Bouygues Telecom selects Openwave's traffic management solution

Openwave Systems has announced that Bouygues Telecom, a French mobile operator that is part of the Bouygues Group, has selected Openwave's traffic management solution to manage and optimize its network traffic.

Openwave's traffic management solution monitors and controls a range of IP (TCP- and UDP-based) data flows within the Bouygues mobile network. Openwave's monitoring features will enable Bouygues Telecom to obtain better insights into network usage patterns and help them to define and anticipate new subscriber behaviours.

Openwave's traffic management solution will reportedly allow Bouygues Telecom to offer a variety of tiered subscriber plans that reflect actual usage.

In addition, the Openwave traffic management solution will also allow information to be logged on each IP session to enable 'hot-billing' based on duration and volume consumed, giving Bouygues Telecom the capability to control network resources that bind service tiers to real-time parameters, and provides a framework for even more sophisticated and proactive all IP policy management going forward.

John Giere, senior vice president of products and marketing at Openwave, said: "The current growth of data consumption on mobile networks is unprecedented, and operators need an intelligent way to manage the influx of traffic. Openwave's in-network software solution combines a powerful workflow engine with a flexible policy management system, to enable Bouygues Telecom to manage its network more efficiently."
