Incognito Software Announces General Availability of Auto Configuration Server 2.0

Vancouver, B.C. (PRWEB) June 28, 2012

Incognito Software, a global provider of broadband software provisioning and activation solutions, today announced the general availability of Auto Configuration Server 2.0. This new device management software incorporates a highly reliable automation solution that supports a wide number of access networks, such as PON, DOCSIS, ADSL, WiMAX, and more, all without sacrificing performance.

By using Incognitos Auto Configuration Server 2.0, telecom and cable providers can now monitor and regulate subscriber device thresholds based on a wide range of reporting parameters, from amount of bandwidth used to average session time. As a result, an almost endless array of customized reports can be instantly generated whenever needed without the concern that performance will be impacted.

As the number of TR-069 enabled customer devices reached more than 147 million this past year, an increasing number of cable operators have embraced this protocol which had previously been used almost exclusively by the telecom industry for provisioning and managing residential gateways. Incognito Auto Configuration Server 2.0 utilizes TR-069 to facilitate zero-touch provisioning and management of WiMAX networks, DOCSIS gateways, VoIP equipment, WiFi access points, and IPTV deployments to help both cable and telecom providers decrease operational costs by minimizing truck rollouts and accelerate time-to-revenue for new service deployments.

TR-069 based devices can additionally be quickly provisioned to support an extensive array of services, such as WiFi management, parental controls, VoIP, storage, IPTV, and more. As a result of Incognitos TR-069 Open Interop Program, which was created in October 2011 and assists providers in determining whether they adhere to the basic TR-069 standard as defined by the Broadband Forum, Incognito supports nearly every TR-069 based device currently on the market.

From a subscriber standpoint, Incognitos Auto Configuration Server 2.0 also offers the added benefit of device backup and restore, which allows operators to automatically replicate settings in a subscribers replacement device. With the ability to add a user-friendly online portal, subscribers can now obtain detailed information regarding both their account terms and their existing network devices to offer an added level of visibility and control.

Service providers are quickly realizing that they need to expand their service offerings in order to retain their existing subscribers while also attracting new ones, said Stephane Bourque, president and CEO of Incognito Software. Auto Configuration Server 2.0 provides a suite of new features alongside our market-proven automation software to help alleviate these industry challenges and help our customers build new revenue streams.

Direct Line Auto Insurance Achieves Cost-efficient Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery with DataCore SANsymphony-V Storage Hypervisor

Berlin and Fort Lauderdale, Fla. (PRWEB) December 15, 2011

DataCore Software, the industrys premier provider of storage virtualization software, announced that a premier German insurance company Direct Line Versicherung AG has implemented its business continuity and disaster recovery architecture on a storage infrastructure built on the DataCore storage hypervisor SANsymphony-V foundation. The high-speed and highlyavailable synchronous mirroring functionality of the DataCore solution enables Direct Line to set up a backup and disaster recovery data center located 40 kilometers away in order to minimize downtime and to ensure speedy recovery in case of a failure at the primary data center. The combination of a storage hypervisor with server hypervisors provides a flexible, high-performance and fail safe IT infrastructure that virtualizes storage hardware with SANsymphony-V and server hardware with VMware vSphere.

“DataCore SANsymphony-V provides Direct Line a cost-effective and efficient business continuity solution supporting high-availability and disaster recovery across multiple sites, without neglecting performance or data protection aspects. The DataCore solution is a strategic component in our daily business, says Heiko Teichmann, managing director at IT service provider Teserco and project manager on behalf of Direct Line Versicherung.

According to a recent German consumer report Stiftung Warentest, the automobile insurance company Direct Line offers an excellent price-performance return to its customers. While many factors are involved, this can also be attributed to having a cost advantage in its IT infrastructure. In addition to meeting the disaster recovery requirements and flexibility of the central IT services, the storage hypervisor SANsymphony-V provides greater potential for additional cost savings. Thanks to its hardware independence and the efficient caching algorithms of the DataCore solution, Direct Line can not only use its installed and cost-effective HP P2000 disk subsystems but with DataCore also remove the functional or performance limitations that would have prevented them from future use. Today, around 75 terabytes of data are now managed in the main data center, located in Teltow, and at the remote data center in Berlin, which meets the requirements set by the highest data protection category (Tier 4). The synchronized, mirrored data is transported over a 6 Gb dark fiber connection between the two sites.

In addition to adding a new level of data protection and reliability, Direct Line benefits from an increased efficiency in productivity and flexibility during the year-end, peak business season, which adds an increased spike in business volume and much higher IT-workloads. The ability to work as an active-active operation across both data centers is made possible by SANsymphony-Vs ability to stretch the shared storage across the two sites. This allows the insurance company to move virtual machines and storage resources across different locations on-the-fly and with little effort.
