"This is a completely new focus for NMS," said David Asher, the company's product management director.

Several years ago that would have been the case, Asher conceded, but not now.
"With all sorts of changes in the business environment over the last year we've seen customers turn around and say it's time to outsource.There are a lot of technologies, like video, that they can't keep pace with.They have new applications to get to market, fewer people than before and now NMS can serve them better by being a commercial media server vendor," Asher said.

When it changes, NMS wants to be ready with a media server platform that expands on the capabilities of current products and gives vendors a better drop-in product to get to market quickly, said Asher.
"Our go-to-market really doesn't change; we're still a component vendor, we're just making our customers get to market much, much faster," he said.
