MVNO partnerships are expected to see an increase in the type of end-services brought to market. The MVNO model enables virtual operators to focus exclusively on designing and rolling out various services that respond to current market needs without having to manage the complexities of expanding and managing the network infrastructure and systems. Alepo Technologies, Inc., a leading provider of control plane & business management solutions for next generation services, is extending its services for the management of MVNO partnerships and recently announced the successful deployment of its Partner and Affiliate Module for Cielux, a service provider in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Cielux’s existing Alepo Billing System will continue providing support for internal rating and charging while extending the network’s utility into partner networks. In 2012 Cielux began branding its super-fast Internet service under the name INET while upgrading their previous Alepo elements to the latest versions including Service Enabler 8.1, Alepo’s 16e AAA Server, and PCRF Lite. Now, it has added the MNVO module, allowing Cielux to use their core network as backhaul for a diverse profile of service providers, each with customized web self-care portals and automated customer hotlining to the relevant MVNO.
“As the market for 4G services expand, it’s crucial that we meet demand by expanding our market share in intelligent and cost-effective ways,” stated Ashwini Kumar Gogoi, CEO, INET/Cielux. “Our continual partnership with Alepo has provided us with these tools, and our current project is no exception.”
“We are excited to continue our long-standing partnership with Cielux by introducing our MVNO customization,” stated Brandon Johnson, VP of Services at Alepo. “We are committed to helping our partners increase their market footprint with savvy network expansions such as Cielux’s.”
