Accanto Systems

On 1 April 2020, Accanto announced that it had transitioned the sales and service of its Stratoss™ Lifecycle Manager product to IBM. This was a specific asset-level transaction, meaning IBM took over the go-to-market and support aspects of that product without acquiring Accanto.

Headquartered in Finland and operating globally, Accanto provides software to help customers simplify and automate the production of cloud networking services. In providing tools that unify engineering and operations, we decrease the time and resource required to design, test, and simplify the production-to-live process, leading to smarter operations. Accanto designs-in operational lifecycle best practice to operate, predict and automate carrier and enterprise grade networks and applications.

Stratoss is a new cloud native product, designed to deliver web-scale levels of operational automation for the cloud-based networking world across highly distributed environments – both to telco and enterprise service providers.

A new OSS “in the control plane”, Stratoss accelerates the design, creation and continuous optimization of enterprise and communications services. It delivers “lights out” operational automation across hybrid and distributed cloud environments, lowering the cost of managing edge cloud fabrics for Enterprise and 5G, and increasing the pace of innovation.

Built from scratch as a fully cloud native product, Stratoss offers comprehensive end-to-end Service Orchestration, productized service modelling and design-to-operation DevOps CICD features, to create a unique product solution.
