TM Forum Taps Monolith Software for Video Quality Assurance Expertise

ST. CHARLES, IL--(Marketwire - May 19, 2011) - Monolith Software, the market's first and only unified IT infrastructure management software provider, today announced that it has once again been invited to participate in the Catalyst program at TM Forum Management World's Forumville -- a showcase of best practices for service providers. Additionally, the Company will announce new enhancements to its flagship offering at TM Forum's Management World 2011, Convention Centre Dublin (Booth #21).

Forumville features continual live demonstrations of 20 Catalyst projects with participants from over 75 leading service providers and vendors. Monolith Software will partner with IBB Consulting Group to demonstrate new methods of quantifying video service quality, within the Catalyst's Market Zone track. The partnership will address service providers' ongoing concerns such as:

• Targeting video service availability, and
• How can service providers properly measure video service delivery?

Monolith Software's unified IT infrastructure management solution addresses these ongoing concerns with a single code base, multi-tenant architecture that provides a unique ability to quickly normalize and correlate data into a rich metric warehouse and displays customized results on real-time dashboards. The Company's unified approach streamlines and enhances fault, availability, performance, correlation, discovery and topology mapping, resulting in a simplified process for Service Level Management and capturing video on demand KPIs.

"Video Service Level Management (VSLM) has been an issue for MSOs from the beginning," said Jeff Parker, president, Monolith Software. "One of the primary issues is the lack of adequate network management software to provide insight into video service availability and quality. Monolith helps address this problem by extracting and combining video on demand KPIs with traditional network management data to provide a holistic view into video services from one consolidated dashboard."
