Oracle has announced that Oracle Communications Billing and Revenue Management - its convergent, real-time billing and revenue management application - now supports IBM’s AIX operating system.
AIX, IBM’s UNIX operating system, in combination with IBM’s PowerVM virtualisation offerings, allows consolidation of workloads on fewer servers, which can increase efficiency and conserve energy. AIX operates on IBM systems based on Power Architecture technology.
With this announcement, Oracle extends its support for AIX, which it has previously supported with other Oracle Communications applications including Oracle Communications Service Activation, Oracle Communications Unified Inventory Management and Oracle Communications Order and Service Management - all components of the Oracle Service Fulfillment Suite - as well as Oracle’s Siebel CRM.
“By supporting AIX, we give service providers increased flexibility to choose the operating system that works best for their environments, helping them implement Oracle Communications Billing and Revenue Management smoothly to more quickly realise the benefits of its unified view of customer and revenue data across any service, product, promotion, or payment method,” said David Sharpley, vice president product marketing and channels, Oracle Communications.
