The EAGLE XG platform is purpose-built to deliver the most demanding next-generation network services and database applications.
Overview
The demand for mobile and media-rich applications is increasing, and operators worldwide are retooling their networks to make the shift from voice- to data-centric services. As they make that transition, providers must navigate a host of new challenges to maintain and grow their business. New network elements, technology and protocols must interwork seamlessly with existing resources to ensure a transparent service experience.
Product Description
The EAGLE XG platform, in conjunction with the EAGLE 5 platform, supports Tekelec’s Session Management and Subscriber Data Management (SDM) product families.
The platform consists of:
- A telco-grade, field proven Linux-based operating system – Tekelec Platform Distribution (TPD)
- A middleware layer, AppWorks, providing application and OAM&P framework
- Intel-based hardware equipped with blade servers and/or NEBS-compliant, rack-mounted servers
Benefits
- Simplify network consolidation and migration. Operators can normalize network resources with different protocols or variants of the same protocol without costly switch upgrades or re-architecting the network. The EAGLE XG platform simplifies network migration, enabling providers to introduce new resources and applications that interwork seamlessly with existing, legacy components. Operators can deliver rich, multimedia applications without deploying a full-blown IMS network
- Improve network routing. Operators can consolidate network routing information in a single, unified database which can be accessed by multiple clients over a variety of query protocols. With the platform’s flexible routing tool, operators can manipulate the SIP session to enable routing features such as time-of-day, least cost, and load sharing
- Simplify database provisioning. By consolidating subscriber, service and network routing information into a single subscriber data server (SDS), the EAGLE XG platform eliminates the need to manage, maintain and update multiple databases
- Increase average revenue per user (ARPU). Tekelec's solution enables "sticky," high-end, blended services in intelligent, pre-IMS, IMS and 3G/4G networks by coordinating and managing the interaction of multiple applications for a single session. Operators can mix services from multiple domains to create unique service packages that increase revenue and improve customer retention – all supported by a variety of billing options. The platform’s rules-based service logic enables operators to rapidly develop and verify interaction and mediation logic as they create and package applications. New standards and protocols can be deployed and engaged quickly with the platform’s simple plug-in modules
- Lower operations cost. The EAGLE XG supports multiple applications on a single platform, reducing operator equipment, maintenance and back-office integration costs
