Comviva Modernises Lebara Network with Multitenant Cloud Messaging Platform
Comviva announced its partnership with Lebara, a UK-based telecommunication service provider, to transform its messaging through cloud-based multitenant SMSC platform – UNO.
Lebara has deployed Comviva’s UNO platform for multiple MVNOs, in order to have a unified approach to the provisioning, control, and management of messaging offerings across multiple locations. This deployment will help Lebara in the optimization of cloud resources and the effective utilization of software licenses. This will lead to a short turnaround time to onboard enterprises. UNO platform is a multi-tenant platform that provides a single, unified network integration design across all countries, which leads to faster rollout of features and patch releases.
Comviva’s UNO platform has successfully enabled operators across the globe to drive their communication business forward by providing a unified platform for efficient and cost-effective management to a wide range of messaging-related services.
