New Product Delivers Unique Service Assurance for NFV-Based Applications
Munich, Germany. October 8, 2015. ADVA Optical Networking today achieved an
industry first with the launch of its FSP 150 ProVM product family. The ADVA FSP
150 ProVM is a new generation of edge network functions virtualization (NFV)
technology that significantly extends the capabilities of present network
interface devices by combining Carrier Ethernet 2.0 and IP demarcation with an
internal server that can host virtual network applications. What stands this
product family apart is that it's the only carrier-grade virtual network
functions (VNF) edge solution on the market that can deliver comprehensive
service assurance for both its integrated server as well as the connecting
network. Hardware-assisted monitoring enables service providers to directly
monitor the performance of applications in the most detailed and reliable manner
possible. Such service assurance is critical for service providers as they seek
to expand their business to offer managed network services.
"Service providers are standing on the edge of a new era of revenue opportunity.
NFV presents them with a real chance to dramatically increase the managed
services they sell," said Christoph Glingener, CTO, ADVA Optical Networking.
"The key to success here is in the implementation. Our new FSP 150 ProVM is the
only carrier-grade VNF solution in the industry that combines extensive,
hardware-assisted service assurance with virtual application hosting. And this
is critical. Service providers need the same level of operations, administration
and maintenance as they have with their existing demarcation technology. Without
this, they'll lack critical functionality. NFV at the edge of the network needs
assurance, openness and security - three vital ingredients and our FSP 150 ProVM
has them all. There can be no question that this technology will be an important
component of NFV-centric networks."
To ensure that service providers are able to fully leverage the potential of
NFV, the ADVA FSP 150 ProVM is a completely open solution. It includes
standardized interfaces based on OpenFlow, OpenStack and Netconf/YANG. The close
integration of control and management systems with the underlying hardware
creates strong synergies between physical and virtual network functions,
resulting in optimum performance. To mitigate the security risks of migrating to
open-source software and standard network components, the ADVA FSP 150 ProVM
includes ADVA ConnectGuard(TM). This technology provides a key mix of features
that ensure network security and data protection. These features include robust
encryption, tamper resistance and network isolation with access control lists.
What's more, the ADVA FSP 150 ProVM also includes the company's unique
Syncjack(TM) time distribution and assurance technology, a compelling feature
for virtualization in the radio access network.
"We've worked closely with a number of leading service providers to develop our
FSP 150 ProVM. This tight collaboration with fixed and mobile operators has
resulted in an essential solution - one that meets all specific functional and
operational network requirements," commented Stephan Rettenberger, VP,
marketing, ADVA Optical Networking. "Our team has crafted an edge NFV device
that is unlike anything on the market. It builds on our Etherjack(TM) technology
to create service demarcation for the virtualized world. And by combining this
directly with an internal server that hosts VNFs, you have a synergy of hardware
and software that delivers unparalleled results. This unique combination will
prove imperative for service providers as they rapidly respond to a wealth of
new business opportunities."
The capabilities of the ADVA FSP 150 ProVM will be displayed in a joint
demonstration with BT and Alchera Technologies at the SDN & OpenFlow World
Congress from October 12 until October 16.
