STOCKHOLM, June 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

Innovative data management platform provider in the running for coveted 2014 Light Reading Award 

DigitalRoute, the leading provider of mediation solutions globally, today announces that it has been selected as a finalist in the Outstanding OSS/BSS Vendor category of the Leading Lights Awards 2014.

DigitalRoute was selected primarily for providing new approaches to enterprise data management, in particular in relation to its recently launched Online Control and Service Assurance Mediation solutions. The company's MediationZone platform offers high throughput and provides a unique degree of user configurability, processing all usage and statistical data extracted from the networks, including both billable and non-billable events. This means customers gain greater cost efficiencies, improved times-to-market for new service offerings, the ability to monetize any data, and the means to enhance end-customer satisfaction.

2013, the period covered by the Light Reading Award, saw DigitalRoute introduce two highly innovative solutions. Service Assurance Mediation enables CSPs to leverage the millions of events generated in their networks daily to improve service quality and thereby enhance the customer experience. Online Control, which encompasses Service Control, Policy Control and Routing Control addresses today's growing challenge to minimize time-to-revenue via the creation of a leaner BSS.

Leading Lights is the annual awards program run by online publication Light Reading, the market-leading publication for the global telecom industry. Now in its 10th year, it is the communications industry's leading awards program. Light Reading's reputation for fiercely independent analysis makes this the most credible and authoritative awards program in the communications industry. The awards focus on next-generation communications technology, applications and services it rewards the companies that have performed well during the past year (April 1, 2013 to March 31, 2014).

"DigitalRoute is excited to be recognized again as being among the top communications companies," said Johan Bergh, CEO, DigitalRoute. "It underlines again our growing reputation as an important strategic component in our customers' future."

Award winners will be announced at the 2014 Innovation Awards reception, held in Chicago, Illinois on June 17, 2014 in parallel with Light and Heavy Reading's Big Telecom event.
