Astellia, leading provider of network and subscriber intelligence for mobile operators, announced that it has signed a bi-lateral agreement for Operations Support System Interoperability Initiative (OSSii) with Nokia.
The OSSii initiative was started by Ericsson, Nokia and Huawei in May 2013 to promote OSS interoperability between different vendor equipment through the exposure of OSS interfaces and network data. The OSSii aims to simplify interoperability between OSS systems in a multi-vendor environment by providing easy access to interfaces that earlier were subject to restricted use, and will enable interoperability testing services to a wider industry community. The parties' general guiding principles for the OSSii are openness, fairness, reasonableness and non-discriminatory treatment.

The signed contract allows us to ensure advanced compatibility of Astellia solutions with Nokia infrastructure equipment. By this license agreement Nokia grants the access to interoperability tests specifications, and release plans on a selected scope.
