www.radisys.com RADISYS SOLUTION BRIEF | Radisys Software Defined Broadband Access Services Radisys Helps CSPs Solve Many Cloud Integration Challenges There are multiple architectures and industry standards that aim to define a blue print of technologies that enable CSPs to leverage open source and open compute platforms for broadband access. Though new functional paradigms such as SDN, NFV, Cloud computing, and reference architectures such as R-CORD (Residential Central Office Redesigned as Datacenter) are becoming the building blocks to modernizing the next generation cloud datacenters; they also introduce many new challenges for CSPs such as: Technology Selection: SDN, NFV, Telco grade cloud computing, cloud infrastructures, SD-WAN, Orchestration and open reference architectures are in different phases of maturity, requiring carriers to undergo transformation in several stages. Legacy Coexistence: Equipment and software vendors are progressing at a varying pace in their virtualization strategy, making it imperative for new virtualized and traditional physical appliances to co- exist and integrate with both legacy OSS/BSS and new E2E Orchestrators. Culture Transformation: To achieve service agility with open source software, operators must co-create solutions with vendors and adopt new DevOps methodologies in lieu of traditional waterfall methods. This requires a fundamental cultural shift in how network operations and development teams interact and operate. Path to Commercialization: To drive faster time to market and service scalability, any new and existing services must transition from monolithic software applications to modular Virtual Network Functions (VNFs) that can function on a wide variety of cloud infrastructures using hypervisors or container technologies.
