New alliance provides unique forum for
collaboration and integration among leading solution providers with
the most open SD-Access solution in the industry
ADTRAN®, Inc., (NASDAQ:ADTN), a leading provider of
next-generation open networking solutions, today announced the
establishment of the ADTRAN Mosaic Open Network Alliance (Mosaic
Alliance). ADTRAN Mosaic, the most open and complete SD-Access
solution in the industry, serves as the foundation for this
program. Following on the success of its Mosaic SD-Access
platforms, ADTRAN is forming the Mosaic Alliance to foster the
widespread development and industry adoption of SDN and NFV
solutions based on open standards, while maximizing the utility
that such open collaborations can deliver.
The Mosaic Alliance brings together market participants
dedicated to delivering, demonstrating and testing open and proven
SDN and NFV solutions. Through the program, ADTRAN is providing
operators around the globe a single point of reference for
best-of-breed SD-Access and NFV solutions. As a one-stop shop of
uniquely vetted solutions, the Mosaic Alliance will save network
operators the time and resources required to assess and
substantiate vendors and offerings best suited for their open
network demands, while reducing introduction risks posed to the
operator’s business.
Mosaic Alliance members will have access to ADTRAN expertise and
to one another for information exchange as well as mutual
assistance for the development of new open SD-Access projects.
Members will have the opportunity to meet, share insights and gain
knowledge of the latest advancements impacting the industry. The
Mosaic Alliance offers two levels of engagement:
- Integration Members – this
community includes two sub-levels of members who integrate with or
work within the Mosaic framework.
- Technology Partners: focused on
delivering innovative programmable network functions whether open
software or open hardware based.
- Service Partners: that are delivering
managed services, system integration, and other network operation
requirements.
- Collaboration Members – provides
an entry point for joint innovation, collaboration, insight and
knowledge sharing.
“By establishing the Mosaic Open Network Alliance, ADTRAN is
promoting the acceleration of the industry’s transition to open,
programmable, scalable networks, and alliance members play a key
role in that transition,” said Chris Thompson, director of Mosaic
software and solutions portfolio for ADTRAN. “The caliber of
interoperability testing, integration and validation available to
vendors in the Mosaic environment presents unique value and creates
a single touch point for network operators to validate solution
interoperability as they look to rollout SD-Access networks around
the world.”
ADTRAN continues to be a leading proponent of fully open source,
multi-vendor networks and maintains affiliation with numerous open
networks organizations and projects including NIA, ODL, ONF, ONOS,
CORD and ON.LAB. The company is also an active member of many of
the industry’s leading standards bodies, such as the Broadband
Forum and CableLabs, and is helping to shape the future of
communications through open technologies. Through the Mosaic
Alliance, operators can create their tailored multi-vendor
SD-Access platforms, comfortable in the knowledge that they are
backed by the same ADTRAN quality mark that has served the industry
over the past three decades.
Initial members have already begun enrolling in the Mosaic
Alliance, and ADTRAN is reviewing a large slate of additional
prospective members. ADTRAN will be announcing partners to the
alliance over the coming months and continuously going forward.
