Telecommunications Services of Trinidad and Tobago (TSTT), the largest communications solutions provider in its country, selected Optiva for cloud modernization to Optiva BSS Platform next-generation full BSS stack.
The partnership includes a five-year subscription services agreement with Optiva.

It will enable TSTT to quickly expand its revenue streams and launch new business use cases faster.
As a cloud-native, Kubernetes-based platform, the end-to-end solution will provide TSTT with easier operations, native redundancy, and automated CI/CD delivery. TSTT will gain the advantages of fast rollouts of new features with zero downtime and evergreen software.
