Telco TV — Sacramento, Calif.-based OSSera has introduced a new performance-management framework designed to help communications services providers (CSPs) analyze up to millions of managed-resource and service metrics.
OSSera says the framework gives CSPs the power to process data in real-time to manage and monitor KPI/KQI’s, apply dynamic baselines, generate Threshold Crossing Alarms (TCAs), and track critical network resources as well as service quality.
OSSera Performance Manager leverages flexible data collectors, a distributed multi-threaded architecture, a flexible KPI/KQI formula builder, moving averages, multiple KPI/KQI reporting configurations, dynamic baselines and the ability to handle data holes as well as late arriving data to efficiently and proactively monitor performance, the company said.
The OSSera Performance Management Framework runs on the OSS Explorer Platform, which provides a Unified Data Model (UDM) between planning and operations and between resource management and service management. Therefore, the performance management functions can be applied at the resource-management level for network resources as well as at the service management level for value-added services across resource-facing and customer-facing services such as mobile and IPTV services.
"Using this platform we have been helping to plan, launch, and monitor Value-Added-Services in a Tier 1 mobile and broadband Service Provider and with this new product release we have added the ability to manage and monitor KPI/KQIs in real-time," said David Deng, CTO and co-founder, OSSera. “For example one of our customers has asked us to calculate a diverse set of formulas across different router speeds for IPTV services. They have a specific pain and we have the solution."
