Asia’s leading IP solutions provider BNS has unveiled its new Nautilus Middleware platform designed to power IP based video services such as IPTV, Internet TV and MDU IPTV.

Highly flexible and field proven, Nautilus Middleware is cost effective and quick to deploy and includes all major backend modules such as billing, content management / scheduling, and subscriber management.

Built on a decision tree based architecture, Nautilus facilitates price and service plan flexibility and high performance real time rating and billing for virtually any IP based service. This enables operators to dramatically shorten the product development cycle and time to market for new service plans.

Based entirely on open standards, Nautilus is a future-proof IPTV platform that works with all IP-STBs, headend equipment and BSS/OSS platforms. It also allows service providers to effectively internalise ongoing IP application developments and support.

In-house developed by BNS’s engineering team, Nautilus can be scaled from full carrier grade IPTV solutions, to Internet TV and to all-in-one MDU-IPTV solutions that offer the lowest total cost of ownership.

Nautilus is a cross platform IP Video middleware solution that can be part of BNS’s end-to-end IP-based technology solutions or integrated into an existing service platform.

The new Nautilus Middleware solution powers BNS’s recently launched portfolio of IP solutions which will be on show at booth #6C4-01 in Hall 6 at CommunicAsia 2007 which will be held from 19 – 22 June at Singapore Expo.
