Research & Development Partners (RDP) has signed a partnership agreement with Bee Pitron with the intention to enter the Indian market.

The RDP company was founded in 2010 as part of the Ecotelecom group of companies, which became the first customer of a newly formed vendor. RDP’s specialisation is the development of solutions and enterprises based on commodity platforms (x86). In 2013, RDP entered the Russia market of carrier-class solutions with the EcoNAT product, and sales to telecom operators started the same year.

After having developed very successful solutions, technically customised for the promising Russian market, RDP won the major tender of Rostelecom, one of the biggest and most renown telecom operators in Russia. It resulted in supplying carrier grade network address translation  (CG-NAT) equipment for the internet protocol multi-protocol label switching (IP/MPLS) network at the end of 2015. In 2016, Rostelecom and RDP closed a deal according to which the major Russian operator invested in RDP, that’s when the company entered Rostelecom’s ecosystem.

The deep packet inspection (DPI) solution is designed to analyse packages up to the application layer (Layer 7) of the open systems interconnection (OSI) model. It detects traffic from more than 3,200 different applications.

Recently, RDP showcased its innovative solutions at GITEX GLOBAL 2023 which took place in Dubai. Over the last two years the number of developers in the company grew significantly to address the market’s needs for efficient carrier-grade products. The company successfully launched two large-scale international projects in the CIS and now is focused on entering the Indian market.

Commenting on the partnership, Maria Selezneva, lead, communications, RDP, said, “For us, targeting such a diverse and promising market as India’s, is of the highest importance at the moment. We are aware of the current demand for solutions, such resilient and productive as ours, to help create a better-connected world, and hope that RDP products for high load systems will meet all the requirements of Indian partners and customers”.

Moreover, RDP is open to cooperation with the local partners in what’s related to tailoring existing products to the Indian market in full.
