Node4, a data center and communications firm, has selected Verscom Solutions, a solutions provider and IP services enabler for wireline and wireless carriers and service providers, to upgrade its softswitching infrastructure, which will increase call handling capacity and accommodate expanding international traffic. In addition, the latter will support a secure migration of Node4’s subscriber databases.

Verscom Solutions improved Node4’s call handling capacity by upgrading its softswitch infrastructure and simplifying the network edge with secure management, routing and control of real-time voice and multimedia sessions.

Richard Buxton, voice services manager for Node4, said, “We are pleased to upgrade our network capacity requirements and infrastructure with minimal service disruptions, while ensuring a secure migration of our subscriber info and history. Verscom Solutions has delivered a flexible, advanced, and cost-effective solution that enables us to significantly expand international traffic. As a trusted partner of Node4 with a strong local presence in our region, we were confident that Verscom Solutions’ professional services team and market-proven solutions were ideally suited for our complex business requirements.”

Mehmet Balos (News - Alert), CEO of Verscom Solutions, said, “Node4 is an outstanding, fast growth operator in the UK and we are delighted to empower the company with best-of-breed solutions and professional services that support increased call handling capacity. As an engineering-excellence organization, Verscom Solutions provides a comprehensive support strategy fully consistent with the needs and requirements of Node4, including a complex softswitch upgrade and data migration.”

Recently, Node4 introduced a cloud-based infrastructure, nCloud, that offers organizations ultimate IT flexibility by allowing them to build a bespoke solution that works hand in glove with business requirements.

Using Node4's network of data centers, nCloud enables organizations to select the services they need and outsource the hosting of their applications and services to suit their current business strategy. With the platform, an organization has the flexibility and control over which of its IT assets it wishes to outsource. Also, an organization that keeps specifically sensitive information on its own private infrastructure can continue to do so. Everything else can be delivered through Node4's shared platform that can dramatically change how a company utilizes its IT services.
