IMS - IP Multimedia Subsystems - A peek ahead
In the near future I'll be interviewing someone from Bridgeport Networks, so I've been doing a bit of focused reading in their material and other places about IMS. Since it isn't directly VoIP, it isn't something we've paid much attention to here. But it's certainly on the horizon and something we'll need be be attuned to.
I found a white paper from a couple of months ago online at ITPapers.com
IMS inside the Enterprise
The rigid definition of protocol combinations and procedures that IMS brings to the world of IETF protocols make it an attractive proposition, in a world where seamless interoperability between VoIP solutions from different vendors has been slow to materialize. But what will really drive enterprises towards participation in IMS is the desire to better incorporate the mobile phone into the enterprise telecommunications environment. That means participating in an IMS applications environment. Through its User-Centric Broadband Architecture and its commitment to IMS, Alcatel will ensure that those applications can be located wherever is most appropriate for that enterprise and its SPs.
