next-generation platform provides a reliable service delivery environment for 2G, 3G and 4G mobile networks including LTE and IMS as well as fixed-line and cable networks. The DSR provides a single connection point for all Diameter traffic in service providers' 3G, IMS and LTE networks. The SDM product family is based on a back-end database, the Subscriber Data Server, that provides a unified subscriber profile across network domains. The database supports multiple front-end applications, including an LTE or IMS Home Subscriber Server, next-generation Home Location Register, a Subscriber Profile Repository, a User Data Repository, and an Authentication, Authorization and Accounting Server. The platform can be deployed in mobile, VoIP, fixed mobile convergence, and machine-to-machine networks. In addition, certain of Tekelec's deployed policy solutions include subscriber repositories that we expect to offer to upgrade to SDMs over time. "Tekelec has raised the performance bar for mobile data networks to provide the scalability tier one networks require" said Ron de Lange, president and CEO. "By delivering new levels of performance innovation, Tekelec is committed to helping service providers exceed subscriber expectations for fast, reliable and personalized broadband services." http://www.datamonitor.com Republication or redistribution, including by framing or similar means, is expressly prohibited without prior written consent.
