("BATM" or "the Group")
Launch of Edgility networking NFV-based ecosystem
Release of Fast SD-WAN & Firewall as first Edgility
dedicated package
BATM (LSE: BVC; TASE: BVC), a leading provider of real-time
technologies for networking solutions and medical laboratory
systems, announces that its Telco Systems subsidiary has launched
Edgility, an ecosystem of networking products and services based on
its network function virtualisation ("NFV") technology. In
addition, Telco Systems has released its first dedicated package
under the Edgility product suite, which is a Fast SD-WAN &
Firewall offering that provides secure network connectivity for the
small office and home office ("SOHO") market.
Edgility is founded on the Group's NFV operating system,
Edgility OS (formerly NFVTime). This enables Edge compute whereby
data processing takes places at the network edge, nearer to the end
device, to improve response times and save bandwidth. With the
recent global trends of increased remote working, the Group
believes there is a significant opportunity for the provision of
connectivity solutions utilising Edge compute for the underserved
SOHO market. In addition, Edge compute is fundamental in enabling
Internet of Things ("IoT") technologies.
The Group's Fast SD-WAN (software-defined wide-area network)
& Firewall package provides a branch or home office with a
secure network connection at a cost-effective price by adopting a
novel approach to connectivity. Fast SD-WAN bypasses the need for a
dedicated MPLS or SD-WAN line at the core of the network, which are
resilient but costly, by leveraging multiple lines and the compute
power at the edge device. This provides optimal bandwidth across
the entire network by using application-based traffic
prioritisation.
The Group is targeting the package at telecoms service providers
and distributors to the SOHO market. By adopting Edgility Fast
SD-WAN & Firewall, they will be able to offer their enterprise
customers a secure access service edge ("SASE") solution that is
low cost and quick to provision thereby reducing the time to return
on investment. With the increasing digitalisation of business -
resulting in a proliferation of devices and applications - combined
with work-from-anywhere initiatives, Gartner predicts that by 2025,
at least 60% of enterprises will have explicit strategies and
timelines for SASE adoption encompassing user, branch and edge
access, up from 10% in 2020.
Edgility Fast SD-WAN & Firewall comprises a small, rugged
device developed by Telco Systems, which is pre-packaged with
Edgility OS integrated with Clavister's SD-WAN and class A
firewall. The devices are deployed at the central office and at the
branch office or employee homes, with a simple installation
process. This provides the remote locations with the same level of
security and connectivity as the central office at the core.
Dr Zvi Marom, CEO of BATM, said: "'Edgility' reflects our focus
on driving innovation at the network edge, which is underpinned by
our network function virtualisation technology. With the increasing
digitalisation of business and emergence of widespread hybrid
working, there is growing demand for Edge compute solutions and a
significant opportunity to establish an early-mover foothold in
this nascent market. Our Fast SD-WAN & Firewall package has
been launched to target this opportunity with what we believe is a
unique ability to provide secure connectivity at a comparatively
low cost and with a simple set up. We believe there is great
potential for this offering, which also expands our NFV
activities."
