The CSG recently announced that mediation will be available by the cloud.  This platform will be hosted by Amazon Web Services and make it possible to meet mediation demands in real-time.  The cloud-based solution will be able to elastically scale, which means costs will be tied to current demand, as opposed to the tradition method of paying upfront to account for the peaks that can be unpredictable.

According to Chad Dunavant, global head of product management for CSG, “As demands continue to escalate resulting from the deployment of 5G and the growth in IoT, the need for mediating new usage data records will increase in importance. ”

Using mediation in the cloud can provide a significant cost savings and make the process more efficient.  It is an opportunity to provide the most efficient and effective option for service providers and is available with limited risk.  Furthermore, there is very little disruption to the current systems.  The platform is also able to provide support with additional issues on the backend.
