SMGS
Overview
SMGS has been specially designed to cater for current and future business requirements of short message services. The system is compatible with gradual operator growth, can be deployed in rapid time, and gives telecom operators the ability to introduce new and advanced services to their subscriber base.
The system is accessed and maintained through an easy-to-navigate Web interface. In addition, the system is compliant with the latest 3GPP technical specifications ensuring compatibility with other SMS centers and agents.
SMGS supports the sending, receiving, storing, routing and forwarding of messages. Messages can also be scheduled to be sent at a future time.
SMGS is a SMS enterprise-class gateway interacting with multivendor SMSCs through dedicated ESME protocols including SMPP,CIMD2,UCP etc .., as well as multiple SMS/WAP push proxy gateways or SMS gateways via TCP/IP..
It is designed to support a very high performance throughput for operators and VAS providers, with advanced billing features and In Memory Database. having no limitations to connect multiple SMSCs, gateways and WAP push proxys.
Tritux has many years of experience in wireless messaging and protocol engineering providing robust, high performance and scalable messaging solutions to telecom operators and VAS providers. As such, we are truly confident that we will provide full satisfaction of our customer and keeping their infrastructures with the most up to date technologies.
Using In Memory database, SMGS can carry up to 1000 messages per second using an average hardware configuration. This performance figure can be increased with system hardware capacity.
Architecture
Operators interconnect and roaming
Using SMGS, the operator can provide incoming and outgoing message services for subscribers roaming outside of their home location. The system also supports interconnect and SMS inter-working.
