SANTA CLARA, Calif., Oct. 15, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PanTerra Networks, a leading provider of unified cloud services for mid-market enterprises, today announced the expansion of Streams, as a Communications Platform as a Service (CPaaS) with the new release of Streams APIs, Streams Extensions and Streams AppDesigner. Businesses can now implement Streams as a Unified Communications as a Service (UCaaS) or as a Communications Platform as a Service (CPaaS). CPaaS interfaces includes Streams APIs, which allow programmatic access to Streams services and content. Streams API will initially launch with support for Click-to-Call, Call Detailed Records (CDR) retrieval, Call Recording (CR) retrieval and SMS texting (Send, Receive and Logs).
