Kansai Multimedia Service Company (KMS), the provider in the Kansai area of cable internet services under the “ZAQ” brand for Jupiter Telecommunications Co. Ltd. (J:COM), the largest multi-system operator (MSO) in Japan, has selected a suite of Openwave’s infrastructure and email solutions that include Openwave RichMail and Openwave Email Mx supported by Openwave professional services. The messaging solution selected by KMS includes Openwave RichMail, an AJAX-based converged communications solution that offers the end user a web-based means for accessing the mailbox wherever and whenever it’s needed, and Openwave Email Mx, an extensible, carrier-scale email solution that scales to support any number of subscribers with fast, reliable performance. Openwave’s infrastructure and email solutions eliminate the need for KMS to deal with multiple vendors and multiple modules, providing a consolidated end-to-end platform that includes a back end message store, anti-abuse solutions and web access for end users. The flexible, extensible and highly scalable IPv6 compliant platforms are expected to allow in the future the rapid deployment of customised solutions including new revenue-generating services that are capable of handling millions of subscribers and large-capacity mailbox storage. In addition, the Openwave solution provides KMS with the foundation needed to deploy disaster-recovery solutions in the future.
