Virgin Media Ireland deploys Ciena's Blue Planet

Virgin Media Ireland selected Blue Planet’s intelligent automation platform to modernize its Operational Support Systems (OSS) stack.

Prodapt, a telecommunications-focused company that serves as a partner to Blue Orbit and Virgin Media network OSS implementation, implemented and deployed the Blue Planet platform. This platform has enabled Virgin Media to rapidly introduce 2GB Full Fibre Broadband to both households and businesses throughout Ireland. Furthermore, the Blue Planet platform serves as a reliable and singular source of truth for both network and IT users, providing accurate information on the current state of the network. 

“Blue Planet is supporting Virgin Media Ireland with an adaptable, automated end-to-end order to service lifecycle, reducing delays and human errors often associated with legacy manual operations. By embracing intelligent automation, Virgin Media is in a better position to meet its goal of bringing faster connectivity across Ireland,” said Joe Cumello, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Blue Planet.
