Benefits Rich media application deployment – Single application for developing, deploying, and managing all conferencing and collaboration services, including Audio Reservationless, Audio Attended, Video, Management, third party integrations, and more

On demand collaboration between individuals, teams, and organizations is fast becoming an integral part of daily processes and workflows.

IMS-based scalability – Next-generation core network architecture provides rack-andstack scalability, redundant and modular components, reduced single points of failure and impact of hardware replacement, support for 4000 ports, and is designed to support tens of thousands of ports in the future

Deploying rich-media applications across heterogeneous networks requires a flexible, dependable, and

Zero downtime upgrades – Application components and functions are seamlessly modifiable, with automatic detection of new elements, features, and applications, and automatic synchronization of databases

unique capabilities for offering differentiated services, while reducing operating expenses and deployment

Advanced security architecture – Separate administration and media networks further supported by LDAP authorization and authentication, encrypted protocols, SSH, and Nessus™ compliance Increase revenue protection – Built-in redundancy and resiliency reduce risk of service outage and downtime, eliminating potential revenue loss by maintaining complete functionality during upgrades and transitions Decrease deployment costs – Provides out-of-the-box functionality for most users, plus enables fast and specific tailoring to specific user requirements

scalable architecture. The IMS-based, SIP platform Proxias application server and Proxias application development environment delivers an unmatched foundation for developing and deploying rich-media conferencing applications across networks, platforms, and devices. Designed to fit seamlessly into IMS or hybrid service provider environments, the Proxias platform provides costs. A simplified architecture and centralized management capabilities also streamline administration and help lower operating costs. A key element in Polycom’s scalable IMS-compliant architecture, the Proxias application server works in conjunction with the Polycom InnoVox® 4000IP media server – and is architected to support additional media servers in the future, including the RMX 2000™ platform – to optimize audio and video conferencing as a core component of next-generation service architectures. As a resilient platform optimized for call signaling, server clustering, fault tolerance, media resource management and more, the Proxias application server underpins a wide range of collaboration applications, including ReadiVoice®, the world’s most-deployed service provider audio conferencing solution. The Proxias architecture also includes built-in capabilities fully prepared for highly scalable next-generation video conferencing applications and applications for device, network, and conference management.
