Intelligent Networking: The new foundation being established for dynamic service chaining builds on the technologies that underlie SDN and NFV. The blueprint offered by the Intel Open Network Platform Server reference architecture provides a commercially viable way—based on SDN—to create catalogs of network resources and associated policies abstracted from the hardware. Dynamic service chaining extends […]

Software Defined Infrastructure: Sandra Rivera, VP, Intel Data Center Group, at Light Reading‘s 2015 Big Telecom Event, talks about accelerating transformation in the network with Intel Open Network Platform (Intel ONP) and the growing Intel Network Builders ecosystem.

Intelligent Networking: Virtual video transcoding for OTT and live/linear video content: Delivering maximum streams/density per RU for mobile video consumption as well as speech transcoding for cloud-based media processing for C-RAN and vRAN network functions, shown on Artesyn GPU-accelerated SharpStreamer edge platforms with Vantrix software.

Intelligent Networking: If you use carrier-grade as your design-point you realise there are a lot of enterprise segments you can tackle as well, such as financial services, Sandra Rivera explains to Martyn Warwick. She talks about how she’s glad that infrastructure is getting its turn in the limelight this year at MWC;  how important IoT […]

Intelligent Networking: With 23 NFV proofs of concept and a growing partner ecosystem, HP is demonstrating to communications service providers the value and viability of NFV solutions. Having access to the open source and open software community is also benefiting providers and network operators, as work continues on defining the necessary NFV frameworks and standards.

Intelligent Networking: NFV is a clear trend and will profoundly change the telecom industry, Leo Ma tells Martyn Warwick. The hardware is being de-coupled from software and Huawei is ready to embrace this new principle with Fusion Engine, but telecom performance requirements must be considered. The first requirement in this new world is to be […]

Intelligent Networking: ETSI is playing a fundamental role in the development of NFV standards, ensuring interoperability between device vendors and collaboration with other industry groups. As work progresses during the ninth NFV meeting in Prague, TelecomTV asks the ETSI Director General about the accomplishments to date and his expectations for the adoption of the the […]

Intelligent Networking: Ericsson has partnered with Intel to add software and hardware to enable highly governed, secure and hyperscale cloud, as part of a transition to software defined networking.

Intelligent Networking: This paper outlines an approach for Service Assurance in an SDN/NFV world that enables more open and deterministic service deployment and resource usage.
