Two of the world's largest US telecommunications companies were scaling infrastructure and networks continuously, but their legacy, licensed Network Performance Management software couldn't keep pace with modern, IoT-enabled device data at scale. Softility replaced it with a modern, open-source NPM framework, delivered in just a few weeks, consolidating time-series data across diverse devices and vendors into one secure, scalable platform, saving millions in licensing, infrastructure, and personnel costs.
Challenge
-
Legacy licensed NPM software couldn't scale to handle granular, near-real-time data from modern IoT-enabled network devices, driving massive computing and personnel costs.
-
Standard, out-of-the-box vendor software gave operations and business teams no device-level visibility or customization for dashboards, alerts, and reports.
-
Traditional NPM data architecture lacked the scalability, resilience, and flexibility needed to keep pace with modern network automation.
Solution
Softility conducted thorough analysis and benchmarking of open-source and commercial tools, designed the architecture, and delivered a modern NPM framework built on open-source technologies eliminating expensive licensing and infrastructure costs. The framework spans ingestion, inventory management, transformation, data platform, grouping, visualization, email reporting, and monitoring layers, with pre-built accelerators including Kafka adapters, a rules engine, dashboards, and KPI calculators for fast delivery.
Benefits:
-
Millions in cost savings by replacing expensive licensed tools with a scalable, open- source alternative.
-
Real-time insights and self-service visualization, letting users define custom alerts and metrics without code.
-
Independently scalable layers on a centralized platform, with predictive KPI analysis and hybrid on-prem/multi-cloud deployment flexibility.
