CSG Launches Mediation in the Cloud


The continued proliferation of the Internet of Things (IoT) is projected to lead to more than 50 billion sensors and connected devices worldwide by 20221. As a result, many communications service providers (CSPs) are moving their revenue management functions to the cloud to support the demands of IoT, 5G, and new digital services.

Today, CSG (NASDAQ: CSGS) announces the availability of its Mediation platform as a cloud-based solution. Hosted by Amazon Web Services (News - Alert) (AWS), CSG Mediation leverages both the cloud and native AWS tools to help CSPs meet demands in real-time. It is equipped to elastically scale, tying costs to current demand versus the traditional method of investing up front to account for unpredictable peaks.

"As demands continue to escalate resulting from the deployment of 5G and the growth in IoT, the need for mediating new usage data records will increase in importance," said Chad Dunavant, global head of product management, CSG. "For CSPs, it is difficult to predict the number of applications that will leverage this new evolution of connectivity, so having a platform like CSG Mediation that can scale on-demand to support growth as it occurs is critical."

Using CSG Mediation delivers significant cost savings and operational efficiencies, while improving time to market for new services, providing:

  • Unparalleled application performance: Benchmarked to process more than 1.7 million transactions per second on a single compute node.
  • Cost-effective entry: With budget-conscious annual compute costs, the application can process up to 35 billion events per day.
  • Scalability: Increase volumes up to 150 billion events per day immediately, adding virtual compute, memory and torage. For streams with no shared context, customers can process more than a trillion events per day with only seven nodes.



CSG Mediation provides a cost-effective and efficient way for service providers to seize the 5G opportunity with minimal risk and disruption to existing systems. In addition, CSG can manage your back-office operations, giving you time to focus on critical business priorities. With data center and infrastructure management, applications configuration management, applications operations, and business operations capabilities, CSG Managed Services currently supports some of the world's largest CSPs to streamline their operations, implement their strategy, and accelerate their business growth.
