Airtel Decides on Oracle Communications Network Integrity

Oracle has recently announced that Bharti Airtel, has selected Oracle Communications Network Integrity to optimize the use of its 78,540-kilometre extensive national fiber-optic network. This is one of the first implementations of Oracle Communications Network Integrity software on such a wide scale and complexity.

“We have been using Oracle’s technology, business applications and communications- industry applications for 10 years now. The new network discovery and reconciliation product will greatly enhance Airtel’s network utilization and enable us to further improve provisioning accuracy with reduced errors — all leading to improved customer satisfaction,” said Jai Menon, director, Customer Service & IT, Bharti Airtel Limited.

Oracle Communications Network Integrity will enable Airtel to gain enterprise-wide visibility of network assets by discovering and synchronizing its actual live network with its various OSS. This automated solution will replace Airtel’s burdensome manual process for assessing and reconciling its network utilization with its network inventory information.

Airtel already leverages Oracle’s comprehensive suite of communications applications, including several components of Oracle Communications Service Fulfillment Suite, Oracle E-Business Suite, Oracle CRM, Oracle Fusion Middleware and Oracle Database.
