IBC 2018: WorldCast Connect upgrades monitoring and support software

WorldCast Connect, which designs and commercialises the WorldCast Manager, announces an innovative architecture leveraging the new Edge Bots to enhance the deployment of its award-winning Network Monitoring and Operation Support Software.

The WorldCast Manager is a scalable and multi-faceted NMS/OSS designed to centralise, unify, and simplify the monitoring and management of IP-enabled devices across one or multiple networks and locations. Thanks to the Edge Bots, the WorldCast Manager can now be deployed as a decentralised solution following a grid architecture.

Edge Bots are software-only agents that run from any hardware or virtual host, providing advanced local monitoring and management capabilities. Edge Bots enable local data aggregation and processing while securing and optimising the communication. The addition of Edge Bots to WorldCast Manager deployments enhances the overall robustness, resiliency, and efficiency of the solution; for large networks across multiple locations or for users operating in areas that experience connection disruptions, it also secures data transmission and prevents data loss in case of communication disconnections between sites.

All the latest advancements of the WorldCast Manager will be showcased at IBC Amsterdam, booth 8.C58, from 14-18  September.
