[Update 24 - Aptilo New PCRF for LTE] PCRF - DPI Compatibility Matrix

 
Yet another PCRF product!

Aptilo Networks announced that "the company is adding LTE ["early 2011"to its portfolio of service management and policy control solutions for operators".

See "Aptilo to Add LTE Policy and Charging Control to Portfolio of Solutions" - here.

"Aptilo’s new 4G service management platform with LTE support has a purpose-built PCRF (policy charging and rules function) that, unlike traditional solutions, is pre-integrated with optional Aptilo modules for the necessary subsystems that are usually purchased separately such as prepaid systems, subscriber database, WEB portals, statistics and reporting, voucher management and more."

Aptilo CEO Torbjorn Ward said:  “Aptilo’s holistic approach to service management with tight integration between policy and charging functions has been very successful with our WiMAX customers – from  greenfield deployments using our pre-integrated solution to large operators that require solutions that will seamlessly integrate with existing systems. We now see the same type of requirements also for LTE, and are very pleased to be able to offer this innovative and flexible solution regardless of access technology.

The Aptilo Access Controller has a QoS function, although DPI (i.e. accurate identification of applications) is not mentioned:

"Together with the Service Profiles defined in the Aptilo Service Management Platform (SMP) the AC constitutes a powerful tool for handling differentiated service bundles with prioritization of traffic on the user level. The automatic bandwidth balancer feature of the Aptilo AC distributes available bandwidth between all active sessions according to the priorities set in the service profiles. A service can be automatically throttled down to a certain capacity if the pre-paid quota has been depleted to a specified level."
