First-ever Features Helps Ensure Service Level Agreement Compliance
CANNES, France, Feb. 20 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
ILOG(R) (Nasdaq: ILOG; Euronext SICOVAM: 006673), the world's leading provider
of software components, today announced ILOG JTGO(TM) 3.0 for creating user
interfaces that can empower network operators with unprecedented real-time
service level monitoring ability. This capability will help ensure quality of
service (QoS), and by extension, service level agreement (SLA) compliance. The
announcement was made today at 3GSM World Congress, Feb. 19-22, 2002 in
Cannes.
With ILOG JTGO 3.0, network operators can -- for the first time -- move
beyond simple troubleshooting of network faults towards proactive monitoring
of network availability, along with the service levels being delivered to
their enterprise customers. The new release provides seamless transparency of
an OSS system, since it allows back-end information to be automatically
connected and available to the operator. This means service providers can, in
real-time, get a comprehensive view of network status.
Network Operators Can Manage Complexity
QoS is difficult to accomplish given the heterogeneous nature of most
networks today, and with major investments occurring in 3G UMTS (Universal
Mobile Telecommunications System) systems, another layer of complexity is
added. ILOG JTGO 3.0 will allow service providers, equipment and platform
vendors to manage multi-technology, multi-vendor, multi-service networks from
a unified user interface that gives them all the information they need to
manage their networks at a glance.
Easy-to-Use, Flexible Features for Developers
Key strengths of ILOG JTGO 3.0 are its rich graphics and interactivity,
factors that have made ILOG user interface software products the de-facto
industry standard. ILOG JTGO 3.0 is the first communications user display tool
designed specifically for automated, real-time and highly realistic
representation of network and service status, with direct connections to live
managed objects. This allows for continuous service and quick problem
resolution, which are essential for reliability, IT and other service-related
infrastructures.
The comprehensive QoS monitoring ability is accomplished via a
comprehensive set of pre-built, application-specific components such as highly
interactive table, tree, network and equipment viewers that provide visual
displays of not just technical data, but of network performance, traffic
patterns and customer services. ILOG JTGO is based on open standards like XML
and JavaBeans, which reduces deployment time and associated development costs.
ILOG JTGO 3.0 also allows service providers to reduce R&D cost and time to
market of new services, thanks to ready-to-use industry-specific objects for
IP, wireless, SAN, optical networks and the regular public switched telecom
network.
Available in March, the new release also offers ready-to-use, powerful
end-user features, such as navigation, data filtering, sorting, searching and
"look-and-feel" customization. This further reduces the need for additional
coding, and allows users to customize their views for easy system navigation
and fast integration of new services.
ILOG JTGO 3.0 is the latest release of ILOG's market-leading user
interface software for operational support system (OSS) applications and is
built on a 10-year legacy of delivering visualization solutions to the
telecommunications industry. For more information on ILOG JTGO, please visit
