UDC (User Data Consolidation) enables customer-centric networks, simplifying the complexity of managing subscription data in telecommunication networks. UDC is a flexible system and can be adjusted to all other systems in telecommunications.
HLR (Home Location Register) is a large database with details of every active mobile device in telecom network. The purpose of the HLR is to provide the functionality to store this information and process any requests for validation of the subscriber. The database is frequently updated. Whenever capacity is exhausted or network enhancements are introduced, the data structure for each subscriber may be enhanced. In this case, the data in the old HLR (Source HLR) has to be moved seamlessly to the new HLR (Target HLR) to ensure that no subscriber information is lost. This process is called HLR migration, which has been successfully completed by the company.
Expansion of packet-switched network is one of the important processes towards the development of customer practice. With this network, Azercell will be able to increase data transmission. As a result, Azercell subscribers will not experience low data speed even during peak hours of internet usage.
In general, all the above mentioned processes provide for the convenience of the subscribers, as they all lead to the enhancement.
Azercell, which has introduced a number of technological innovations in Azerbaijan, will remain committed to its mission and continue to further strengthen its network in order to make lives of its customers easier through innovative solutions and modern services.
