VODAFONE UK IMPLEMENTS COPPEREYE FOR TIMELY ACCESS TO HIGH-VOLUME CALL DETAIL RECORDS

Demonstration System Captures Three-hundred Million Records Per Day With Retrieval Within Seconds

March 22, 2006 - Stamford, Conn. - CopperEye, an innovator in enterprise search software that delivers order-of-magnitude performance improvements and cost savings, today announced that Vodafone has successfully implemented CopperEye Greenwich as a component of their solution to better analyze probing data from their General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) switches -- a mobile data service available to users of GSM mobile phones.

"Our work with Vodafone is a clear example of how taking an enterprise search approach to accessing large volumes of transaction data, rather than the typical approach of using a database, pays great dividends in shorter implementation time and higher performance," said Kate Mitchell, CEO of CopperEye. "Vodafone UK was able to implement Greenwich in a matter of weeks for more than a billion records, and expanding the volume of data is as simple as adding additional disk drives."

The data of interest to Vodafone UK is generated directly from the GPRS network elements and contains information on connections, disconnections, what services were used, websites visited, starting portal and any problems experienced throughout the data call. These records are created at a rate of 300 million transactions per day, with a business need to save at least 30 days for analysis. The role CopperEye plays in the solution is allowing the data to be captured and saved on a low-cost file system, and then quickly retrieved using CopperEye without the need for a database.

CopperEye Greenwich is currently available on all tier-one UNIX platforms. Pricing is determined by the number of rows of data under management and is tailored to each customer environment. Pricing typically represents a 75-80 percent reduction in the cost of hardware and software for traditional commercial database approaches of comparable performance.

About Vodafone UK

Vodafone UK has 15.8 million customers and is part of the world's largest mobile community offering a wide range of voice and data communications. On the 1st January 1985, the first mobile phone call was made by Ernie Wise on the Vodafone network. Since then, Vodafone was the first to introduce SMS in 1994 and to make a 3G voice call in July 2001. Vodafone UK was the world's first mobile operator to introduce international roaming, now connecting customers with standard roaming agreements in 174 countries, GPRS roaming in over 55 countries and 250 cities worldwide using 3G.

Following the launch of Vodafone UK's Mobile Connect 3G/GPRS data card in April 2004, the company launched Vodafone live! 3G in November 2004 offering services such as video-calling and music downloads. Vodafone's 3G UK population coverage currently stands at 72 per cent and the network is being continually expanded.
