Openwave Mobility today announced that SaskTel, Canada’s service communications provider, has successfully deployed the company’s Smart User Repository (SUR) on its network in order to unify and simplify management of its subscriber data.

The Saskatchewan-based operator selected the NFV-enabled SUR to manage increasing network traffic while minimizing Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of its network as SaskTel has seen increased user demand after the launch of its LTE network last year. 

According to Openwave, SUR gives operators high speed and low latency access to subscriber data consolidated into a central repository that can be accessed by any external application. SUR offers over 100,000 read, notification and 50,000 write operations per second and has been tested for up to 500 million subscribers for millisecond latency.
