A short update to the table, to correctly reflect HP's policy product as part of HP's Subscriber, Network and Application Policy package, or SNAP.

"HP's SNAP product portfolio includes HP Unified Policy Manager, HP Dynamic Profiler, HP RealTime Charging, and Promotion and Campaign Manager. It offers an investment-wise step towards defining and implementing your long-term policy management strategy."

The policy manager is said to:

•Enables real-time management of network resources in-sync with subscribers and applications

•Complies with 3GPP Policy and Charging Rules Function (PCRF), CableLabs, TISPAN, and other industry standards

•Provides real-time, in-session policy decisions

•Open towards any Policy and Charging Enforcement Function (PCEF)

HP's press release "HP Helps Telecoms Improve Customer Experience with Real-time Policy Management" - here, states the interoperability with Allot - "Mobile operators must have real-time, application-aware policy management,” said Vin Costello [picture], vice president and general manager, Allot Communications Inc. “HP SNAP, with Allot policy enforcement and deep packet inspection, is a complete, dynamic policy solution that can help operators enrich the customer experience and optimize revenues.”
