Allot: "Operators ask for DPI with Value-added Services"

     

Allot's CEO, Rami Hadar, addressed during the Q3 results conference call today the increase in R&D expenses reported for Q3 ($2.9M compared to $2.4M on Q3 09).

According to Hadar, the company had expedited the development of new Value-added Services for the Service Gateway product, as customers require DPI products to provide additional services beyond the traditional DPI/traffic shaping features.
Allot provides today 3 value-added services in security, URL filtering and video caching. It was also reported that the latter, Allot's Mediaswift, was deployed recently in several projects (see also - "Caching Market: PeerApp OEMs to ALU, Allot and BTI Systems" - here).

Hadar said that the new services, originally planned to be developed during 2011, will probably be announced on early 2011.
