Differentiating You From Your Competition
Stratford Managers analyzes different options for supporting new applications or offering innovative enhancements to service models using the existing infrastructure. Following the development of standards allows identification of trends and threats to your current and future plans.
Our ability to propose contributions to the standards groups will demonstrate your technical leadership in the market place.
Delivering Predictable Service Performance
Stratford Managers analyzes the existing network infrastructure from a traffic management point of view to recommend alternative configurations that can improve the predictability of service performance.
We develop analytical models or build discrete event simulation models (using tools such as OPNET modeler) to analyze existing implementations and compare the performance to potential alternatives.
The ultimate goal is to simplify operations while meeting customer expectations.
Make the Best Vendor Decisions
Bandwidth needs increase in an often unpredictable manner. The configuration of traffic management features of the products already deployed in the network can have a big impact on the engineering rules, the performance, the overall capacity and utilization of resources.
Stratford Managers strengthens your Requests For Proposal by adding detailed questions on the implementation of traffic management features. We review vendor responses and provide a qualitative and quantitative comparison study to help with the selection process.
Responding to Regulatory Challenges
Several regulating agencies are scrutinizing the use of traffic management techniques on the Internet. However, these techniques are necessary to deliver predictable service performance. Stratford Managers researches and investigates novel traffic management techniques or the innovative use of existing features that provide the required isolation while meeting the evolving regulations.
