Conforming to published standards, Converse collects information from and interacts with network elements or
data sources in real time. Its distributed capability lends itself to data collection at switch points.
Converse includes:
Acting as a real time data filter and created to execute defined business rules, Converse reviews and validates
each item of data and extracts the required details from the input format according to user specified preferences.
Users can define both the conditional reasoning that extracted data must pass through and subsequent actions
in plain language.
Converse is designed for the following applications:
- Telecommunications
- ATM networking
- Internet
- Intelligent metering
Telecommunications
Converse is used for:
- Validate and route voice calls
- Facilitate least cost routing/number portability
- Support real time credit checks
- Fraud detection
- etc.
Operators can create real time usage reports on volume,
quality, revenue and demographics etc.
Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), incorporate
TCPIP protocols, FTAM over X.25 and TCP (RFC1006), FTP.
Connected to switches or PBXs, Converse collects
information at pre-defined time slots and in real time if
the switch supplies appropriate SS7 information. Data can
be analysed according to customers’ needs and rules.
Converse supported switches include:
- Avaya
- Ericsson
- Lucent
- Siemens
- Telesoft
- Telsis
ATM networking
Network usage can be billed in real time and customer profile reports generated by volume, revenue and
demographics. Operators can also balance loads and measure fault tolerance.
Internet
Connected to an internet router, Converse acts as a server allowing users to analyse quality, fault tolerance
and screen data in real time. It provides real time usage reports on volume, quality, profile and demographics.
Intelligent metering
Any data stream which can be measured can be rated in real time, batch or any pre-specified mode. The system
facilitates credit checking, fraud detection and usage profiling as well as creating real time usage reports by
volume, quality, revenue and demographics.
