Bytemobile Delivers Massively Scalable Optimization and Traffic Management Platform.

New Stackable Solution Supports Line-Rate Services at 10 Gbps per Chassis

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. -- Bytemobile, Inc., the global leader in mobile internet solutions for wireless network operators, today announced a significant capacity and scalability increase for its Unison[TM] Mobile Internet Platform. The platform now provides Layer-7 optimization and traffic management services at an industry-first 10 gigabits per second (Gbps) line processing rate in a single 12U chassis and is NEBS Level 3-certified. The resulting throughput improvement yields a ten-fold reduction in hardware, power, cooling, and rack space requirements thereby supporting operators' deployment and delivery of mobile data services in a financially and environmentally sustainable network environment.

The new Unison capabilities are a product of Bytemobile's innovation in vertically optimizing the server hardware, operating system and platform software for intelligent layer-7 traffic processing. By tightly managing every packet throughout the system, the platform delivers maximum processing efficiency with minimal latency. This enables operators to defer capital expenditures for new infrastructure and reduce operating expenses associated with hardware expansion as traffic continues to grow.

The Unison platform's modular, blade-based design allows the addition of blades and chassis incrementally and only as needed. The platform has been architected for the next generation of wireless networks and provides operators with a cost-effective migration path from 3G to 4G and beyond.

Scalability for Future Growth

In its 2009 Visual Networking Index forecast, Cisco Systems predicted that global mobile data traffic will grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 131% for the next five years, reaching over 2 exabytes per month. This will require the deployment of significant quantities of hardware to process the traffic - with a corresponding acceleration of infrastructure capital and operational costs.

"Over the next five years, a vast numbers of subscribers will upgrade to more sophisticated mobile devices - causing them to use more applications, consume more data and generate more traffic," said Joel Brand, vice president of Product Management at Bytemobile. "This capacity breakthrough for the Unison platform will enable operators to optimize and control the continued exponential increase in network traffic with a much smaller hardware footprint - and at 10% of the current cost."

By surgically focusing on protocols, content types, web browsers, device types, user profiles, and network capabilities, the optimization techniques of the Unison platform significantly reduce the amount of traffic on the network while improving the user experience. In addition to web and media optimization, the carrier-grade platform consolidates multiple interoperable functions on a single node in the data path of the internet protocol (IP) core between the wireless network and the Internet. With the platform's flexible open architecture, operators can launch new value-added data services quickly, efficiently and economically. The modular Unison software provides both overall system management and policy management for the processing of traffic and application of services.

Bytemobile applications available for deployment on the Unison platform include intelligent gateway traffic management; web optimization; media optimization; web and multimedia content adaptation, with advertisement insertion and widget application management; and user analytics.
