I’d been seeing interesting Google hits land on my blog for this for months now. This helps fill out some gaps in network quality and performance management and monitoirng in service provider networks, specifically wireless and radio access networks. This will be part of the Netcool pillar under the Tivoli brand.
From the PR: (link here)
“Vallent is a leading supplier of network performance monitoring and service management software for wireless service providers worldwide. Vallent’s software helps service providers manage the performance of their network infrastructure through monitoring and reporting problem areas such as dropped calls and traffic bottlenecks. It also helps operators improve wireless service quality and identify network problems before they impact a customer’s experience.
The combination of Vallent’s software and IBM’s comprehensive management capabilities will enable service providers to deliver and manage end-to-end high quality services across wireline, wireless, IP and converged fixed/mobile network infrastructures. Adding Vallent to IBM Tivoli Software’s Netcool portfolio creates a broad set of service assurance capabilities spanning fault, network performance and service quality management over a wide array of technologies and third-party equipment and applications. Vallent will augment IBM’s ability to help communications service providers manage their networks as they deploy innovative new services while migrating from legacy to next generation infrastructures.”
