Solutions Overview

Enabling Better Broadband with Network Policy Control

Sandvine is dedicated to building solutions that allow today’s DSL, FTTx, cable, fixed wireless and mobile data service providers to increase network profitability while improving the quality of experience (QoE) for the consumer. Network Policy Control is a network and service management technique that supports all access technologies, all users and all applications to:

1. Identify convergent network conditions including subscriber, application and location
2. Evaluate in real-time business logic rules to make policy decisions locally
3. Enforce policy actions locally and remotely that affect network conditions and subscriber experiences

Using Network Business Intelligence to Increase Profitability

A critical requirement of successful Internet business strategy is sufficient data to make informed decisions regarding service plans, management policies, capital investments and premium services. Service providers have long since had access to detailed information from billing and operations systems, but only recently is that information being combined with application-level awareness of per-subscriber Internet usage.

Sandvine calls this level of insight “network business intelligence”, and with it service providers can combine application-level, subscriber-aware network data with financial objectives, assumptions and data from billing systems to accurately model network operation at a business level.
