Mahindra Comviva CacheNet
Apart from the feature-set of Comviva SmartCache, the Comviva CacheNet variant addresses two main
pain-points of advanced operators: how to manage traffic across many sites and how to use this
infrastructure for best use. Mahindra Comviva CacheNet addresses this by creating a mesh of caching
systems using Multi-Location caching, allowing more content can be delivered from various locations
inside the operator Intranet. Minimizing the Internet connectivity expenses and maximizing existing
operator infrastructure.CacheNet’s multi-channel support provides multiple means by which partners
can work with CSPs, to leverage the CacheNet infrastructure for delivering their content. Further
CacheNet brings a layer of intelligence using multi-control which brings in-built policy manager which can
integratewith CSPsexternalpolicysystems.
The World is more connected now than ever before. The consumption of rich media content continues to
grow exponentially, fuelled by a proliferation of devices and a broadening array of content choices.
Additionally, the user is redefining the term mobility every day with smarter access devices. As a result,
the complexity of managing traffic has also intensified driven by heightened customer expectations for an
ever-higher quality of experience (QoE). In a competitive market where end-user satisfaction is the primary
service differentiator, operators need the right set of tools to alleviate pressure on the network and to
deliveraqualitativelysuperiorserviceanddrivequickerROIforinvestmentsmadeintodatainfrastructure.
Mahindra Comviva's high-performance caching solutions enable CSPs to deliver better quality of service to
customers, optimize network spending and monetize data growth. Unlike many solutions in the caching
solution space which work in silos, Mahindra Comviva has incorporated intelligence and policy features to
work with a network-wide view. Comviva’s caching solution is designed and packaged to evolve with
growing needs of modern CSPs and ISPs, who are moving from single, limited networks to a multi-site, de-
centralized network to cope with growing traffic demands. Hence Mahindra Comviva caching solution
consists of two incremental variants: SmartCache and CacheNet; which enables operators of all size and
types to pick what suites them best and flexibility to upgrade when required to more advance products in
theMahindraComvivaContentDeliverySuite(CDS) portfolio.

constant reconfiguration. Using Comviva’s proprietary SmartStore algorithm, Mahindra Comviva
SmartCache’s Multi-Level caching implements intelligent storage and retrieval. Which results in up to 4x
