MODERNIZING THE OSS APPROACH FOR VIRTUAL INFRASTRUCTURE

February 24, 2016

Traditional Operational Support Systems (OSS) are a set of programs that help a communications service provider (CSP) monitor, control, analyze, and manage a network. OSS solutions are composed of disparate functional units for managing different parts of the network.With the advent of Network Function Virtualization (NFV) and Software Defined Networking (SDN), the complexity of management and operations, and associated Operational Expenditure (OPEX) of virtual networks is reduced. In a practical scenario, a network will be comprised of physical and virtual Network Elements (NEs), a.k.a “Hybrid Networks”. While complete migration to virtual infrastructure is a long term goal, service providers are looking for service monetization through agility and automation in end-to-endservice fulfillment, improved resource utilization (which reduces operational costs), and improved customer experience in hybrid networks.
