3. Benefits
Increased Service Penetration through capturing and delivering of all MMS messages even in cases where the MMS
settings of the subscribers’ handsets are not correct.
Performance and Scalability is provided through a distributed architecture that supports linear growth without
compromising mission critical service and capacity availability.
Proven Interoperability with third party networks, devices and service components such as VAS applications, WAP
gateways, other MMSC and SMSC applications is ensured through the support of open interfaces.
Revenue-generating Applications from Day One, like the Multimedia Album, are offered together with an open
interface to minimize integration effort with content and other applications.
Integrated Content and Service Delivery combined with multimedia and location-based services gives wireless
operators and third party developers a vast new freedom to rapidly create and deploy new data services.
4. Product Overview
Built on years of experience in architecting high-performance, carrier-grade computer-centric signaling and
messaging platforms, CanVAS MMSC is designed with unlimited performance and scalability in mind.
On-demand scalability as the business grows is achieved by simply adding new servers. In addition, features such
as built-in direct SMS notification and direct HTTP connection with the handset improve performance by bypassing
the WAP infrastructure and eliminating its performance bottleneck.
