Hughes Network Systems created a new certification program to be implemented under the Hughes Broadband Alliance.

Through the DirecWAY Certified program, HNS will test and validate the performance of software applications in advance, so that broadband corporate networks can be deployed faster, at less cost, and with substantially higher levels of confidence.

The DirecWAY Certified program measures performance of software applications over satellite networks. The program will save enterprises and their IT managers considerable time and resources in selecting and evaluating applications targeted to operate in a satellite network environment.

HNS has organized the certification program to include the following initial application categories: Polling and remote management; browser-based, back office support; remote control; OS and TCP/IP stacks; streaming media; and e-learning. Each category is customized with a particular set of test processes and performance criteria, which establishes the benchmark for operation in the DirecWAY environment and for achieving DirecWAY Certified status.
