Atelis develops best-of-class, cost-effective, end-to-end integrated hardware-software IP telephony solutions for carriers and for enterprises of all sizes. Its products are based on the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 operating system, the IBM server platform, and Digium/Asterisk integral cards. By aggregating the combined technologies of Asterisk and Atelis in a single services development platform, the creation of new services or the deployment of existing services modules is rapid, painless and inexpensive.
Asterisk is Digium's core technology. Because Asterisk follows an open source development model, the needs of the business community are quickly realized through the extensive worldwide network of contributors.
Since Asterisk is Linux-based, it inherits all the power and stability of the operating system. Linux provides open source alternatives to proprietary applications. Asterisk is the first package to fit all telecommunication needs in a broad variety of environments.
The name Asterisk is derived from the all-inclusive "wildcard" symbol in Unix®, because the Asterisk platform is providing opportunities for developers worldwide to create solutions which would otherwise be cost-prohibited or impossible.
Asterisk is global, supporting all sorts of applications
such as IVR platforms in Australia, university VoIP switches in Europe and call centers around the world.
