Building Carrier Networks Using COTS Technology
Optimize the cost of Delivering Network Services
 
Date: Wednesday, December 5, 2007
Time: 11:00 AM PT / 2:00 PM ET
Duration: One hour
 
Innovative telecommunications service providers, NEP’s (Network Equipment Providers) and ISV’s (Independent Software Providers) are leveraging commercial off the shelf (COTS) technology to help reduce the cost and complexity of delivering their Next Generation Network (NGN) services.
 
The IBM BladeCenter family is a COTS (Commercial off the Shelf) platform providing greater deployment flexibility – Central Office, Data Center, or Customer Premise; seamless integration into existing network infrastructures with support of a wide range of protocols and interfaces; and an increase in the quality of provisioned services, facilitated by a high-speed architecture at substantially lower CAPEX cost when compared with legacy and proprietary platforms. This common infrastructure enables simple standard processes, shared spare inventory, pre-installation of power, cables, racks, and networking to reduce ongoing OPEX costs.
 
The IBM BladeCenter family also provides access to rapid innovation and the latest technology to deliver continuous price/performance improvements – while enabling solutions like iSCSI, over 10 GigE, that can drive up to twice the throughput of existing fiber channel solutions, at a lower overall cost. Leveraging industry standard technology as AdvancedMC modules to provide support for legacy telecommunications interfaces, signal processing and packet acceleration solutions, the IBM BladeCenter platform is well positioned to address the needs of equipment providers to deliver a broad variety of networking application platforms to service providers for the emerging IMS, 3.5G/4G wireless and Voice Over IP infrastructure.
 
Please attend the IBM sponsored webinar with our solution partners Blade Network Technologies and Interphase to understand how the IBM BladeCenter HT is assisting telecommunications service providers, Network Equipment Providers and ISV’s in reducing costs associated with NGN deployments, reducing time-to-market for delivery of new, revenue generating services, while providing additional deployment flexibility not previously available.

Measure Service Robustness, Reduce Costly Service Downtime and
Customer Churn for Maximum ROI. Don’t Get Caught with Your Pants Down!
 
Date: Thursday, December 6, 2007
Time: 8:00 AM PT / 11:00 AM ET
Duration: One hour
 
Service Providers and Cable operators are actively trying to improve the reliability and uptime of their networked products and IP business. Simply put, downtime or robustness shortfalls translate into revenue loss and expensive customer churn. This webcast discusses how provider customers like Cox Communications are improving networked application or service availability and reliability by addressing robustness and resiliency factors before any networked product is deployed into a production environment. Mu Security commissioned Network Strategy Partners (NSP) to conduct first-hand interviews to quantify real-world revenue loss and customer churn metrics with a new hands-on study of providers including 4 case studies. To help operators measure their potential revenue loss due to robustness issues, Mu and NSP also created a new online ROI calculator and best-practice whitepaper. Webcast participants will be presented with first-hand research including: " Why should network services and products undergo robustness analysis and testing? " What is the ROI for using a Security Analyzer appliance solution? " What financial and staffing impact will security analysis provide towards Network Operation TCO? " What organizations benefit from using the Mu-4000? " What are service provider and product vendor use cases? Be sure to bring your questions! After the presentation, the webcast will be open for a live Q&A.
