Oracle has announced that it and Telefónica I+D, the research and development company of the Telefónica Group, have completed a process of definition, developing and testing to allow Oracle’s Tekelec Policy Server (PCRF) to extend mobile policy management to fixed broadband networks.
This will allow the use of Policy Server and Oracle’s Tekelec Subscriber Profile Repository (SPR), or subscriber database, in a fixed-mobile convergence (FMC) environment. This trial is further evidence of Telefónica’s commitment to build a leading, ubiquitous smart network and enable subscribers to tailor their network experience across devices and accesses.
“Service providers have a tremendous untapped potential to create and offer new innovative broadband data services that both increase revenues and increase customer loyalty,” said Albert Fernandez, senior director of Europe Sales, Oracle Communications. “The first step is testing and implementing intelligent network technologies that give service providers a path to software-defined networks. We are excited to work with Telefónica I+D – Global CTO Unit as one of the great innovators in the field of networks.”
