Cost effective LTE Network Scalability Maintained with Traffix Diameter Load Balancer
Achieve network scalability with effective utilization
The spiraling increased demand for bandwidth points to the growing importance of the Diameter control plane with a Diameter Load Balancer in every telecom provider's strategy. Scalability is no longer an issue, it's a given.
However, operators must be careful to scale up their network in the most cost effective approach as possible. The key way to accomplish this is to scale the Diameter control plane with a Diameter Load Balancer, as opposed to scaling the data transport layer. The scalability issues with the Diameter control plane are derived both from the increase in data traffic as well as from the increase of signaling from new services, policy and new charging models, and the fragmentation of the control plane into a growing number of various network functionalities.
The migration to advanced data and service-centric networks such as LTE and IMS introduces challenges in scalability and control. Many of them lie in the Diameter control plane. To enable cost effective network scalability, service introduction and effective data traffic management, operators need to take into account the Diameter control plane with a Diameter Load Balancer as an essential part of its network architecture strategy.
