Dialogic, Tuesday announced that it has successfully completed certification of its PowerMedia™ XMS Media Server Virtualized Network Function (VNF) in Nokia’s cloud infrastructure.
According to Dialogic, PowerMedia XMS has also completed interoperability testing with Nokia’s OpenTAS application server, a core component of Nokia’s VoLTE offering. PowerMedia XMS’s virtualized media processing capabilities include voice mail, Interactive Voice Response, voice and video conferencing, tones, announcements, and support region-specific telephony deployments. The PowerMedia XMS VNF provides very distinct features to allow operators to quickly roll out value-added multimedia IMS/VoLTE and innovative services specific to their customers.
The certification of PowerMedia XMS also includes Level 2 certification test covering the implementation of the PowerMedia VNF in Nokia’s reference cloud platform (VMware-based) using the resources of the underlying Nokia CloudBandTM Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) Infrastructure layer.

Interoperability is a huge concern for operators not only between virtualized applications but also within their cloud computing environments. Activities like this validate PowerMedia’s flexibility and openness not only with other vendors’ VNFs, but also with third party Management and Orchestrations (MANO) solutions.
