Partnership enables network carriers to rapidly analyze and correlate
large volumes of data to optimize operational efficiency and deliver the
highest standards in Quality of Experience
Infobright,
the database analytics platform for the Internet of Things (IoT), today
announced that it has partnered with EXFO
Inc. (NASDAQ: EXFO; TSX: EXF), provider of next-generation test,
service assurance and end-to-end Quality of Experience (QoE) solutions
in the global telecommunications industry, to help operators and service
providers improve their service and revenue agility, optimize their
operational efficiency throughout the service lifecycle, and increase
the customer QoE.
As the demand for reliable, high-performance networks continues to
increase with the rise of virtualization and cloud-based service
offerings, EXFO recognized the need to provide their customers with an
in-depth view of their network performance in order to proactively
identify and address issues impacting network service. By partnering
with Infobright to embed the company’s Enterprise Edition (IEE) into
their existing infrastructure, EXFO is able to provide its customers
with real-time, end-to-end performance monitoring and reporting of their
networks.
“Infobright’s analytic database platform allows us to ingest massive
amounts of data to provide real-time information to our customers so
that they can adapt more quickly to market demand and scale with
demand,” said Claudio Mazzuca, Vice-President of EXFO's Transport and
Service Assurance Division. “Infobright’s ad-hoc query speed and high
compression rates accelerate the extraction of rich intelligence from a
multitude of datasets, giving our customers actionable insights into
their network operations. This helps them stay ahead of the curve with
their converged, IP-fixed and mobile network offerings.”
The combined Infobright and EXFO solution allows for a faster and more
cost-effective way to crunch data that provides network carriers with a
cloud infrastructure optimization that massively reduces compute and
storage resources; a real-time big data platform that increases
visibility into network operations; complex analytics and a service
index to simplify processes; and elimination of the DBA (Database
Administrator) tax.
“We are delighted to be working with the team at EXFO.
Telecommunications carriers are facing a growing need for speed and
agility as they look to compete with more nimble IP-based Multimedia
Service (IMS) models who are spinning out new services at accelerated
rates,” said Don DeLoach, Infobright President and CEO. “By integrating
Infobright into their offerings, EXFO is able to provide their customers
with operationalized intelligence into their network data, allowing them
to stay competitive in a rapidly evolving marketplace.”
