Russian telecom solutions provider PROTEI will be using Qosmos’ (News - Alert) ixEngine Network Intelligence technology to incorporate Layer 7 DPI capabilities into its PROTEI DPI platform. PROTEI will be able to deliver fixed and mobile telecom solutions to market rapidly and cost effectively.

PROTEI’s packet processing solution PROTEI DPI is a traffic management platform with deep packet inspection features that can manage network resources and deliver optimum services like dynamic policy enforcement, traffic charging and value-added traffic manipulation. 

Vladimir Freinkman, VP Marketing and Business Development at PROTEI said, “We realized that developing and maintaining application-level traffic parsing capability internally necessitated a considerable investment in internal R&D resources, which have detracted from our focus on our core business.”

“More importantly, the complexity of the connections and the speed of change within the network infrastructure itself required us to seek out a specialist vendor. By using proven Qosmos ixEngine (News - Alert) software, our development teams can stay focused on bringing new solutions to market much faster,” added Freinkman.

Qosmos ixEngine is a software engine for Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) that provides L7 application intelligence in telecoms, cloud and SDN architectures. It can detect traffic on networks in real time, identifying it via protocols and types of application, besides gleaning more information in the form of metadata.

The Qosmos technology is integrated into PROTEI’s platform for injecting optimized metadata and protocol recognition into its solutions. The modularity of Qosmos ixEngine allows PROTEI to customize solutions to match requirements of telecom operators.

“Understanding the complexity of network traffic and how to best leverage it in your solutions can be a daunting task for many solution providers. We are proud to have delivered such business-defining benefits to PROTEI, to reinforce their position against the competition, and to contribute to their continued delivery of best in class technology to customers,” said Thibaut Bechetoille (News - Alert), CEO of Qosmos.

Qosmos announced that its DeepFlow line of DPI probes has received HP ArcSight (News - Alert) Common Event Format (CEF) Certification.
