1vote Alcatel-Lucent (Euronext Paris and NYSE: ALU), in conjunction with its local business partner Sprint sp z.o.o. has signed an agreement to provide Exatel S.A, one of the largest providers of communication services in Poland, with Alcatel-Lucent’s IMS solution.

The IMS platform will enable Exatel to reach consumers and businesses with its innovative personalized IP telephony service portfolio and enable consumers and businesses to lower operational costs.

This agreement represents another step in Exatel’s plan to expand into the mass market to significantly increase its profile in the consumer sector, while building on its strong position as a service provider in the business market by targeting small enterprises.

Alcatel-Lucent Feature Server 5000, the key element of the platform installed at Exatel, is one of the state-of-the-art IMS-based platforms. It allows delivery of voice services through various types of networks and technologies. One server supports both legacy and IP phone services for fixed network users and collaborates with SIP terminals of fixed and mobile network subscribers using dual-system phones (e.g. GSM/WiFi). Offered solution consists of all the logical and functional elements of fully standardized IMS-based network, while it is deployed in unique, compact chassis. In addition to the Feature Server 5000, Exatel will install Media Gateway Controllers and Media Gateways from Alcatel-Lucent. Media Gateway Controllers and Gateways form the core of IP network transformation and enable interworking of calls on the IP network with the legacy TDM phone network.

The solution will allow the user a wide-range of capabilities, which they can personally manage via a Web-based GUI. This platform also enables an increased penetration of the profitable Wholesale Line Rental (WLR) market and the Bitstream Access market. The investment threshold required to provide new services is reduced and the system offers high scalability, with the capacity of up to 160,000 subscribers supported by a single server.

“The selection of Alcatel-Lucent’s IMS is an element of our strategy of acquiring new customers by introducing innovative services. We decided to deploy IMS, as it is a future-proof technology with high flexibility, accelerating the introduction of new services and providing help in reducing operating costs. We have a strong relationship with Alcatel-Lucent based on many years of collaboration”, Wojciech Lubczyński, Acting President of the Management Board of Exatel S.A., said.

“Convergent networks are among the new and most prospective segments of the telecommunication market. We are pleased that Exatel has selected this solution and is working with our proven partner Sprint; to role out an end-to-end deployment”, Andrzej Dulka, Alcatel-Lucent’s senior executive in Poland, said.

Alcatel-Lucent has been providing various solutions to Exatel S.A. for many years, including DWDM/SDH backbone, data networks, Ethernet, and broadband wireless access networks.-Alcatel-Lucent

We have the most advance Linux Applications Web Server in the market today.

With full GUI for easy administration.

We can provide remote advance Linux Support in German, Polish and English.

We can build for you custom build Web Servers with most advance Linux OS.

Since 1998 RAQport offers software installations on server appliances like
the Sun Cobalt. Since several years we also deliver the same services for
CentOS + BlueQuartz server appliances. They are the open source successor of
the original Cobalt RaQs and offer a much more secure and more modern
hosting platform than the original RaQs.

In the fall of 2006 we started - together with NuOnce Networks, Inc. - the
development of Aventurin{e}, which is a Linux Virtualization Appliance.

Aventurin{e} allows you - with the same ease as on a Cobalt RaQ or
BlueQuartz server - to create and manage virtual private servers. These
virtual private servers can even run different Linux distributions. So on
one Aventurin{e} master node you can run multiple different Linux
distributions side by side. This makes it ideal for ISPs or companies with
their own IT infrastructure, as you can utilize your existing hardware in
the most efficient fashion.

This server appliance uses CentOS as operating system. As GUI interface it
uses BlueQuartz, which is based on the open sourced RaQ550 Sausalito
architecture from Sun Cobalt.
Sites, users, mailing lists and settings can directly be imported with the
built in CMU from any Cobalt RaQ. So this is an inexpensive way to trade the
aging Cobalt RaQ's against much more modern hard- and software, while
retaining the well known functionality and GUI interface.
A CentOS + BlueQuartz Server Appliance can do everything a RaQ550 and it
does it much faster. A CentOS + BlueQuartz Server Appliance can do all
including Frontpage. We do not have Chilisoft ASP at this moment ) - The
serial ATA hardisks have a throughput of approximately 50 MBit/seconds and
even the basic model with a 2.8GHz CPU outperforms a RaQ550 by several
magnitudes.
Aside from the speed there are other compelling reasons to consider
replacing existing RaQ3, RaQ4, XTR and RaQ550 with a CentOS + BlueQuartz

virtual private servers. Aventurin{e} also includes mechanisms to back up
and restore virtual private servers.
Benefits:
Aventurin{e} is ideal for webhosting companies and companies with their own
IT infrastructure.
Within a matter of minutes you can create new CentOS + BlueQuartz virtual
private servers which cater all your web, email and FTP needs.
Or you can create that CentOS, Fedora Core, Debian, Ubuntu or OpenSuSE
virtual private server that your developer needs to deploy his new
application. Aventurin{e} also helps you to deploy your own customized Linux
operating systems.
Additionally Aventurin{e} helps you to improve your ability for disaster
recovery. No longer do you have to provide individual backup mechanisms for
each of your servers. Aventurin{e} allows you to back up (and restore!) all
its virtual private servers through the GUI interface.
Migrations of virtual private servers from Aventurin{e} - or from any OpenVZ
or Virtuozzo host - to another can be done without downtime.
Redundancy:
For those that need high availability and redundancy: Aventurin{e} can do
that as well. It is also available in a clustering version which will make
sure that your important servers and services are always reachable.
