Overview and Context
SFR Réunion (SFRR) is SFR Group's subsidiary operator for the Réunion island.
Like in the Caribbean, local Mobile Operators face strong competition. Mobile Operators offer local content and value-added products to differentiate their offers.
AIRWEB started working with SFRR through SFR France and especially sports services with locally-oriented contents.
Solution provided by AIRWEB
Following its success in the Caribbean, AIRWEB provided the music distribution platform (Full Track Solution): duplication of the previously developed solution.
In addition, AIRWEB developed the following specific solution:
- A complete remodeling of 5 mobile portals (SFR Réunion official, NRJ mobile, Mayotte, Teenagers portal,…) working with all the operating systems and environments
- Specific Web site portal: http://le-portail.sfr.re.
Added Value
Adding significant and various local content (photo, video, text) from different sources, SFRR faced difficulties to harmonize the treatment and restitution of this local content.
AIRWEB optimised the process and developed a specific interconnection platform for the mobile, Web and soon iTV distribution.
