PARIS and HERNDON, Va. -- InfoVista S.A. (Euronext IFV - FR0004031649), the leader in service-centric performance management software, today announced that its VistaInsight® solutions have been selected by Telefónica International to provide performance management across Telefónica Latin America, the collective name for all of Telefónica’s subsidiaries in South America. InfoVista is working in partnership with Telefónica I+D, Telefónica’s research and development subsidiary, on the design and implementation of the roll out as part of the SIGRES (Sistema Integrado de Gestión de Redes y Servicios) project—an initiative to gain consistency across Telefónica Latin America’s network OSS technology.
InfoVista’s performance management platform based on its VistaInsight® for Networks, VistaInsight® for Servers, and VistaFoundation® 2.0 software is being rolled out across the public infrastructure backbone and access network (DSLAM) of all of Telefónica’s South American subsidiaries to provide real-time, historical and future insight into network performance. The automated, integrated and end to end view of service delivery the InfoVista software provides will cover approximately 50,000 network devices. It will enable Telefónica to proactively manage all services, isolate and resolve issues before degradation occurs, optimize capacity levels and internally plan service assurance.
"The fact that InfoVista had built an impressive reputation with the Telefónica Group based on the work it had done with subsidiaries throughout Spain, gave us confidence to bid for the SIGRES project with InfoVista," explained Francisco Jariego, OSS managing director for Telefónica I+D. "We are developing a partnership to assure that the scalability, reliability and value of its solutions outperform any other vendor in the market."
The SIGRES project covers Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Peru and Columbia, is now about to enter into the first phase roll out process which includes around 3-4 million residential customers. Initially, the InfoVista roll out is focused on internal reporting only and monitoring the backbone and access network. However, in the future, Telefónica Latin America plans to move InfoVista to customer-facing functions to include reporting on customers’ applications and IT infrastructures such as managed services.
