ESKADENIA Software, Amman, Jordan, September, 2007
The Content Delivery System will assist Umniah and the content providers in the organisation, control, and publication of large amounts of different types of content including text, ring tones, and videos. The system features will be provided through a user friendly and bilingual web interface covering Operation, Administration and Maintenance (OAM); Content Management; Provisioning; Content Broadcasting; and Charging.
System administrators and VAS employees at Umniah will be able to use the OAM tool to manage the system through different access rights and log-in information. The tool will also support the management of promotions, channels, workflow definition, alerts, configurations, reports and statistics.
The Content Management system provides content repository, flexible search and management of content, content publishing, and content editing version control and workflow. In addition, the Content Broadcasting Engine within the system is in charge of sending and receiving SMS and MMS content, charging, sending alerts, load-balancing and prioritising, as well as channels broadcasting.
The system also provides various interfaces for channel subscription management and content requests including, customer care management web-access, self care web access, SMS commands, and IVR voice menus. This will provide Umniah’s subscribers with different alternatives to request services from the system.
High security will be maintained throughout the system using critical data encryption for the database, secure login features, and controlled access rights and privileges.
“Umniah is pleased with this partnership with ESKADENIA Software. This project shall result in the benefit of Umniah’s subscribers by facilitating the accessibility to a wide bouquet of infotainment and content services instead of the ordinary methods”, said Abdel Khaliq Anabtawi, Data Services Supervisor at Umniah Mobile Company.
