“Telstra’s focus on building the best possible environment for both customers and employees is fully supported by Celona’s business-centric approach to application data migration,” Charles Andrews, CEO of Celona, said, adding that the Celona Evolve software platform ensures that IT‘s business priorities will be aligned and supported during the data migration process.
Andrew Young, director OSS at Telstra, said that Telstra’s vision is a simpler IT environment that involves partnering with world class suppliers using proven off-the-shelf solutions.
“With Celona Evolve, we are utilizing a data migration platform that provides minimal impact on our business operation while migrating data to our OSS Logical Inventory solution,” Young said.
And, Celona Evolve’s Application Migration Framework, or “AMF,” has delivered flexible transformation modeling and rapid connectivity to Telstra’s Network Inventory Management platform provided by AMDOCS OSS.
The migration has been achieved using a range of “Progressive Migration” strategies enabled by the Celona Evolve platform, which reduces risk and maximizes the positive impact on the OSS/BSS operation.
Celona is a provider of Application Data Migration software specifically developed for organizations who are managing complex application migrations driven by transformation, or who are upgrading their legacy systems and applications to optimize efficiency, customer focus and costs.
Back in March, Celona Technologies was selected by Swisscom (News - Alert), Switzerland’s telecoms provider, to provide its zero-downtime application data migration platform for a major converged billing programme.
Celona will provide its solution and best in class deployment method to enable Swisscom with a low risk and cost effective migration from legacy to newly upgraded billing application infrastructure based on Oracle (News - Alert) BRM.
