New Version of Former BEA WebLogic Communications Software Further Enables Next-Generation IP Services HONG KONG, July 14
HONG KONG, July 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- BROADBAND WORLD FORUM ASIA --
-- Delivering a carrier-grade, standards-based environment for services
exposure, services-layer policy enforcement, partner relationship management
and network-access control, Oracle announced today the availability of Oracle
Communications Services Gatekeeper 4.0 (formerly BEA WebLogic Network
Gatekeeper).
-- A key component of the newly unveiled Oracle Communications Service
Delivery portfolio (See related announcement.)
(http://www.oracle.com/corporate/press/2008_jul/OCSD.html), Oracle
Communications Services Gatekeeper enables network operators to enhance the
quality and monetization of their service delivery platforms (SDP), cost-
effectively scale their third-party developer and partner ecosystems and
rapidly expand their portfolios of revenue-generating communication and data
services.
Oracle Communications Services Gatekeeper 4.0 Detail
-- Oracle Communications Services Gatekeeper 4.0 extends its open
standards-based service exposure layer with additional value-added, Web
services-based enablers for messaging, call control and profiles. The added
enablers can be exposed to third-party Web and application developers to allow
network operators to create new and innovative revenue-generating services
more rapidly and easily.
-- This latest product release enhances the service provider's ability to
customize and extend the Oracle Communications Services Gatekeeper platform.
Delivering enhanced service creation and policy customization tools, the
software allows third-party developers and system integrators to create new
services more easily while allowing operators to better centralize policy
enforcement. This ability helps deliver rapid time-to-revenue, while
maintaining a high service quality.
-- By integrating with Oracle's comprehensive business and operational
support system (BSS/OSS) applications, Oracle Communications Services
Gatekeeper ensures that service providers can quickly and efficiently fulfill,
market and monetize new services and enable the partner value chain.
-- Further, the platform's open, standards-based service-oriented
architecture (SOA) framework and support for industry standards such as Java
Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE), Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and
Diameter, make it less expensive for service providers to quickly deploy.
-- More than 30 service providers worldwide have selected Oracle
Communications Service Gatekeeper and its previous versions to efficiently
enable the delivery of next-generation, IP-based content and application
services.
