Rockefeller Group Technology Solutions Introduces High-Performance Ethernet Services With End-to-End Performance Monitoring

Posted on: Thursday, 12 June 2008, 09:00 CDT

Rockefeller Group Technology Solutions, Inc. (RGTS) announced today the availability of high-performance Ethernet services for the greater New York area. The new service supports critical, real-time communications and transactional services and is backed by Accedian Networks' ESAP(TM) Service Assurance Platform. RGTS' capability to continuously monitor Ethernet performance provides the best possible Quality of Service (QoS) to clients whose success depends on highly resilient network connectivity.

"RGTS is excited to now offer leading-performance/carrier-grade Ethernet services backed by dedicated customer service and responsive operations capabilities - a unique combination that helps clients benefit from managed connectivity that enable advanced communications applications and increased business efficiency," said John Tarduno, President and CEO of RGTS. "The transition from SONET to Ethernet will save clients money on both equipment and man power as it is easier to use. The speed is ideal for data applications and RGTS is proud to be offering it."

The Ethernet service is made possible by Accedian Networks' ESAP solution, which allows RGTS to proactively monitor end-to-end, per-application performance. This ensures that committed bandwidth, availability, packet delay and jitter meet each customer's unique requirements. The solution also provides accelerated service provisioning, remote troubleshooting and carrier-grade operations, administration and maintenance functionality to ensure services are efficiently deployed and managed.

"Best-in-Class companies identified by recent Aberdeen research are more than twice as likely as others to manage deployed service performance proactively, and 1.5 times as likely to monitor QoS metrics. Such efforts help to assure SLA compliance, and improve overall performance of critical applications," said Michael Dortch, senior analyst at Aberdeen Group and author of the recent study, "Performance in a Service-Oriented Architecture World."

Performance monitoring is increasingly critical to the effective monitoring, management, and optimization of IT and communications resources. By leveraging Accedian Networks' ESAP solution, RGTS will be well-positioned to deliver services that meet or exceed their clients' QoS requirements."
