Integrates Service Impact Management and Service Quality Management in cloud native solution
Mobile World Congress, Barcelona, 27th February 2018 – MYCOM OSI, the leading independent provider of Assurance, Automation and Analytics solutions to the world’s largest Communications Service Providers (CSPs), today announced the latest version of its ProAssure™ Digital Service Quality Management solution. MYCOM OSI ProAssure™ 2.0 monitors and identifies root causes of service degradations of native, OTT and IoT digital services in near-real time and manages the impact on customers using these services.
Customer experience continues to be a key strategic differentiator for CSPs in the race to deliver an ever increasing range of on-demand consumer and enterprise digital services using virtualized technologies. This goal can only be achieved through real time proactive Digital Service Quality Management solutions that can deliver the agility and end to end visibility required to assure customer experience in this complex, rapidly changing environment.
Proactive management of the quality of digital services and their impact on customers enables CSPs to monetize the network through competitive SLAs to enterprise customers. By evolving their Network Operations Centers (NOC) to a Service Operations Center (SOC), CSPs can improve network and service quality and with it customer experience.
MYCOM OSI ProAssure™ 2.0 is an application within MYCOM OSI’s Experience Assurance and Analytics™ (EAA) suite of applications. The latest capabilities in MYCOM OSI ProAssure™ 2.0 include a new service impact analyzer, automated discovery and onboarding of service catalogues and topology, automated root cause analysis and cloud native deployment enabled through MYCOM OSI’s EAA Cloud Platform:
