Companies to Demonstrate Jointly Developed
NFV-based Solution Enabling Service Providers to Rapidly Deliver a
Range of Enterprise Services
MOBILE WORLD CONGRESS – Juniper Networks (NYSE:JNPR), the
leader in network innovation, and Amdocs, the leading provider of
customer experience solutions, will showcase an automated
virtualized customer premises equipment (vCPE) solution to meet
enterprise customer demands for new, user-defined services here at
Mobile World Congress. The jointly developed offering will be
demonstrated at Amdocs’ booth (Hall 3, Booth 3G10).
Available today, the vCPE solution, which leverages Juniper
Networks® vMX router and vSRX firewall to deliver full-featured
capabilities and industry-leading performance as a virtual
function, enables service providers to quickly introduce a broad
set of services for their enterprise customers using virtual CPE.
In addition, the joint offering also utilizes Juniper Networks
Contrail™ Networking, an open SDN solution for cloud and network
functions virtualization (NFV).
The Amdocs Network Cloud Service Orchestrator allows
provisioning and rapid fulfillment of both virtual and physical
network functions services. As part of the joint offering, Juniper
and Amdocs are also providing a user portal for self-service
selection, a service catalog and service creation capability, and a
wide range of delivery and managed services options to help service
providers transition to an IT cloud operating model.
“Service providers recognize the business value of
software-powered service chaining as they seek to make their
networks more dynamic and better able to adapt to rapid change,”
said Gabriel Brown, senior analyst at Heavy Reading. “Virtual
CPE is one of the primary use-cases for NFV and there is clear
evidence that service providers will invest in the technology if
they have the software solutions they need to achieve true service
agility.”
“Together Amdocs and Juniper Networks are delivering an
end-to-end virtualized service offering that enables service
providers to achieve the unprecedented agility of cloud providers
and accelerate the provisioning of a wide range of virtual
enterprise services, without sacrificing the performance and
scalability of their network,” said Mike Marcellin, senior vice
president of marketing and strategy at Juniper Networks. “By
integrating Juniper’s virtual routing and security platforms
through open interfaces and leveraging the powerful service
chaining that Contrail brings, Amdocs is able to seamlessly
integrate physical and virtualized network functions into a
platform for service delivery.”
“Service providers around the world are embracing network
virtualization to lower costs as well as to develop an agile
platform to create new revenue opportunities,” said Rebecca
Prudhomme, vice president of product and solutions marketing at
Amdocs. “This vCPE solution from Juniper and Amdocs provides a
logical starting point for service providers on their journey to a
virtualized environment – enabling programmable service chains that
bring together the physical and virtual networks. It leverages the
strengths of both companies and delivers an end-to-end, extensible
automated solution that can be deployed right now. Amdocs’ heritage
of service management and orchestration gives us a unique
understanding of the communications market.”
