Bytemobile Releases Next Generation of Unison Mobile Internet Platform, Offering Multiple Advantages for Network Operators and Consumers
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. --(Business Wire)-- Apr 28, 2009
Bytemobile, Inc., the global leader in mobile internet solutions for
wireless network operators, today announced the general availability of
its new Unison™ Mobile Internet Platform. The latest Unison release -
which includes Bytemobile’s new Media Optimization, Widget Bar and
MobileMatch™ applications – provides operators with a comprehensive and
flexible solution for sustaining profitable growth and driving continued
mobile data adoption.
“Bytemobile has won over 100 global wireless carriers and is benefiting
from the secular trend of an explosion of content growth on wireless
networks,” said Kenneth Muth, senior research analyst for Network
Technology at Robert W. Baird & Co. Incorporated. “Obviously, as
carriers deploy 4G networks with bigger pipes, more applications will
emerge and traffic patterns for carriers will only get worse.”
One Platform, Multiple Solutions
“Bytemobile’s rich product portfolio addresses the specific challenges
and opportunities facing operators today, ranging from explosive data
traffic growth and diversification to service differentiation and
personalized mobile web browsing,” said Adrian Hall, Bytemobile chief
marketing officer. “While the Unison architecture obviates the
traditional need to deploy point products from multiple vendors, its
flexible, open nature enables operators to intelligently integrate
services developed by Bytemobile and other providers.”
Deployed in the core data path of the network, the Unison platform
processes all data traffic for Bytemobile applications. These fully
interoperable applications are consolidated in a single node for ease of
new service deployment, increased operating efficiency and scalability
of capacity. Following is a summary of the Bytemobile product portfolio
on the Unison platform.
Optimization

The OSN
Web Optimization application reduces network data volumes to
increase capacity for growth in internet traffic and users, enabling
operators to manage their operating and capital costs and enhance the
user experience with significant download speedup.

The WebGate™

single service control point within the network for all data traffic,
which enables operators to deliver innovative new services such as
parental controls, fair-use policies and captive portal applications
to their customers while controlling data flow through intelligent
service selection.

The MobileMatch
Service, an optional application of the OSN, supports
the selection and delivery of the most relevant value-added services

to all off-portal pages and to influence and simplify the browsing
experience by suggesting useful and relevant content, applications and

Insertion application enables operators to serve highly
relevant advertisements to consumers, thereby opening substantial new
revenue streams while enhancing the customization and personalization
of the user’s mobile browsing experience.
