Optiva this week announced a new customer who will utilize Optiva’s BSS platform on the public cloud. The operator will leverage the platform to launch a new mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) service.
The Optiva BSS platform, re-architected and made available on the public cloud, is Optiva’s new entry into the Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) market. The multi-tenant BSS platform allows customers to focus on their business, not on deploying and managing enterprise software. Customers design marketing plans, load subscribers and deploy their services — without having to install any software on premise. The deployment schedule for this customer will be completed in months, not years, providing a vastly different enterprise software experience not seen in the telco industry or the BSS product space to date.
The Optiva BSS platform offers full BSS functionality, including customer management, prepaid and postpaid revenue management, commercial and technical product catalogs and real-time convergent rating and charging for mobile customers. By utilizing the public cloud, it offers rapid, unlimited scale with capability for worldwide reach. The costs and complexities of bare metal or even virtualized enterprise software deployments are a thing of the past.
Danielle Royston, CEO of Optiva
We are excited to add a new customer to Optiva and even more thrilled they selected our company because of our public cloud approach to BSS. Such a solution didn’t exist in the telecom industry a year ago.
