PLUMgrid to Showcase Service Function Chaining for vCPE With Ubuntu OpenStack at Mobile World Congress 2016
PLUMgrid Open Networking Suite Accelerates Time to Revenue; Reduces Capex and Opex With NFV-Enabled Service Delivery
(firmenpresse) - SANTA CLARA, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 02/17/16 -- , a leader of secure and scalable SDN and NFV solutions for OpenStack® clouds, will showcase the company's Open Networking Suite (ONS) on Ubuntu® OpenStack Cloud at next week's Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain. More than one half of the world's OpenStack deployments are now built on Ubuntu, and PLUMgrid's ONS is recognized as the most integrated SDN solution in the industry. This partnership gives service providers a combined, production-ready SDN solution for deploying virtual Customer Premise Equipment (vCPE) through full-service, multi-tenant cloud data centers.
vCPE solutions often require virtual network functions (VNFs) such as NAT, DHCP, DNS, WAN optimization, DPI, firewall, etc. Service Function Chaining (SFC) enables operators to define sequencing of VNFs to provide a full service chain to process packets as needed. PLUMgrid and Canonical will demonstrate a vCPE solution with service function chaining leveraging Ubuntu® OpenStack Cloud and Snappy Ubuntu Core running in the vCPE.
Snappy Ubuntu Core is a new rendition of Ubuntu with transactional updates and a minimal server image. Applications that run in Snappy are provided through a simpler mechanism with a faster and more reliable deployment model. By using Snappy Ubuntu Core in the vCPE, operators can deploy virtual network functions as applications and gain the speed, reliability, and lightweight footprint provided by Snappy.
"Ubuntu OpenStack and Snappy Ubuntu Core provide an unmatched platform for vCPE that is lightweight, fast, and reliable," said John Zannos vice president of Cloud Alliances and Business Development at Canonical. "With PLUMgrid providing the SDN layer, we have a comprehensive solution that is simple to provision and allows operators to add network services to vCPEs on demand."
Service providers deploying OpenStack clouds need secure and scalable SDN and NFV solutions for wireline and wireless services. At Mobile World Congress 2016, attendees will learn how the PLUMgrid ONS helps service providers provision and automate their network services on-demand to expedite their cloud-based offerings, thereby accelerating time to revenue and reducing Capex and Opex with NFV enabled delivery.
PLUMgrid will demonstrate the ease of deploying highly secure SDNs leveraging the company's Virtual Domains, an innovative and secure approach to micro-segmentation. PLUMgrid will also demonstrate virtual CPE with multiple service function chaining of virtual network functions such as routing, switching, NAT, DHCP, and DNS.
Monday, February 22, to Thursday, February 25, 2016.
PLUMgrid will showcase its virtual networking demos in the Canonical booth: Hall 3 - 3J30.
