FierceVoIP Selects Nominum for its "Fierce 15" VoIP Companies of 2006

Nov 8 2006

Redwood City, Calif., – Nov. 8, 2006 – Nominum, the leading provider of network naming and addressing solutions, today announced that it has been named to FierceVoIP’s annual Fierce 15 list. This distinction honors Nominum as one of the top 15 companies on the cutting-edge of the constantly evolving VoIP industry.

The FierceVoIP Fierce15 awards represent the best companies in the VoIP space that are making significant strides in the delivery and continued improvement of VoIP on a global scale. Winners, selected from amongst hundreds of organizations, demonstrated themselves to be “fierce” through their innovations in the marketplace.

“FierceVoIP congratulates Nominum on being named as one of the Fierce15,” said Dan Rosenbaum, editor of FierceVoIP. “By providing ENUM, DNS and DHCP naming and addressing solutions, Nominum is helping enable the VoIP revolution.”

As the demand for connecting advances services over IP-based networks increase, the costs and technical limitations associated with routing these services over the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) threaten to reduce the overall value for service providers. Nominum has applied its deep expertise in IP addressing and naming technologies to the problem of routing VoIP and other IP-application traffic in the converging communications landscape. Nominum Navitas builds on ENUM, the industry-standard specification, to create an IP-application Routing Directory (IPRD) for next-generation networks. With Navitas, carriers can implement “inter-carrier” VoIP peering with partners and also allows least-cost routing information, so that a call to a PSTN-based destination can travel as far as possible over IP-networks before transferring over to the PSTN, thereby reducing costs.

"Nominum is proud to be recognized in this market by FierceVoIP with such a product as Navitas,” said Albert Gouyet, vice president of marketing, Nominum, Inc. “FierceVoIP is a clear frontrunner in delivering news and information on the VoIP industry. We are honored to be a part of the Fierce15 as VoIP continues to gain traction in homes and business around the world.”

FierceVoIP is a bi-weekly email newsletter distributed by FierceMarkets that covers news and insights on the emerging VoIP industry, providing more than 32,000 subscribers a quick, authoritative briefing on the week’s top VoIP stories marketplace developments.

The complete list of winning companies is available today in a special issue of FierceVoIP and on the FierceVoIP Web site at http://www.fiercevoip.com.
