LG Uplus, Korea's telecommunication operator, recently ended a three-month trial of its Intelligent Network Platform.
The months-long experiment involved Nokia's radio technology, along with Liquid applications and CDNetworks. The results of the trial suggest that the benefits of the platform include a 35% increase in "performance gain in content delivery." Moreover, there is a 90% reduction in operating and capital costs and a network that is both faster and more secure in terms of connecting to enterprise networks via LTE.
The features of the INP, in terms of Liquid Applications, include content cashing (which equals latency reduction and bandwidth optimization), video optimization, CND integration and an Enterprise Zone feature, which grants LTE-powered data connectivity across all enterprise grounds.
