Skyline
Communications announced
that Tata Sky, India's
leading content
distribution platform
providing Pay TV and OTT
services, has deployed
the DataMiner NMS/OSS to
manage its
Direct-to-Home (DTH)
operations. Tata Sky is
headquartered in Mumbai,
India, with the
objective of connecting
to the best content in
the world on any budget,
any screen, anytime and
anywhere. Tata Sky was
the first to launch
multiple products and
services that redefined
the subscribers’ viewing
experience in India.

Satellite
direct-to-home
distribution is the
preferred technology to
broadcast services to a
vast and geographically
distributed audience.
Not only does this
technology facilitate
fast service deployment
at an attractive price
point, more importantly,
it also offers a high
degree of service
availability. The
service quality and
availability largely
depend on the quality
and availability of the
uplink.
“Tata Sky has
invested in the
best-of-breed technology
infrastructure to ensure
maximum uptime,
reliability and
scalability. Software
applications such as
CRM, billing and ERP are
deployed in a clustered
environment, which not
only ensures high
availability, but also
enriches the experience
of our subscribers,”
said Mr. Yigit Riza,
Chief Technology Officer
at Tata Sky.
“The DataMiner
Platform at Tata Sky
offers one-screen access
of the entire operation,
including content
acquisition and
compression platforms
across different vendors
and technologies. The
unified view enables
users to easily access
and configure services.
DataMiner is also
scalable, so we can add
other equipment and
systems in the near
future, related to the
RF platform and OTT
platform,” said Pramod
Gupta, Regional Account
Manager- South Asia &
Middle East at Skyline
Communications.
”DataMiner restores
services as quickly as
possible, either through
automatic service
redundancy switching or
through
operator-initiated
switchover. Moreover,
any embedded switchover
functions in the network
infrastructure can be
integrated in DataMiner.
DataMiner automation is
highly versatile and
adapts optimally to the
operational environment.
The tailored failover
automation engines
decrease the
mean-time-to-repair to
the absolute minimum for
every failure scenario.”
The DataMiner NMS/OSS
is deployed with the
vast majority of DTH,
satellite and service
providers worldwide. The
multi-vendor platform
manages any type of
device, from any vendor,
using any protocol
without compromises. For
a customer like Tata
Sky, this means they
only need to invest in
one NMS platform,
instead of multiple
proprietary and closed
systems. End-to-end
service orchestration
and monitoring is at the
heart of the platform.
