Optiva on Monday announced that Truphone, a UK-based MVNO that provides voice and data services using eSIM, migrated and deployed Optiva Charging Engine on Google Cloud.
Aiming to liberate itself from telecom’s traditional IT approach of a heavily customized BSS stack, Truphone wanted a new, cost-effective productized solution to help them with their strategic growth objectives, said Optiva. Early results from the implementation of Optiva Charging Engine demonstrate the proven benefits of truly cloud-native software deployed on the public cloud.
When fully implemented, Truphone’s current on-premise OCS, along with its associated OCS testing and disaster recovery systems, will be replaced with one OCS in the public cloud that leverages the global consistency offered by Google Cloud. This results in an always-available and inherently redundant setup. Google’s offering of world-class telco-grade security, compliance standards and global-scale infrastructure were also key in Truphone’s decision to move to the public cloud.
Truphone’s upgrade to public cloud also includes a multi-year support agreement with Optiva, which will further help Truphone maximize its value, monetization and results.

As promised, Truphone has realized huge TCO savings with their charging system — all which could be achieved only by migrating to the public cloud.
