ZTE, Banglalink launch biggest vSDM platform

ZTE Corporation with mobile phone operator Banglalink has introduced virtual Subscriber Data Management (vSDM) platform in Bangladesh through the successful migration of 60 million users.

The vSDM platform possesses the largest capacity in the world, which will help the VEON, parent company of Banglalink, to achieve more efficient user data management and enhanced service availability, said a press release on Wednesday.

The vSDM platform uses advanced virtualization technology to achieve hardware and software decoupling, and uses generic commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware to achieve flexible and elastic on-demand deployment, saving investment and operation and maintenance (O&M) costs, meeting continuous network evolution and service needs such as 5G and Internet of things (IoT).

It uses a large-capacity multi-NE integration database solution to meet the requirements of multi-network integration and large capacity.

The virtualization technology will bring faster speeds and help users realize digital transformation as a result 60 million Banglalink users will benefit from the virtualization of the network.

Banglalink CEO Erik Aas said, “The implementation of the world`s largest vSDM is a landmark for both the companies and Banglalink will always support to introduce new technology to become the best digital service provider in Bangladesh.”

ZTE Bangladesh CEO Vincent Liu said: “As the strategic partner of VEON, we will continue to be committed to providing the best services and solutions for VEON, to help VEON achieve continued business success.”
