“Over the last few years, the deployment of on-premises Operational Support systems (OSS) and Business Support Systems (BSS) solutions dominated the market. However, cloud deployment is becoming the favourable deployment type among telecom service providers, owing to which this segment is expected to overtake on-premises deployment in the coming years. Factors like stiff competition, quickly changing customer demand for new services and pressure to reduce price are forcing the service providers to go for cloud deployment as it reduces the initial cost of on-premises deployment. Cloud deployment also helps service providers to get infrastructure as per their requirements.” said Mr Karan Chechi, Research Director with TechSci Research, a research-based global management consulting firm.
