It is to be underlined that a true multi-tenant Telco platform designed to manage, optimize and control application performance for a large customer base:
- is NOT 'just' a multi-instance of individual central management software
- is NOT 'just' a centralized remote access to a collection(s) of device(s)

For really efficient operations, ensuring customers satisfaction and enabling Telco profitability, such a platform has to be highly automated and present a unified interface to the Telco's OSS/BSS environment.

This is what the alliance of SALSA and Autonomic Networking provides to innovative Telcos, allowing them to propose WAN Governance services to their enterprise customers.

I would like to underline that a global multi-tenant management platform to enable Telco provide visibility, control, optimization and acceleration to their enterprise portfolio:
- is NOT 'just' a collection of single instance management software
- is NOT 'just' a centralized remote access to a collection of appliances

To enable Telco to guarantee customer satisfaction and get good service profitability, such a platform must be highly automated and offer a global interface that can be easily interconnected with Telco OSS/BSS infrastructure.

The alliance of SALSA scalable architecture with Autonomic Networking provides this unique combination.
