Businesses that ignore advancements in technology will struggle as they work harder and faster in an attempt to reach performance levels that are outside old technologies? capabilities. In time, these antiquated technologies become an impediment; and worse, these businesses find themselves at a competitive disadvantage to those businesses that routinely progress with technology.
Furthermore, network traffic has its own unique patterns of highs and lows that require network planning based on peak demand across all traffic types?voice, data and video. Sub-optimal preparation and traffic management contribute to unused or dormant capacity. While performance quality is suitable, the enterprise will be overspending.
To address this issue, network convergence combines all traffic types onto a single network to improve bandwidth utilization that, in turn, contributes to optimized network expenditures. A lynchpin to effective network convergence is dynamic bandwidth allocation; this allows multiple traffic types to coexist while governing total bandwidth consumption and also maintaining performance standards for each traffic type.
Potential cost savings with convergence does not end with optimized bandwidth utilization. Other direct cost savings materialize with service companions to a multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) network, such as session initiation protocol (SIP) Trunking and mobile integration.
?A driving force of convergence is simplification, ? said Stratecast Vice President of Research Michael Suby. ?Through simplification, obsolete and expensive technologies are retired, moving your business forward without risking the bottom line. Convergence represents a compelling value proposition.?
Information should not be stagnant for any business; it must flow fluidly among those that can act on it to drive the business forward.
?Convergence helps businesses stay ahead of the game, ? said Suby. ?Few, if any, businesses can thrive with older technologies, and depending on your market situation, you could leapfrog your competitors.?
These two white papers analyze the value of technology convergence adoption, providing the level of information and velocity needed to keep businesses driving forward. Stratecast | Frost Sullivan identified Sprint as an innovative service provider of wireless, wireline and converged solutions for enterprise and midsized business and public sector customers. Sprint is uniquely positioned to manage a converged, cloud, and mobile infrastructure, unleashing the full potential of business critical applications to increase the productivity of today?s enterprise employees. ?Sprint has taken a compelling approach to convergence, ? said Suby. ?They have taken the complex concept of holistic convergence (network, access and applications) and made it simple and beneficial for all constituents, including end users, network administrators-even the CFO.?
In addition to Sprint?s convergence offerings, the company also differentiates its MPLS offering in the market with a global, end-to-end IP network, single class of service pricing, and aggressive service level agreements, and is committed to excellence in solution design, installation, support and care through a single account team.
