Edge Device Combines Physical and Virtual Network Functions for Superior
Performance
Munich, Germany. March 17, 2017. ADVA Optical Networking announced today that
the European Advanced Networking Test Center (EANTC) has validated the unique
capabilities of its FSP 150 ProVMe. The EANTC tests found that the edge NFV
device succeeded in minimizing additional latency and that its hardware-assisted
support functions, such as synchronization and service assurance, can be
activated without requiring compute resources. This removes negative impact on
revenue-generating VNFs and enhances performance. The ADVA FSP 150 ProVMe
achieves this through a combination of physical network functions and the latest
Intel Xeon-D processor. Conducted by an objective and highly experienced EANTC
team, the evaluation showed the independence from traffic load of specific
network functions and confirmed the ease of operation through the use of open-
source VNF lifecycle management.
"Our evaluation confirms that ADVA Optical Networking has constructed an
advanced edge-based virtualization solution with value-added hardware features.
The company has succeeded in combining its vast experience in manufacturing
classic Ethernet-based customer premises equipment with a solid NFV
infrastructure based on the compact Xeon-D architecture," said Carsten
Rossenhövel, managing director, EANTC. "We rigourously tested the ADVA FSP 150
ProVMe's performance and functionality with specific focus on essential
capabilities. We evaluated the solution's VNF lifecycle management process and
verified its ability to openly integrate into typical NFV infrastructure.
Additionally, we confirmed that efficiency is improved by hardware-based support
functions, which do not consume compute resources."
ADVA Optical Networking's multi-technology solution combines physical network
functions for low-latency forwarding and precise timing with a comprehensive set
of assurance functions. A plug-in to OpenStack Neutron assures automated
connectivity management with open-source NFVI management solutions. It also
utilizes SR-IOV, a software acceleration technology that reduces latency and
minimizes server resource consumption. The evaluation, which was conducted by
EANTC, the internationally recognized independent test center, verified those
advantages when compared with Open vSwitch. The results provide guidance to CSPs
as they introduce NFV at the edge of their networks and look to balance
performance, cost and operational complexity.
"When it comes to edge NFV innovation, we're leading the way. No other vendor
can deliver these advantages. To prove to customers that our FSP 150 ProVMe
delivers on its promises, there's no better way than to subject it to rigorous
trials by expert independent testers," commented Ulrich Kohn, director,
technical marketing, ADVA Optical Networking. "High-value services demand high-
performance solutions at the network edge. The results of EANTC's objective and
comprehensive evaluation clearly demonstrate the major benefits of our
technology. Our unique combination of virtual and physical network functions
enables CSPs to offer a wide range of demanding applications far more
efficiently. It means our customers can concentrate on service definition rather
than worry about performance bottlenecks."
