Federation as a future key technology 
improves cooperation between organizations
Better cooperation.
Between companies.
The idea of social networks using web-based technologies has reached companies. The new, key tech-
nology, Federation, makes this improved cooperation possible. With federation, organizations can 
exchange presence information and instant messages today in an open and secure way (SIP SIMPLE & 
XMPP). In Europe, ESTOS stands at the forefront of this development and can provide solutions for different 
federation scenarios.
What is presence management?
In the world of classical CTI concepts it was not the user 
that was the focus, but rather their phone lines (“line-
centric architecture”). Here it was always, “line 177 – 
Franz Mueller – busy”.  ProCall Enterprise as a SIP based 
UC platform puts the emphasis on the person, a new 
“person-centric architecture”. Naturally, here the per-
son communicating comes first! Consequently, it is now 
“Franz Mueller – busy – in a call” or “Franz Mueller – 
busy – in a meeting until 12:00”. If on top of this you 
integrate new media into the communication concept 
then the following questions arise. Is the person I want 
to communicate with available? Through which medium 
can I make contact? The answer to this is provided by 
ProCall Enterprise’s integrated presence management 
system. It links the so-called presence information with 
each user. This is created by defined rules, based on the 
status of several services (e.g. telephony, calendar, and 
system services). The presence information provides 
dynamic information about the availability of the com-
munication partner.
What is instant messaging?
In today‘s typical office environment, two forms of media 
dominate: the telephone – to communicate in real-time 
(a synchronous medium), and E-mail – as the predomi-
nant form of correspondence (an asynchronous medium) 
for a less urgent form of communication. Other asynchro-
nous media, for example, the fax, is less important now 
due to the rise of E-mail communication. 
Because of continuous optimization of networks and the 
rising acceptance from users, another relatively new me-
thod for written correspondence has been established: 
instant messaging (IM, chat). With this method two or 
more users communicate via text messages. Messages 
are exchanged on a real-time basis via a push method. 
Users work usually with a special client application.
The clients are connected with each via the UC server 
or another service. The usage is as uncomplicated as 
E-mail, with the advantage that it allows for a spontaneous

Both presence management and instant messaging 
services complement telephone and E-mail very well. 
They allow the user to address the contact in a way 
appropriate to the situation.
