Deutsche Telekom migrates to Skylines DataMiner

Deutsche Telekom is using Skyline’s DataMiner network management platform for the end-to-end management of its Entertain TV headends in Usingen and Ismaning.

According to Skyline, DataMiner deployment fits Telekom’s strategy of moving away from its previous-generation legacy management platforms, towards an open-architecture, end-to-end multi-vendor network management platform.

Moving Images Technologies at Products & Innovations is responsible for the DataMiner integration.

The Entertain TV platform feeds services to over two million TV subscribers.

“DataMiner enables operators such as Deutsche Telekom to quite fundamentally redefine how they manage their ecosystems, which are typically very heterogeneous, complex and always evolving. The consolidation of multiple legacy network management systems brings along considerable benefits such as a reduction of operational cost and – even more important these days – an increased overall quality of service,” said Glenn D’Haene, business development manager at Skyline Communications.

“But DataMiner goes even way beyond that, and it offers our customers significantly more added value than any other solution because of its unique pronounced open architecture, which enables operators to instantly respond to evolving requirements and to create highly integrated solutions.”
