Carriers and service providers are working today in a highly competitive environment. The customer has multiple choices for access – cable, DSL, satellite, fixed-wireless IP, hosting and wholesale – and many more when selecting his data centre provider. And switching providers is easy. In addition, many carriers have made huge investments in network infrastructure, such as access and backbone networks, and find themselves with decreasing revenues (due to competition) on the other side.
Carriers and service providers are operating in a highly competitive environment. Price erosion and the number of alternatives are continual threats to both profitability and revenue growth. In addition their existing customer base has the ability to switch between providers relatively simply compared to the past. Service providers need and many are looking to:
1. Obtain more efficiency from the existing infrastructure and partners in order to maintain price competitiveness
Avoiding application class saturation, accurately classifying traffic into appropriate classes and the avoidance of additional latency at the MPLS edge must be addressed in order to obtain a cost effective and reliable MPLS service that delivers on the business needs of an organisation. Some MPLS providers do support dynamic bursting between classes. Opteq can help by adding granularity to the bursting process allowing one to choose which applications can dynamically burst in order of priority into remaining unused bandwidth in different classes.
