Telecom Application Server

In the rapidly evolving world of telecom services, Network Equipment Manufacturers (NEMs) are posed with the unique challenge of not only implementing new innovative voice and data services within existing networks but also evolving their services towards Next-Generation IP Networks. A Service Delivery Platform (SDP) is one such element that unifies service creation and provides a solid and scalable foundation for Intelligent Networks (IN) and Next-Generation IN applications across mobile, fixed, and IP networks. In addition, NEMs need to provide service brokers to implement solutions such as IN replacement/migration, IN-to-IN and IN-to-IMS mediation, and service orchestration.

Aricent offers a wide range of software frameworks and product engineering services to help network equipment manufactures and application vendors develop and maintain feature-rich telecom application servers. Our re-usable software frameworks can easily integrate with existing network architectures across multiple platforms, delivering accelerated time to market along with considerable reductions in costs.
