Firstly, it gathered the alarms coming from the Traffic Management System. These alarms, amongst others, indicate low Network Efficiency Ratio (NER), low Average Call Duration (ACD) and low Answer Seizure Ratio (ASR). False alarms, caused by stutters we ignored or correctly collated for more effective application and analysis.
The CORTEX solution would then gather the call records, for the faulty period, for the specific destination. These records contained all the relevant information from each call, and they were analysed to identify multiple failure scenarios ranging from mass call events to partial and whole route failures, including tight loops and specific route issues. These diagnostics were done by the CORTEX platform at machine speed resulting in a 90% decrease of time compared to the original, largely manual system.
Phase one of the implementation focused on fault identification. Once the fault was identified, the system raised a ticket, adding the relevant information, and the user would manually fix the faults through the Central Routing Engine (CRE).
In Phase two, the user would log onto CORTEX and would be able to approve the mitigation action which the system would automatically implement.
For the Final phase, the faults would be resolved without any user interaction of any kind. This would be a 100% automated solution to the problem.
By significantly reducing the time to diagnose issues, and by removing superfluous alerts, CORTEX helped this client reduce the event horizon by 90%. Importantly, CORTEX then helped the client focus impact incident response times, reducing them from ~30 mins to near machine speed response times, i.e. seconds.
Ultimately, the client achieved nirvana by having faults resolved without manual intervention. Expensive, much slower resources were able to be restored to higher value activities. The engineers appreciated being focused where they added more value, and being taken away from frustrating, chaotic event management scenarios.
Our software alone is not the reason why people buy CORTEX, we know what really matters to CSPs. Discover the difference with We Are CORTEX
Deliver business value quickly
I have a long term technology strategy but I need my automation to start delivering quickly and cannot wait for all of the legacy systems.
Hyper scalability for Communication Service Provider operations
We work in a high volume business and our automation tools need to execute at speed and scale out to handle huge volumes of transactions.
Enterprise-grade automation platform
We want to automate business critical operations and we need central controls and governance around our automation estate to avoid citizen-developers running unnecessary risks.
As a dedicated CSP business we deep dive into every area of a CSP, take a look at some of our other use cases here.
Customer billing relies on an extensive underlying infrastructure to monitor, record, maintain data and apply required contractual parameters for accurate billing.
The current IT stack used within the circuit writing process required manual data input leading to inefficiencies.
Manual network fault management on trouble tickets for network infrastructure that were raised from customer complaints, by the operations teams.
The customer wanted to maximise the quality of their international voice network services whilst minimising costs.
Voice Resource Management was a manually performed process, from order to allocation and further provision.
Minimising unexpected downtime or systems availability for customer impacting Change Requests.
