Greenpacket on Thursday announced successful interoperability testing with 3GPP-compliant ANDSF policy servers, such as Bridgewater. The company says this represents a strategic combination of client and server-side technologies that enable end-to-end network to end-user deployment of dynamic data offload for global operators.
The ANDSF connectivity client solution makes it possible for operators to maintain and extend network-level data traffic policies and controls on its subscribers, even when they switch to Wi-Fi networks. The ANDSF client provides real-time or predicted measure of the network’s congestion levels and intelligently selects a better network for its subscribers. As a result, subscribers will always experience better service, smooth and seamless connectivity networks from the operators.
“Most operators in the market already have policy controllers within their networks," said Kelvin Lee, senior general manager of Greenpacket. “Now, with Greenpacket’s ANDSF client, operators can ride on the wide availability of Wi-Fi hotspots as their next step, in deploying dynamic data offload for better service delivery."
Greenpacket’s ANDSF client, together with its partner’s policy controller, is currently being tested by some of its existing software customers. The company is also in discussion with other major global operators in North America and APAC regions for the integrated offering.
The ANDSF client is part of Greenpacket’s Intouch Connectivity Management Platform (ICMP) software to deliver the best in Mobility Management.
