Contarra announces availabilityof CAMELEON XR 1.2The Contarra ServiceDelivery Platform Contarra introduces the Cameleon XR 1.2 Service DeliveryPlatform. The Cameleon XR product provides unmatched flexibility andpower to Service Providers to create high quality services, deployingseamless new services, with a solid and comprehensive set of OAM(Operation Administration and Management) tools. Cameleon XR combinesthe power of its graphical Application designer and Runtime environmentwith strong integration of SS7 signaling, Video 3G and Video Over IPtechnology from market leaders, in order to provide a uniqueenvironment for designing Audio and Video enabled services. Cameleon XRis the logical evolution of the Cameleon CCP 2004 and 2007 products,but with a dramatic change in the architecture of the runtime platform.The Cameleon Service Delivery Platform is a multi-layered distributedplatform where components from various layers can reside on differentmachine servers:Application (services) defining the call flow logic
Demo License available for evaluation Highlights on Key Features of Cameleon XR1.2
Backward CompatibilityThis version 1.2 isbackwardcompatible with applications developed with previous versions ofCameleon XR 1.1.Applications developed under previous versions need to be recompiledwith 1.2 torun properly. Demolicense available for evaluationThe Cameleon XR packagecomes with a demo license limited to 2 hours of continuous run-time andwith the following features enabled: Thefree Graphical Application Designerintegrating the popularCTTalk language that gives even more possibilities on top of thegraphical components to build professional Telecom services/applications Thefree OAM GUIallowing Remote fullcontrol for administration monitoring and maintenance over one ormultiple platforms 3 simultaneousstandard applicationsApplications can beeither written with the Application designer or the application C/C++SDK 1 VoiceXML EngineA powerful VoiceXML 2.1compliant, one instance of the engine running at a time in demo license 3 simultaneouscallsApplications canprocess a maximum of 3 simultaneous calls on the entire platform 3 simultaneous MCUUp to 3 MCUs canbe started (example: one board vendor, one TTS, one ASR), among theMCUs supported by the platform for the different technology vendors(for a list of MCUs for supported vendors, refer to Cameleon XRstandard documentation) Conferencing,ASR, TTSExtendedConferencing, Speech Recognition and Text to Speech enabled, next tobasic media processing functionality such as play, record, DTMF Inter-ChassisCall Bridging, Voice over IPNon-blocking switchingallowed with inter-chassis switching capability and Voice Over IP, aswell as basic Inbound and Outbound calls, Call Bridging DistributedarchitectureThis featureallows for different components to be spread on multiple servers(example: applications on one server, MCS and MCUs on different server,Remote Administration from another desktop) SS7, ISDN networksupportFor Carrier Grade withSS7 and SS7 redundancy platform networks. This allows evaluation, ProofOf Concept and test of the platform with the demo license beforecommitting to a large investment MCS redundancyAllows for reliable andfault resilient architecture. This feature demonstrate the ability forthe CCP main server to recover from failure in a dual redundantconfiguration Highlights on Key features of Cameleon XR 1.2NewVoice Browser with support for VXML 2.1 and CCXML 1.0Anew Voice Browser module supports VXML 2.1 and introduces support forCCXML 1.0.This is a complete new runtime engine that runs VXML and CCXMLapplications. Supportof WINE to run Big Browser in Linux environmentBigBrowser has been enhanced to support running under WINE environment onLinux. Support of WINE torunApplication Designer in Linux environmentGraphicalApplication Designer has been enhanced to support running underWINEenvironment on Linux. Support ofContinuous SpeechProcessing in Dialogic MCUAnenhancement in Dialogic GC MCU allows for support of CSP feature withDialogicboards. NMS SS7identification of 3GVideo CallsImprovementsin NMS SS7 MCU to detect Video 3G calls as such and to allow processingthemaccordingly. Support of CallTransfer inSIP MCUContarra SIP MCU now supports CallTransfer. IFlyTek TTS MCU supportfor SDKversion 1.2IFlyTek TTS MCU has beenupdated to support latest 1.2 SDK version. Non intrusiveconferencing onDialogic boardsThis new featureallows setting up a conference in listen mode while two calls arebridgedtogether. This is very useful for call supervision and/or conversationrecording. NewTelisma ASR MCUsupport for version 2.0Telisma ASR MCU has been updated tosupportlatest version 2.0 of Telisma engine. A new ODBC DBMS moduleThe newDBMS is based on GSODBC and is much more stable and powerful than thepreviousone. Nuance Recognizer MCUsupport forversion 9Nuance ASR MCU has beenupdated to support latest Nuance Recognizer engine version 9. MCU Synway support forSS7-ISUP Synway MCU has been enhanced to supportSS7-ISUPsignaling Aculab MCU support forProsody SAculabMCU has been enhanced to support Prosody S (Host media processing).
