Voice and data convergence is arriving in the here and now. User needs, expanded service offerings, and device mobility are ruling Location-Based Services (LBS) in ASIA, Europe, and are emerging in the USA. Mobile phones and wireless devices are expected to triple in the next years, recaching comfortably into the hundreds of millions. E911 location awareness is now mandated in the United States. Wireless providers must keep pace with the proliferation of instant messaging, which already reaches into the 10s of billions each hour, and is expected to reach unprecedented rates in the next 2 years. Looking for value-add services, Wireless Providers are looking for ways to reduce back-office costs, expand services, and increase revenue.
High transaction rates for processing small messaging, the convergence of services reaching across the voice/data barrier, Location-Based Services, wide distribution and high availability required to scale when and as necessary to meet the need, represent the next horizon that Wireless Providers must provide.
Wireless Providers do not just need more performance at better price-points, but convenient scalability for unprecedented growth in transaction processing, in a replicated environment that can keep availability high. Imagine synchronous replication, processing at speeds that other technologies cannot provide in native, non-replicated mode. XPress XTN provides this today - and more cost-effectively and scalably than any other alternative in the world.
These needs can be all reduced to an infrastructure's ability to locate network-wide objects with performance, transparency, scalability, and resiliency. Enter XPress XTN, the Association Database for wireline and wireless communications designed to provide just such key-value association management that networked short messaging needs of any variety require:
Providers no longer have to install general purpose databases with high costs for performance, cautiously sufficient replication performance for availability. They now have a tool built for the high performance that their customers require, and will require increasingly in the future, in a form- and cost-factor that saves money now, increases performance now, and can linearly scale whenever needed - to any degree.
