Multi-technology automatic service activation
Activation Engine is a service agnostic and highly configurable activation platform for CSPs. It brings CSPs closer to zero-touch paradigms and helps you deliver legacy and future services.
Some benefits
Activate automatically any service on any network.
- Cloud native: Deploy and scale at will anywhere and anytime you need it.
- Service and vendor agnostic: Get around vendor lock-in and offer high value-added services.
- Controlled activation flow: Avoid network congestion.
- Business rules bassed configuration: Configure service activation with a higher level of abstraction for OSS/BSS NBIs.
Follow all your orders intuitively
Manage all service activations efficiently.
- Real-time service activation monitoring.
- Detailed view of activation orders.
- Drill down to the lowest level.
- Get all the associated information by querying your activation orders.
Configure everything
Become self-sufficient in your service activations.
- Configure rules and left the engine decide what network elements to activate and what commands to run.
- Set up the right retrial and priorization policies.
- Design activation commands easily.
- Control network element activation with queues.
- Create and plug-in your own protocols using a powerful SDK.
