OminVox3D Application Server

OmniVox3D® is a carrier-grade SIP Application Server that gives you the power to rapidly Design, Develop and Deploy revenue-generating, value-added voice and video services in IP Multi-Media, IMS and traditional TDM networks. Because of APEX's belief in Open Architecture, OmniVox3D will not suffer the fate of proprietary platforms which become obsolete as new services, media, devices and protocols are introduced.

The OmniVox3D Application Server provides a widely deployed development and carrier-grade application execution platform with the following attributes:

• A Flexible Distributed and Modular Solution
  OmniVox3D's modular design provides the flexibility to use multiple types of media servers and multiple network configurations, including IMS. A key to this is the SIP Session Manager, which acts as a Back-to-Back-User Agent (B2BUA) within the framework of the Application Server. The distributed architecture is used to provide scalability and reliability because multiple instances of OmniVox3D components may be controlled and managed as one uses the OmniView OAM&P manager.
  
  
  
  
  
• Service Execution Environment
  The OmniVox3D Application Server provides a strong and flexible execution environment. It delivers scalability and reliability to applications while providing the utmost flexibility for creating new applications. OmniVox3D is built around web technologies making it a perfect fit for high traffic services. Protocol independence provides the ability to create an application once and run it in multiple of environments. These environments include SIP based Next Generation Networks (NGN) and TDM based Advanced Intelligent Networks (AIN/IN).
  
  
• Standards Based Open Architecture
  The OmniVox3D Application Server is a truly open architecture solution built around XML and internet technologies. Running with standard off-the-shelf components, the application server uses open Media Resource Protocols including MSCML, MSML/MOML and VXML. This allows it to serve applications to many open TDM and SIP Media Servers in the market. MRCP support provides open interoperability with leading Speech Recognition and Speech Synthesis vendors. Additionally, OmniVox3D supports mobile video telephony by using the industry standard 3G-324M protocol.

• Service Creation
  OmniVox3D includes the OmniView Service Creation Environment and OAM&P Console that provides application developers the ability to:
  • Design new voice and video services
  • Develop and modify existing services
  • Deploy and test services
  • Monitor and maintain applications in production

• Scripting Applications with Python®
  OmniVox3D also supports the Python Programming Language for scripting voice and video applications, providing a standards-based interface into existing networks. This allows application developers to build on investments already made on the Web and Internet infrastructures, eliminating the typical restrictions of proprietary systems.

Investment Protection

Since 1989 APEX Voice Communications has provided Enhanced Service Creation tools for the Telecom Service Provider market. One of the key unique values of the OmniVox3D Application Server is the Service Creation and OAM&P tools that enable the Service Provider to reduce the cost of creating, maintaining and operating new services.

APEX's philosophy has always been to train its customers and make them independent. With OmniVox3D there is no dependence on a vendor's schedule to develop applications, and because OmniVox3D applications are protocol independent, applications and licenses can be easily ported across networks as standards evolve.
