Microsoft Shows Off the Toys in Its Sandbox
Microsoft demonstrates new managed network mashups from Sandbox members, announces winner of first Sandbox developer competition, welcomes new Sandbox partners, wins NXTcomm award.
The Connected Services Sandbox was created to help telecommunications service providers rapidly develop, test and commercialize a range of innovative new services,” said Michael O’Hara, general manager for the Communications Sector at Microsoft. “By taking an operator’s core network assets and combining them with technologies and applications from the Web 2.0 world, the Sandbox brings operators closer to Telco 2.0. Operators have an opportunity to deliver hundreds, if not thousands, of new revenue-generating services to their customers in this new telecom order, and the Connected Services Sandbox is key in accelerating this process.
