TELCO NETWORKING CHALLENGES TODAY Revenue vs Traffic Growth vs Network Cost
This is what we have and continue to have …
NETWORK FUNCTIONS VIRTUALISATION Business Motivation
Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) is a network architecture concept that proposes using virtualization related technologies, to
virtualize entire classes of network node functions into building blocks that may be connected, or chained, together to create
communication services.
• Revolutionizing the traditional building practice of Network Equipment and enabling the interchangeability / freedom of choice of Network Functions
• Building the path towards 5G innovative Network Services by enhancing QoS, Bandwidth & Latency for IoT, M2M, Content Delivery (e.g. VoD)
THE TELCO INDUSTRY IS ALREADY INVESTING Much of this is enabled by open source
Software Defined Networks (SDN)
Network Functions Virtualisation (NFV)
5G networks
Video and Content Delivery Network services
IoT, M2M and Mobile application development
Platforms
83% Of Telco operators demand or prefer open systems for their networks
95% Of Telco operators see open source as a positive attribute for NFV solutions
Faster innovation
Choice of vendors
Powerful think-tank
WHY OPEN SOURCE FOR TELCO ?
OPEN SOURCE COLLABORATIVE DEVELOPMENT Driving today's software innovation
KEY TELCO NETWORKING RELATED COMMUNITIES
ETSI hosted Industry Specification (ISG) Group for NFV. Red Hat is a full ETSI member, supporting NFV. www.etsi.org/technologies-clusters/technologies/nfv
OPNFV is a open source project focused on accelerating NFV's evolution through an integrated, open platform. www.opnfv.org
Open Source SDN Platform, leading the transformation to Open SDN www.opendaylight.org
ETSI NFV ISG REFERENCE ARCHITECTURE
KEY NFV MANO RELATED COMMUNITIES
Open Source Mano is an ETSI-hosted project to develop an Open Source NFV Management and Orchestration (MANO) software stack aligned with ETSI NFV. osm.etsi.org
Open Orchestration is a project which will bring the industry together to develop the first open source software framework and orchestrator to enable agile SDN and NFV operations. www.open-o.org
Automate, optimize, control and orchestrate your cloud and virtualization services. http://manageiq.org/
Tacker is an official OpenStack project building a Generic VNF Manager (VNFM) and a NFV Orchestrator (NFVO) to deploy and operate Network Services and Virtual Network Functions (VNFs) on an NFV infrastructure platform like OpenStack. openstack.org
ECOMP
Enhanced Control, Orchestration, Management and Policy (ECOMP). On July 13th 2016, AT&T announced they are working with the Linux Foundation to open source the ECOMP platform
