Mavenir's Cloud-Native Solutions
Mavenir said the newly launched 4G and 5G network services by ENet are powered by its microservice-based architecture for fully automated cloud environments.
The solutions provided include Mavenir's Cloud-Native IMS, which facilitates mobile voice services and modern operations through continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) in containerized environments. This approach enhances productivity and maximizes network investments.
Optimized User Experience: Quality of Service Control
In addition, Mavenir's 3GPP standard-compliant Policy and Charging Rules Function (PCRF) ensures granular control over the Quality of Service for data and voice on ENet's 4G+5G network. This allows for optimized user experiences and efficient resource management.
Swift Implementation and Flexible Billing Solutions
ENet's swift implementation of new services is made possible by Mavenir's Digital Enablement (MDE) BSS Platform. Through a flexible, containerized Business Support System (BSS), ENet can introduce services seamlessly. The MDE platform comprises an App and Portal, providing subscribers with a seamless digital self-service experience.
