Cisco announced it has completed its acquisition of service
fulfillment software assets and associated employees from the UK subsidiary
(formerly Axiom Systems) of Comptel.
The acquisition gives Cisco the ability to extend network
and service management technologies across its Internet Protocol (IP) network
platforms, allowing service providers to efficiently launch new video, data,
mobility and cloud services to their customers.
Cisco
acquired the AXIOSS software suite, a fulfillment platform that strengthens the
Cisco service provider management offering by automating ordering and
fulfillment. The software provides management capabilities for network services
across Cisco’s five company priorities. It also enhances Cisco Prime, which enables
service providers to better manage their networks and network services.
By integrating service management and fulfillment
capabilities into Cisco Prime, Cisco continues to demonstrate its commitment to
innovate around the convergence of services and networks.
The AXIOSS team brings strong software development and
professional services skills to support the Cisco Prime platform. With the
close of the acquisition, the AXIOSS team joins the Cisco Network Management
Technology and Cisco Advanced Services Groups.
Cisco recently announced
the Cisco Enterprise Content Delivery System (ECDS), a set of video
distribution products that work together to address IT leaders’ growing
challenge of delivering the highest-quality live and on-demand video content to
end users anywhere, anytime.
Enterprise IT leaders are facing rapidly rising demands
for video on already overloaded networks. ECDS provides a seamless way to
manage the video load on the wide area network
(WAN) and, at the same time, help control the cost of extending video
applications across the organization.
