TORONTO, Nov. 28, 2017 /CNW/ - Redknee Solutions Inc.
(TSX: RKN), a leading provider of business-critical billing and
charging software and solutions for communications service
providers (CSPs), today announced they are beginning to offer
Google Cloud Spanner to Redknee customers.
"Oracle has been the gold standard in telecom for decades. Now,
with Google's Cloud Spanner technology, Redknee can deliver a
solution that's ten times more scalable for the world's largest
telcos. For example, with our largest Oracle database, we've
processed 50K transactions per second, while on Cloud Spanner,
we've reached north of 500K," said Danielle
Royston, CEO, Redknee. "This allows us to significantly
improve performance for our customers, with a dramatically reduced
total cost of ownership."
Increased competition between telcos and the ever-growing demand
for on-the-go and on-demand connectivity put CSPs under pressure to
continually position and align themselves with leading-edge
technologies. The unique capabilities of Cloud Spanner will help
CSPs increase revenue, reduce costs, serve more subscribers, and
identify and develop new solutions and strategies.
"It goes without saying that for CSPs speed and scale are
becoming even more important. After a very successful collaboration
between Redknee and Google Cloud engineering teams, we are thrilled
to integrate this data processing innovation into our products,"
added Royston.
The general availability of Cloud Spanner Multi-Region
configurations was announced earlier this month by Google Cloud.
Cloud Spanner revolutionizes database management and
administration. It is unique among relational databases and cloud
database services as it offers a globally consistent, low latency
and scalable relational database. Cloud Spanner also delivers an
industry-leading 99.999% availability SLA with no planned
downtime.
"We are excited to deliver Cloud Spanner to CSPs, who have told
us they want an alternative to Oracle. It's another step forward in
our relentless pursuit of Customer Success, helping our customers
achieve and exceed their strategic business goals," said
Royston.
