SinaIMS – IP Multimedia System for Mobile and Fixed Networks
SinaIMS is a native IP Multimedia Subsystem for mobile and fixed networks that enables MNO, MVNO and fixed network operators to provide a full range of multimedia services. Supporting services such as VoLTE, ViLTE, VoWiFi, SMS and interworking with CS and PS networks, this platform creates an integrated platform for providing next-generation communication services.
SinaIMS is developed based on 3GPP, IETF and GSMA standards and with a cloud-native and microservice-based architecture, it provides scalability from tens of thousands to millions of subscribers on a modern cloud infrastructure. This system has been operationally implemented in MVNO networks so far and is also being deployed in MNO networks.
Common usage scenarios
- MVNO: Providing VoLTE/ViLTE and multimedia services using the access network and part of the EPC of the host operator
- MNO: Providing voice and multimedia services to LTE subscribers and interfacing with the CS network via MGCF
- FTTx: Providing fixed voice and video services to FTTx subscribers via SIP Phone or POTS
- Cloud-native architecture based on Microservices with high scalability and HA
- Complete hardware independence and deployment capability on Bare Metal, VM and PaaS (Kubernetes)
- Full support for IMS security standards
- Support for VoWiFi and Wi-Fi Offloading
- Flexibility for mobile and fixed networks (2G to 5G, Wi-Fi and FTTx)
- Possibility of development and customization to suit the needs of operators
