Toronto, Ont.–November 3, 2010–Compugen Inc., Canada’s largest privately owned IT solutions and services provider, is pleased to announce that it has been recognized at the September 2010 Channel Elite Awards for its high-availability, highly secure internetworking implementation for KORE Telematics.

The award recognizes work that Compugen performed with CISCO™ for KORE Telematics™, the world’s largest fully digital wireless network provider specializing exclusively in the rapidly expanding machine-to-machine (M2M) communications market. For the joint press release, please follow this link.

Compugen, a Cisco Gold Certified Partner, deployed Cisco's ASR 1000 Series routers to help enable KORE to rapidly scale its business to support more than 11 million wireless devices while delivering high reliability, network redundancy and superior system performance.

Compugen’s solution for KORE Telematics produced three main benefits:
Network resiliency and reliability has been a big factor in enabling KORE to win new business, including one of the largest vending companies in North America and a large power company.

Dramatically improved performance is another important benefit customers are gaining as a result of the joint KORE-Compugen effort. With overall network latency cut in half, faster data acquisition is allowing for faster downstream processing and decision-making, an especially important consideration for customers operating with real-time data.

In addition, customers now have greater flexibility in how they connect to the KORE network – as many as six different methods versus the previous one or two – and the new network is much more scalable – current peak utilization is only at six per cent, so growth in excess of 10 million devices on the network can easily be supported.
