Saguna Networks Ltd develops an innovative technology that offers a viable business model for delivery of high quality, rich content over mobile networks to the masses.
Saguna's mobile Content Delivery Network (mCDN) slashes content transport cost by approx. 70%,
while creating a new standard in user experience and service delivery.
Saguna CODS™ solution is structured as a multi-layer multi-node proxy. The nodes (CODS-AN™ and
CODS-MR™) are located within the Mobile Core Network and the Mobile RAN. The system that is
totally transparent to all network layers (transport, mobility, service) and to the terminal devices,
performs caching and scheduling decisions based on the type of data and the content flowing through
the network, consequently adding "Content Awareness" to the network.
Saguna CODS™ solution improves the overall performance of the mobile network in the following aspects:
1. Up to 70% reduction of traffic loads during peak hours over the mobile Core and Backhaul network
2. 20% to 30% increase in utilization of the Radio resources
3. Significant improvement of "start of service" time
4. Smooth and stall-free surfing/viewing experience.
Saguna's patent pending technology supports all content types, and guarantees a very short ROI
cycle of approximately eight months. The system is scalable and can be deployed starting from a
minimum of two nodes and growing to a several thousand node system that can deliver Tera-bits of
content per second.
Saguna's products are all Telco-grade and NEBS-certified, providing the highest level of reliability and
availability.
Saguna targets the content delivery over mobile networks market. The yearly expenditure of MNO's
on data services in 2008 was 25 Billion EURO and is expected to grow 7 folds by 2015 (Mason analysis
