Capacity Expansion, Cost Reduction, Faster Downloads
The OSN Web Optimization application reduces the amount of traffic in both the wireless and wired segments of the network. Data reduction in the wireless segment leads to reduced investments in spectrum, base station capacity and density, and backhaul from base stations to the core network. Caching contributes to data reduction on the wired uplink and yields savings on network and service infrastructure as well as internet access costs.
In addition to lowering operators’ expenses, Web Optimization provides an improved user experience, not only on lower-speed networks where it counts the most, but also on 3G and next-generation networks where bandwidth is shared among concurrent users. The application significantly alleviates the frustration that users experience while waiting for web pages to download. Acceleration is achieved through several patented techniques that take into account the behavior and limitations of mobile browsers, operating systems, networks, and content servers. The OSN effectively serves as the “brain” connecting wired and wireless networks, while managing and optimizing both sides.
The clientless Web Optimization solution can be enhanced with optional Bytemobile Optimization Clients, which are available for the most commonly used platforms. Optimization Clients further increase both data reduction and speed-up by interacting more closely with web browsers and compressing data on both the downlink and the uplink. Because wireless networks typically allocate significantly more bandwidth to the downlink than to the uplink, the uplink often becomes the overall bottleneck for Web 2.0 applications. By optimizing the uplink in addition to the downlink, Optimization Clients provide the best possible user experience.
Bytemobile’s OSN Web Optimization combines the following powerful optimization capabilities with high scalability and availability to successfully support subscriber bases into the tens of millions:
Dynamic, Transparent Optimization
Acting transparently to both the content server and the client, OSN Web Optimization requires no special processing or configuration by the content provider or the user.
Increased Effective Network Capacity
OSN Web Optimization reduces data volumes for web, email and most other TCP/IP applications, increasing effective network capacity to service additional users and traffic.
True, Dependable Broadband Experience
OSN Web Optimization speeds up the delivery of complex web content to mobile consumers, thereby enhancing the user experience.
Carrier-Grade Solution
As part of the industry’s most reliable and scalable mobile data platform, OSN Web Optimization routinely processes internet traffic of multiple gigabits per second.
Operator Customization, User Personalization
Operators can customize the user interface and optimization levels according to their branding and business needs, while users can personalize similar options to their individual tastes.
Flexible Deployment Modes
True clientless optimization provides superior performance to all users at all times. Client-server solutions deliver enhanced performance for web applications and enable optimization for non-web applications, such as email and file transfers.
