Success Stories

Telecommunications

Airtel

Airtel’s solutions provider, Bharti Telesoft, designed a unique televoting application that uses Short Messages as the media for polling votes. The application was developed on open standards. Televoting effectively enables Airtel’s mobile subscribers to participate in various SMS contests aired on both KBC & Indian Idol. The system handles tremendous peak loads of mobile-originated (MO) messages generated by subscribers and processes it according to a pre-configured format specified by the two TV programs. The application caters to subscriber traffic across millions of users in seven different Airtel Circles over a pre-defined short code (646).
