Breaking the Barriers to Email Archiving for the Channel

The channel has excelled at selling email and data cloud services. But there is a BIG cloud revenue opportunity they’re missing out on: email archiving.

Historically, cloud-based email archiving has been a complex, time-consuming and expensive service to enable. This is because partners must switch back and forth between an array of applications and providers to meet all of the criteria needed for their customers’ archives, be it compliance, security or sources supported. This week, BitTitan and Sonian joined forces to overcome this.

The partnership combines the capabilities of BitTitan’s cloud-based email and data migration solution MigrationWiz with Sonian’s best-in-class cloud-based Email Archiving. The result is a single offering that enables the simple, secure and compliant migration, storage, access and management of email archives in Microsoft Office 365 and the cloud.

Further details on this new service, Sonian Cloud Archive by BitTitan, are available here.

APOLAN Helps Hotels Prepare Communication Networks for Current and Future Connectivity Demands

Association for Passive Optical LAN hosts webinar to discuss the benefits of fiber optic LAN for hospitality industry

NEW YORK, June 30, 2015 – The Association for Passive Optical LAN (APOLAN), a non-profit organization that is driving adoption and educating the market about the advantages of passive optical LAN, will host a webinar on Thursday, July 9 at 11 a.m. EDT. The Passive Optical LAN high performance choice for Hotels, Resorts and Entertainment networks webinar will discuss how passive optical LAN can accommodate both guests and IT managers network infrastructure requirements.

Hotel and resorts local area networks (LANs) are under immense pressure to ensure secure, reliable and fast network access for all guests. To meet connectivity needs, hotels have traditionally used copper-based LANs. However, this legacy infrastructure is not capable of meeting the increasing demand on networks. Simply upgrading a legacy network is no longer a viable option. Copper is not efficient, has limited bandwidth and is too expensive.

Fiber-based passive optical LAN is the solution to these challenges. Optical LAN provides substantial savings in capex and opex, while delivering dramatically faster, more efficient and secure networks, when compared to traditional copper-based infrastructure. Optical LAN also enables a robust network infrastructure, a key component in maintaining hospitality management systems running smoothly.

The webinar will showcase recent passive optical LAN deployments in the hospitality and entertainment markets, and discuss specific powering and system integration considerations from industry leaders, including:

  • Alan Bertsch – APOLAN Director (Qypsys)
  • Mark Conner – Corning Optical Communications
  • Rich Labonski – Zhone Technologies

CIOs, IT managers, design engineers, architects and building owners wanting to attend the upcoming webinar should visit here. For more information visit: http://apolanglobal.org/newsevents.html.

About The Association for Passive Optical LAN (APOLAN)

The Association for Passive Optical LAN is a non-profit organization that is driving adoption, and educating the market about the technical and economic advantages of passive optical LAN technology.

Through its members comprised of manufacturers, distributors, integrators and consulting companies actively involved in the marketplace, the Association hopes to help design engineers, architects, building owners, CIOs and IT departments succeed with passive optical LAN.

Edgeware Receives 2015 Cable Spotlight Product of the Year Award

Edgeware’s Video Consolidation Platform honored for exceptional innovation in enabling profitable, next-generation video services to the cable industry

STOCKHOLM June 29, 2015Edgeware, the leader in video delivery networks, announced today that its Video Consolidation Platform (VCP) has received a 2015 Cable Spotlight Product of the Year Award from Cable.TMCnet.com, a TMC sponsored cable technology website. Edgeware’s VCP is a highly accelerated and consolidated platform for the delivery of profitable, next-generation video services that reduces CAPEX by at least 50 percent. This win recognizes how the VCP cost-effectively enables the scalability, agility and the high QoE operators need in today’s competitive TV landscape.

Cable operators are challenged with meeting consumer demand for the latest video services to existing STBs, as well as multiscreen devices. Without Edgeware’s VCP, many service providers are forced to duplicate infrastructures and equipment to enable origination and delivery of content and services. In addition, operators are tasked with implementing a scalable solution that eliminates the need to overhaul their entire network.

Edgeware’s VCP solves these challenges by providing a single, highly consolidated solution for all device types and services. The VCP consists of two products: the VCP Edge, a highly-optimized CDN caching and distribution solution for a wide range of service applications and the VCP Origin, which optimizes the ingest and delivery of video content by collapsing separate traditional origin components into a single operating unit. These products have two enabling components, Edgeware’s Convoy Management Software and purpose-built Orbit servers.

The company has greatly expanded the capabilities of its widely deployed and proven Convoy Management Software. It serves as a SDN control and management platform, performing all the configuration and monitoring functions for assigning application-specific processes both to Edgeware’s Orbit servers and commodity hardware resources.

­­

The Orbit 3080 is the latest generation appliance that supports wire speed processing at 80 gigabits-per-second and delivers up to 128,000 concurrent streams to any combination of IP and legacy QAM connected devices from a single Rack Unit (RU). This equates to a ten-fold increase in throughput per RU compared to the highest performing generic servers.

“The cable industry in Europe has widely deployed our VCP as the foundation driving some of the most advanced pay TV services available with the quality that consumers now demand,” said Joachim Roos, CEO at Edgeware. “We see the U.S. market as primed to benefit from our enabling technology to accelerate innovation in the new IP video landscape.”

“It is my pleasure to recognize Edgeware with a Cable Spotlight Product of the Year Award for its contribution to the advancement of cable technology solutions,” said Rich Tehrani, CEO, TMC. “I look forward to seeing more innovation from Edgeware in the coming year.”
