Our Services

We provide tailored consulting services and technical solutions to match our customers' needs.

Technically-informed consultancy: delivering clear and insightful reports with specific and actionable conclusions
Tool-supported performance investigations: deploying PNSol's tried-and-tested measurement and analysis tools to uncover the root causes of performance issues
Enhanced consultancy: creating bespoke software to address specific needs, such as exploring architectural trade-offs in a distributed system design
Bespoke tool/system development: working with customers and third party suppliers to create tools and systems that integrate with existing processes to deliver ongoing value

Our services can be provided as:

A one-off exercise to fix a particular problem: such as troubleshooting the deployment of a new product or service;
A "Health Check" (NetHealthCheck™): a thorough analysis of the cost and QoE the network provides that informs a strategic plan to both improve service and reduce cost;
An ongoing measurement and delivery capability: providing ongoing business value

Our Expertise

Our expertise is based on many years of scientific study and practical experience. It includes:

Network measurement

Traditional approaches to measuring and characterising network and subsystem performance miss essential features that impact on overall application delivery. PNSol has over a decade's experience in capturing these features and assisting customers in interpreting them.

Distributed systems modelling

Inability to predict QoE constrains operators and their suppliers in optimising the cost of delivering services, and makes the development of new ones expensive and risky. PNSol's modelling approach can reduce the cost, uncertainty and risk associated with creating new services or system architectures.

Packet scheduling

Basic engineering capabilities taken for granted in the circuit world are lacking for packet networks. We can provide tools and appliances to precisely engineer packet network services to deliver reliable application outcomes.

Supply chain management

The packet network digital supply chain frequently delivers disappointment, conflict and acrimony. We can enable supply contracts to be clearly expressed; combined with predictable consequences; and effectively enforced.
