Presented by Rich Lopez is Global Head and VP of Solution Architecture for the Blue Planet Business Division of Ciena
Tuesday, 16th August 2016
Network operators are seeking to have end-to-end service orchestrations over a network built with multivendor network platforms. Blue planet is a software defined networking environment designed to facilitate this network transformation and automation. This presentation will outline the Blue Planet platform from a technology stand-point, and will examine its unique composition and paradigm of adoption of opensource technologies and open principles as have been proven in the web domain but which are relatively unknown in the Telco sector. The talk will cover topics such as:
- Blue Planet Architecture (philosophy, components, openness, opensource, standards, modeling, abstraction, API?s etc)
- Specifics of other Customer Projects (use cases, architecture adopted, integrations implemented, etc. This will include CORD, NFV, Automation, Orchestration scenarios.)
- OSS/BSS Integration (leveraging BP workflow engines incl BPMN, API?s)
- Programmability and the Blue Planet DevOps Kit (self-programmable facilities and methods for the accomplishment of this)
This is a FREE MNSI public event advertised for the interest of TelSoc members.
