BaseN Performance Monitoring helps Deutsche Telekom`s Central European unit to ensure outstanding service quality, high customer satisfaction and fast embracement of new services such as Virtual Hosting Environment

Deutsche Telekom`s Central European operations, with the acquired GTS Central Europe, rely on BaseN`s Performance Monitoring for its Virtual Hosting Service, IP VPN and Ethernet lines. The BaseN Platform is integrated with the GTS automated provisioning and billing system as well as the CRM applications.

BaseN built for GTS a scalable and resilient platform serving 5 European countries providing GTS a unique unified foundation for Performance Monitoring of existing and newly developed data services, proactive monitoring for customer outages in customer care and company internal status monitoring of non-telco devices.

The Performance Monitoring service enables all GTS customers to review performance parameters of their services including its most up-to-date online status. This can also become the source of proactive service management internally in GTS`s NOC (Network Operating Center), or a performance tracking based on the contract level when various alarm messages or warnings can be received by the customer. For the wholesale environment, depending on the service type, data are used as a base for claiming SLA (Service Level Agreement) credits or for price service calculations.

The access is available via a secure End User Portal for end users and an Administrative Portal for NOC, both working securely on the same precise and fresh data flow. Both portals are an online web service available through an internet browser.

BaseN Platform also offered a single and united platform for several technologies coming from company growth and acquisitions. The same way it allowed to unite diverse technologies of new services by multiple vendors.

BaseN also proved to be a key asset in making the GTS Virtual Hosting exactly the high-level service they wanted to offer to their end customers.

In the last service implementation of the VMWare-based Virtual Hosting product it provides all customers online statistics of VMWare cloud resources usage plus other GTS own service elements such as GTS Hosting Center Network Interfaces. Also here in the Virtual Hosting product, BaseN allowed for quick adjusting to heterogeneous reading while giving GTS customers flexible and unified outputs. All that without compromising reliability or scalability.

High level of auto-discovery

BaseN's system is minimizing support efforts and manual configuration tasks by a high level of auto-discovery developed by GTS's own engineers. This helps GTS to reduce the input to only providing the customer IDs and basic service definition to BaseN.

Based on GTS's CRM data feeds, BaseN is automatically building the inventory from technology changes regularly to discover all necessary technical parameters for implemented service monitoring that does not need to be entered into GTS CRM system. This helps save time and prevents from possible inconsistencies and monitoring failures in times of fast infrastructure changes and the company's continuous growth and innovation - a permanent trend that current successful telecommunication industry players are continuously dealing with.

Summary

The BaseN solution was selected in several consecutive steps and rounds of tenders from a group of top available solutions in the market. It was chosen because it is price effective, scalable, reliable and flexible. It also became easily integrated into the existing Netcool environment for core network resources umbrella management.

After using the BaseN Platform already several years for performance monitoring of IP VPN (Cisco, Juniper, Ciena, OneAccess and more) and Ethernet lines (Ciena, Alcatel Lucent and more), GTS expanded to use it also for its Virtual Hosting Environment (VHE on VMware).

GTS, thanks to BaseN, offers today accurate and timely performance feedback to GTS customers which helps them to build solid customer trust. GTS end customers who use several GTS services also profit from using the same portal provided by BaseN for all their monitoring needs.

Create mass-customized products with BaseN

BaseN spime architecture enables a whole new improved and lasting relationship between the product manufacturer and the customer. Spime means that the physical part, the actual product, becomes secondary and the real thing is its virtual representation. It comes into existence before anything is manufactured. It starts collecting information right away, for example of all the different components that are needed to create the physical product.

Once the object is manufactured, spime continues recording its entire lifecycle. By that, manufacturers learn not only more about their product after it left the production line but also about the product users. That in turn allows them to keep improving their products and to develop new services for their customers. The customer relationship will become eternal, so to speak.

WHY WE'RE IDEALLY SUITED FOR SMART MANUFACTURING AND INDUSTRY 4.0

BaseN Platform is scalable, fault tolerant and quickly implemented

BaseN is the Spime Farm capable of hosting millions of spimes

BaseN Platform: Bridging the divide between healthcare and telecommunications

CARE AT HOME

BaseN Platform in the eHealth value chain enables remote monitoring of patient health measures, such as blood pressure, heart rate, glucose levels, body temperature, weight, as well as sleep and activity data coming from wearable technology devices. Real time and historical trend data reporting allows to correlate activity and medication to the development of the condition.

WORKFORCE MANAGEMENT

Threshold-based alerts being provided to multiple eHealth stakeholders, such as doctors, nurses, insurance companies, emergency care teams, etc., enables secure monitoring of patients at their homes with fast dispatching of help, sending a nurse or ambulance, in case of worrisome alerts.

PRESCRIPTION MANAGEMENT

Doctors have more accurate and up to date patient health data at hand, which allows for adjusting the dosage of medication more precisely.

DIGITAL HEALTH SERVICES

Patients store all their measurement data in their personal health cloud and can share their personal health portal (or restricted views of it) with doctors, nurses, insurance companies, family members, etc.

WHY WE'RE IDEALLY SUITED FOR EHEALTH SOLUTIONS

Unprecedented scalability: Processing data from millions or even 10s of millions of devices and objects in real-time, something our fully distributed architecture handles with ease.

Fault tolerance, security, and no down-times: Because of our fully resilient and secure architecture we can guarantie that data is never lost, missed, or miss-used.

An extensible platform: Starting off in network fault and performance managment, we quickly added monitoring of meters, sensors, RFIDs, and we keep adding support for new devices and objects weekly.

BaseN measurement technology in the Carbon Neutral Municipalities (HINKU) Project

BaseN is providing a system for real time energy monitoring within the HINKU (Carbon neutral municipalities) project in Uusikaupunki, a municipality in Western Finland. The HINKU project, which began in 2009 and is carried out by altogether five Finnish municipalities, aims at effectively reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The overall objective of the participating municipalities is to cut greenhouse gases faster and by a higher percentage than required by the European Union. Within the group of participating municipalities Uusikaupunki pursues the most ambitious goal to cut the emissions by 80 percent from 2007 by the end of 2030.

In order to achieve this objective, measuring and monitoring both emissions and power consumption is an important key element of the project.

The HINKU project is funded by the Finnish Funding Agency for Technology and Innovation (Tekes), enterprises and the Finnish Environment Institute (SYKE).

The main challenge is to handle the collected amount of data and display it in a logical way for the involved parties that are either businesses or residents and, by that, to achieve true savings in order to reach the goals of the entire project.

The following are the different points of measurement from where data has to be collected and reported at a total of four different sites within Uusikaupunki.

1. Electricity metering

2. Hot and cold water metering

3. District heating measurement

50 000 Euros in Energy Saving for Uusikaupinki-based Fish Processing Company Kalaset

One positive example in Uusikaupunki is the fish processing company Kalaset, where energy savings are significant. Kalaset has saved one person's salary of about 50 000 euros with other related expenses per one year. With the help of BaseN real time monitoring Kalaset has been able to optimize their operations and introduce new better practices in the production halls. BaseN measures the total electricity consumption and the electricity consumption of three individual freezers (Freezing tunnels 2 x (-24 C) and cold storage).

There are currently three other sides from where BaseN is collecting measurements: Merilintu business premises, As. Oy Santtionranta residential row house complex and the local fire department.

From the Merilintu business premises the whole electricity is measured with two installations, one in the post office and another one in the cafeteria?s kitchen. Additionally, data is collected from the heating meter of the whole Merilintu building.

At As. Oy Santtionranta electricity consumption is measured in five normal households. In addition, BaseN measures hot and cold water from Vesiverto meters. BaseN gets this data directly from Vesiverto by interfacing with their own reading system. Vesiverto sends an email with the data once per day and BaseN reads it via a webpage. In the near future, this will be changed to be normally read via an agent.

From the local fire department total electricity consumption and heating power are monitored, each from the existing meter that was already in the building.

BaseN Platform: Bringing Smart Energy to the Utilities

BaseN Service enables managing energy efficiency of a variety of applications and services. BaseN Platform gathers measurement data from smart meters, renewable energy sources, inverters, transformers, and any other energy device that collects or sends data, and displays the collected data in an easily understandable, concise and relevant way - real-time and historical, enabling customers to access measurements down to specific devices.

ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE

BaseN Platform enables energy management of such infrastructure elements, as electrical power networks, solar and wind power generators, EV charging stations or any other components of the utilities? energy infrastructure.

ICT and IP NETWORKS

BaseN provides an advanced supervisory system for energy efficiency management of telecom and enterprise IP networks, ICT environments and all associated network equipment and server infrastructure end-to-end.

WHY WE'RE IDEALLY SUITED FOR THE SMART ENERGY SOLUTIONS
