Integration

Market research proves the key pain point in deploying policy is the need for integration of the policy elements with multiple 3rd party systems. This bottleneck for deployment not only has technical challenges, but also has logistic challenges of coordinating with multiple teams, 3rd party vendors, and understanding the complexity of interface APIs to propose a suitable solution.

GGSN deployments are complex since most GGSN vendors have multi-year managed services contracts with the operator. Any changes to the GGSN - integrating with other products, or opening up interfaces - need to go through the GGSN vendor, making deployment of progressive solutions and integrating policy solutions expensive.

Torres Inline Intelligence reduces this deployment cost, effort and pain by avoiding complex interfaces of Rating and Policy Control server with network elements like GGSN or the routing infrastructure, yet still provides powerful, seamless policy enforcement. The solution can provide most of the visibility provided by the GGSNwithout the headaches of dealing with expensive GGSN Vendors.
