Ecrio announces “Nimbus” – cloud based solution for VoLTE & RCS
First Virtualized User Agent for LTE Enabled M2M & WebRTC Endpoints
Cupertino, California, February 19, 2014 – Ecrio announced today that it will be demonstrating at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona its innovative cloud based solution that connects tablets and M2M endpoints requiring voice and video services over LTE networks being deployed globally.
The Nimbus solution is a cloud based version of Ecrio’s patented and proven FlexIMS™ Architecture that has already been deployed in millions of devices. It provides in the cloud all the necessary features and functions of embedded software User Agents (UA) and connects to the Operators’ existing LTE networks as a virtualized UA that can be spawned rapidly and efficiently. The Nimbus solution works with standard WebRTC end points to allow them to interoperate with GSMA compliant IR.92 VoLTE, IR.94 Video and RCS in LTE enabled phones. Additionally, Ecrio offers a Thin Client with RCS capabilities to enhance the features and functionality.
In M2M applications that require voice, video and messaging, Nimbus provides a VoLTE & RCS service layer that simplifies and reduces cost of connecting various end points to the Operator networks.
“Nimbus is a very important innovation in the mobile eco-system,” said Mr. Michel Gannage, Founder & CEO of Ecrio. “Using Nimbus, a variety of devices can now be connected seamlessly to Operators’ VoLTE & RCS services without the complexity of embedded clients. One very important use case for Operators worldwide is that of bringing tablet based voice, video and messaging traffic to their networks as standards compliant VoLTE and RCS.”
