Getting Started with IMS

My first post will be to introduce myself and the purpose of this blog. So to get started I would like to introduce myself. I'm Jay Stewart. I'm currently CTO of a startup company. I have been in test and measurement of IP networks for close to 20 years now. Wow, having said that I realize how old I'm getting. Anyway, I have worked with Ethernet, Token Ring, FDDI, ATM, HSSI, T1 and yes even VGAnyLAN. That's right VGAnyLAN. Does anyone even remember that one. I have also worked on VoIP, IPTV, Metro Ethernet and now IMS(IP Multimedia Subsytem).

Which brings me to the reason for this blog. I started looking into IMS about 6 months ago. I have a lot of experience into the IP industry and I know that with this industry there comes what I call the Hype wave. After about 12 months of that the reality phase might come. I have been trying to understand what is IMS, Why IMS and will IMS become a reality. Having worked through this the last 6 months I have come to one conclusion. That conclusion is that I haven't been able to find any straight answers to any of those questions. Depending on who you talk to and the industry they represent you might get many different answers.

Hopefully through this blog I will be able to help people step through the IMS web easier then I have been able to. I hope to explain what IMS is, or as at least explain all the new acronyms. What is real and not real in IMS today and some of the time lines for IMS.

I'm also working with several people from other companies in the IMS arena that are experiencing the same issues. So I will be using them as references for this blog. If you have any areas of interest you would like for me to cover please let me know. I will try to cover to the best of my knowledge.

We are currently setting up an IMS lab and hopefully will be online by the end of April. I will be updating lessons learned on this experience, which could be quite a few.

Thanks for reading and looking forward to sharing and learning with you.
