[VoiceOps] Acme Packet University

[Peter Rad.]

Today is the Acme Packet University and Analyst Day.

Some of the tweets had some nuggets I thought I would share:

Acme Packet Analyst Event: Now that SBC is standardized, what's 
preventing others from catching up?

Acme Packet CTO MeLampy answer: Complexity has risen; so overwhelming 
that it's a barrier to entry; APKT hired 200 ppl in the last 18 months 
to tackle it.

Acme Packet CTO: standards complexity is killing the potential for 
end-user services.  Patrick MeLampy discusses the newer complexities of 
multimedia communications.


MeLampy: increased SIP complexity: 215 different RFCs related to SIP, 35 
Internet drafts 2012 YTD, 80 Internet Drafts last 6 months


@Acme_Packet: MeLampy: all our old competitors tried to solve the sbc 
problems like a firewall, and they all failed.

MeLampy: making a simple call :136 messages , 17 entities , 6 protocols; 
Session state in 7 difference locations

MeLampy: Making a 3GPP call (SIP session layer): Phone registration: 30 
messages, 11 entities , 5 protocols.

Andy Ory: As service providers are pushing to #LTE there are three 
problems, the business challenges, tech issues, and complexity

Ory: our role in session enablement is to allow for simple 
implementations, so service providers can compete with free voice services

Dan Warren - IMS brings everything good about TDM to an IP level. <so we 
are back to talking about IMS, huh?>

Thank you.
