JSDN Capabilities in Support of Service Providers
The JSDN solution enables Service Providers to deliver internal cloud services as well as external IaaS, PaaS, SaaS and other 3rd party provided cloud services. The JSDN provides a unified cloud services delivery platform that consolidates service and user management for a wide array of cloud services, with key features including:
- Unified provisioning, administration, billing, settlement, support, security and catalogue services.
- Service integration adapters which connect the JSDN to third party-provided hosted solutions, offered by ISVs with whom Jamcracker has established Master Distribution Agreements.
- Jamcracker can also on-board core services and others that are hosted within service providers’ own data centers.
- Ecosystem partners can be both a supplier and a distributor of services. For example, carriers can publish their own core services to the JSDN, enabling them to create best-of-breed cloud services bundles that comprise internal and externally-provided solutions.
- Pre-integrated, distribution-ready services available through the JSDN include infrastructure, security, data backup, messaging, collaboration, mobility and business productivity solutions from Microsoft, Cisco, McAfee, Blackberry, IBM, Google and dozens of other best-of-breed cloud service providers.
- An n-tier distribution model that supports ecommerce sales, direct sales and channel enablement. This provides the flexibility to create different fferings to meet the highly variable needs of their existing and net new customers, increases the productivity of their sales and channel operations, and empowers them to offer personalized services using a subscription or pay-per-use model.
Jamcracker's solution can be operated within a Service Provider's own data center or hosted by Jamcracker. Either approach enables Service Providers to leverage the JSDN infrastructure, its pre-integrated cloud services wholesale relationships, as well as its established processes for sourcing, selecting, negotiating, integrating, testing, branding, bundling and delivering "best-of-breed" cloud solutions.
Service Provider's existing core services, and those of their partners', can be on-boarded within weeks so that internally and externally hosted services can be bundled together to drive synergies. And with the continuing integration of new 3rd party solutions to the JSDN ecosystem, a rapidly growing set of additional services can be easily added to a Service Provider's services catalog. JSDN provides our Service Providers with the ultimate in flexibility, enabling a future-proof platform for market and service innovation
