Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
BEA Systems has added more than 20 new partners to its telecommunications partner ecosystem.
BEA already has a significant IT presence in the telecommunications industry through its BEA WebLogic and Tuxedo products, and by working with Intel Corporation and partners HP, Convergys, CSG, elata, EMC, Intec Telecom Systems, Metasolv, MobileAware, TietoEnator and Amdocs.
These partners have now been joined by Acme Packet, AePONA, AudioCodes, Brooktrout Technology, Convedia, Digital X, Foundry Networks, InCode, Infosys Technologies, Intervoice, IP Unity, ILOG, IONA, Mahindra British Telecom (MBT), MySQL, Net4Call, NetCentrex, SandCherry, Turnberry Solutions, Wily Technology and others.
BEA claims to be the leading supplier to the industry of application server and transaction processing technologies for use in service delivery platforms (SDP), as well as in the operational support system and billing support system (OSS/BSS) domain and says it aims to become the leading network services infrastructure vendor.
Intel and BEA have recently completed a benchmark that, according to BEA "demonstrates the scalability and price-performance leadership of WebLogic SIP Server running on Intel hardware."
The two companies are engaged in defining what they say is "a systematic set of benchmarks that will help establish clear, measurable, and quantifiable metrics to calibrate a variety of infrastructure components in the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) architecture, including for example, the SIP application server."
BEA says that such a standardised set of benchmarks will make it easier for telecom operators to compare and contrast various vendor offerings, judge compliance with various industry standards, and more effectively dimension their systems for anticipated levels of load.
