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.

Skyport Systems

At Skyport Systems we develop Hyper-Secured Infrastructure that ensures the security of critical IT and corporate assets, with tight integration of compute, security, virtualization and policy management. We believe that computing infrastructure should be secured-by-default, starting with a secure supply-chain, validating the hardware and software integrity continuously, add an additional policy enforcement point as close to the workload as possible, and continuously monitor and audit every transaction, connection, and administrative action with a secure data warehouse.
