“We see the Logate team as extremely knowledgeable and efficient, deploying the project deliverables even before the agreed deadlines. By implementing OpenProvider AAA platform and vCDB we foresee higher stability of our services, higher data availability thanks to Cassandra database lying in the core of the solution, and also a platform with high TPS performance.
We are particularly content with the cost-quality ratio that we got with OpenProvider, which is perfectly comparable to the big names in the industry.”

Replacing existing AAA and redesigning existing environment
Logate began cooperation with Iskon Croatia in 2022, after successfully collaborating with Croatian Telekom on different use cases including the AAA platform.
Iskon had the need to modernize their existing network infrastructure, replace the legacy AAA solution used thus far and introduce improved AAA that will enable the delivery of stable and innovative use cases.
The project started with the Logate team replacing the existing AAA solution for fixed internet and implementing all services that Iskon currently offers to their subscribers on the new AAA platform.
Next, Logate participated in the redesign of existing environments which rely on AAA. With the new solution Iskon will separate the policing part in OpenProvider AAA and subscriber definition in the Central Database (CDB), which is a tailor made solution designed to meet the data management needs of OpenProvider AAA.
Using our Service Management Engine and OpenFunctions low-code platform, Iskon will have the possibility to introduce new services in a fast and easy way.
