The network-side components of the Mobile Operator Solution are
designed to be integrated easily into any network infrastructure,
offering simple installation, configuration and management. Components
include the Venturi Optimization
Engine, the VCentral Element Manager
and other network elements designed to increase overall network
availability.
Venturi offers flexible deployment alternatives, including both edge and centralized
architectures. The Venturi Optimization Engine component is typically installed
in one or more data centers, while the element management function can be centrally
located or deployed at each data center location.
In the unlikely event of a component failure, the Venturi Optimization
Engine is designed to be able to operate in full bypass
mode, ensuring that overall network availability will
never be affected.
