Case Study: How We Are Helping floLIVE Deliver Innovation

Learn how SPD Group is collaborating on developing a module system, the world’s first Software-Defined Connectivity (SDC) solution, for Telecom and IoT industries

Overview
SPD Group started a partnership with Israel-based company BD-Innovations, which was a complex Business Support System (BSS) platform for modern telecom operators. In late 2019, floLIVE acquired BD-Innovations, and our development team joined the new owners. BD-Innovations was a cellular provider, with their own networks as well as an early version of a billing system for clients, named Rater Engine.

After the acquisition by floLIVE, Rater Engine had to be improved to remain consistent with the vision and demands of the new business. This complex task was entrusted exclusively to a team of 4 experts from SPD Group. After a rigorous analysis, our team decided to build a new Rater Engine, a 3.0 version, completely from scratch, which would align with the modern technological standards. We collaborated directly with the Solution Architect and Technical Director on this project.

floLIVE is the world’s first Software-Defined Connectivity (SDC) solution — a converged, cloud-native, global connectivity service with inherent billing that is fully designed and built for IoT services. floLIVE raised a total of $37M in funding in Series B, backed by Intel Capital, 83North, ARIE Capital Group, Dell Technologies Capital, Qualcomm Ventures, and Saban.
The company offers a full suite of IoT connectivity solutions for businesses, including:

• IoT Connectivity Platform
• Cloud-managed Mobile Private Network (LTE/5G)
• Global IoT Network as-a-service (LTE/5G)
• A Cloud-based BSS, built for IoT

floLIVE is a module platform, where every module is built around the main one based on the customer needs. The Rater Engine is just one of the modules covered by SPD Group, and we hope to take over more exciting tasks in the future, including IoT Networks, Cloud Services, and corporate-level solutions.

Business Goals
Rater Engine is the main focus of this case study. From the perspective of our client, the main value of this system lies in the improved customer experience and satisfaction, offering the best possible service in the market. From the technical point of view, it can be achieved by improving the speed of response of the high-loaded system. Our team is set to build a modern software solution according to the client’s requirements, with a close-to-instant speed of response that will ultimately add to the functionality, profitability, and reputation of floLIVE.
