Project Requirements
Nectar needed a high performance rating engine application which will enable it to deploy their own in-house real time prepaid and postpaid billing and settlement solutions. The software was required to accept authorization and CDR requests and return rated results based on pre-loaded set of rating tables and custom charge or reverse formulas. Nectar required also the solution to accept XML formatted authorization/accounting requests on a request listener.
Solution
Avangard solutions offered its AVARating product to the customer and made some customizations in order to integrate with Nectar's systems.
