Press Release
How network operators can identify and mitigate deployment risks
Expert panel debate with Ericsson, Redknee, Nakina Systems, Comptel and Citrix. Guest analyst from Analysys Mason.
Thursday 30 April 2015, 5pm London | 12pm New York | 6pm Paris | 8pm Dubai
This roundtable will examine the deployment challenges operators face as they virtualise their network functions.
Join us on Thursday 30th April to hear our expert panel discuss:
Why virtualised VoLTE and virtualised CPE are the first NFV use cases.
Are pre-integrated platforms essential?
Is the cultural shift a greater challenge for CSPs than the technical one?
How will CSPs manage complex service chains over virtual and hybrid networks?
What orchestration technologies are CSPs deploying?
First, we’ll explore which areas are being virtualised earliest – is it VoLTE or customer premise equipment deployments that are leading the way? We’ll assess which is riskier and how communications service providers (CSPs) are addressing the challenges associated with NFV deployment.
Next, we’ll assess the approaches being taken to prepare for NFV and, ultimately, bring it to market. We’ll explore whether pre-integrated platforms are essential and how organisations can prepare culturally for the shift from network-oriented to IT-oriented technology?
Finally, we’ll examine how operators will manage complex service chains over virtualised and hybrid virtual/physical networks. We’ll discuss the orchestration challenge, what orchestration technologies and solutions that are available and how they are being trialled and deployed.
This online event is being held at 17:00 LONDON | 12:00 New York, on Thursday, 30th April. It is free to attend and you can register here: http://bit.ly/1beazZC
