Considering expansion of the subscriber base and, consequently, increased IP traffic, COMSTAR-UTS has decided to integrate a solution that enables management of e-mail services and protection of users’ messages. Upon testing, the provider has selected IMP platform by Bizanga.

“Before we integrated Bizanga IMP solution, we had to commission new servers to process an increased amount of data, – says Viktor Belov, Director for development of service platforms and networks of JSC COMSTAR-UTS. – Quick deployment of the platform enables creation of the system, the performance of which may be easily enhanced as required. Integration with the leading solution for spam protection by Yandex has enabled protection of our infrastructure and clients against information attacks”.

“As Russia sees the quickest growth in a number of Internet users among European countries, and this country has one of the biggest population in the world, Russian providers have to face unique challenges, – says Jerome Lecat, Director of Bizanga. – Our company provides solutions tailored to specific conditions in which our partners work”. By the end of quarter 3 of 2008, a number of subscribers of COMSTAR-UTS broadband Internet access (STREAM trademark, premium segment) in Moscow reached 688 thousand, having accrued 52% over a year.
