● Keep cost under control while growing services
● Leverages TelScale USSD and SMSC for messaging
● POC phase on RestComm. Integration with TelScale USSD and SMSC for building new services
Key considerations
● Better capabilities, distinctive competencies and cost advantage, leading to value creation
● Low cost, fast deployment times, can be deployed on current IT virtualization cluster
● Stability at high throughput● Diameter / billing integration, if required
● Excellent personalized support!
And from an operators view ...
● Low deployment time frames and ease of deployment
● Less time to market for applications (VERY Important)
● OPEX wise its absolutely cheap too
● consolidation is another important bit ( you can consolidate USSD & SMSC ) on one single hardware

Inflection Point for SPs
● Line, WhatsApp, Viber, etc. made Messaging and Voice a FREE commodity
● Telco price war and race to the bottom across the industry across the world
● The world is moving to non-metered IP Communications
● Growing costs for data services as more content is consumed
● Getting a 3G license meant being vulnerable to OTTs, how to address that ?
The Opportunity● Legacy telecom infrastructure will remain a key asset for a long time● Moving from traditional vendors to FOSS for lower cost and more flexible
core network components
● Shift to IP communications is accelerating● Real Time Communications is still out of reach for most Web and Mobile
App developers. Enable them to build Services !

for Web and Mobile Developers to build and scale Voice, Video,
