REDWOOD SHORES, Calif., June 25,
2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Proximus, a leading international
communications service provider, has chosen Oracle
Communications virtualized Oracle Session Border
Controller as a core network component to enable the delivery
of its residential and enterprise communications cloud-based
solutions for voice. As such, Proximus will be able to deploy its
internet communications offerings faster, while decreasing

cloud. In addition, the automated and orchestrated core network
will allow for adaptable capacity planning.

technologies to our customers in a way that simplifies and improves
their lives and work environments," said Laurent Claus, director service platforms &
cloud, Proximus. "This is why our choice of Oracle was on target.
Oracle Communications' SBC delivers unparalleled operational
efficiency and flexibility, which are essential as we continue to
scale our offerings and customer base."
"Given the scale and complexity of Proximus' network needs,
Oracle Communications is a strong fit," said Greg Collins, founder & principal analyst,
Exact Ventures. "As a tier-one communications service provider,
Proximus requires the speed, trust and innovation that Oracle can
deliver."
"Promixus has been a long time customer of Oracle Communications
and this deployment is an exciting next step in their digital
transformation journey," said Doug
Suriano, senior vice president and general manager, Oracle
Communications. "Matching Promixus' ambition to deliver innovative
