Internet Telephony December Digital Issue from TMS is avalible in my email box this morning.After skipped some papers, there are no any intersting content about technologies. Only one word, " IMS " in <<The year in review ... The year ahead>> in feature column draw my attention.
IMS: the IP Multimedia Subsystem, destined to yield a commom service architecture for both wireless and wireline ,and promising the ability to easily create and deploy a multitude of new service, stayed mostlyin the interoperability laboratories. More extensive trials and deployments will appear in 2007. As they do so and the world's communications infrastructure is renewed, you'll see heavy duty computing platforms appearing in the network based on AdvacedTCA and MicroTCA form factors and running switch fabrics such as 10 gigabit Ethernet, PCI Express, and Rapid I/O.
"When looing back at 2006 and looking ahead at 2007, I see developments in five areas. First, there's Architecture. I think we're moving from IMS as dogma to what I call 'IMS pragmatism'. I like to play with acronyms. IMS means a lot of things to many different people:To service providers from a business perspective , IMS stands for 'Incoming Money Soon'. From a vendor perspective, it means,'Install More Sh*#'. If you're on the operations side, trying to make it work. it means, 'Inflict More Suffering'. And in the backgroud across all of this ,it means that the 'IETF[Socialistic] Mindset Sucks'. As you can tell, I'm not politically correct, I'm very irreverent."
