Abstract
To understand the solutions being used by carriers to assure and grow revenue
from their valuable customers is the purpose of Dittberner' s new 144-page
report: The Telecom Mediation Market: Carrier Requirements for
Billing/Charging Mediation, System Consolidation, & Real-Time Control
Applications.
Dittberner sizes this telecommunications software market at $342 million in
2006. The report analyzes the forces shaping this market, providing case
studies of how carriers are using forward-thinking business practices and
software to capitalize on the opportunities. Here are some highlights from
the report:
3G' s Slow Take up Rate in Europe and the Americas is a big negative force for
the mediation market. Ironically, for operators in countries like Japan and
Korea, 3G is moving smartly forward because of better execution and a superior
business model. Dittberner' s report gives a frank appraisal of 3G' s future
and outlines some strategies for mediation vendors.
Real-time control applications are emerging that leverage mediation
technology. Essentially four capabilities are needed: 1) mediate events; 2)
analyze/correlate those events instantly; 3) rate in real-time (if billing or
charging is involved); and 4) provision things in near realtime. The report
provides two examples including a case study on how Telenet is implementing
bandwidth-on-demand with real-time mediation.
WiFi and WiBro technology show good long range potential as an efficient
technology to deliver cheap web browsing in urban areas and thereby complement
traditional telecom wireless networks. The report discusses the mediation
market implications of WiBro (a cousin of WiMax) and provides a detailed case
study of the first implementation by KT in Korea.
IMS is riding the telecom hype wave, but what' s its impact for mediation
vendors? The report explains how carriers are approaching IMS and how
mediators should position their IMS and network control capabilities.
New Opportunities that Build on Mediation Technology. With so much
competition in the mediation business, it behooves vendors to experiment with
new solutions and markets. Dittberner' s report provides examples of companies
who are launching new businesses that leverage their mediation know how.
