[VoiceOps] SS7 Landscape

[Paul Timmins]

Reduce your reliance on it more and more. Switch to IP tandems (Inteliquent/Peerless/etc) and ip interconnect. The people who make and support SS7 equipment are in a dying market, the brain drain on it is immense as people retire, and the longer you rely on it, the worse it's gonna get.

TNS is a big dog in the space. But that's not saying much anymore.
