Best Practices for On-boarding, Verification and Continuous Monitoring of VNFs (hosted by Vanilla Plus)

Open and orchestrated active testing that is combined with simulation is vital because it enables confirmation that the VNF service is working correctly. Once operational, ongoing monitoring is critical to ensure SLAs are maintained. This is more critical, as networks are no longer static but dynamic and constantly changing. This session will focus on sharing best practices for development, deployment, operation and management of the network.

SOC and the Path to Automated Service Lifecycle Management (hosted by LightReading)

Up until now, this system has been a set of manual process that is time consuming and costly. In addition, it is difficult to keep up with the constant changes in existing services and support the addition of new services such as SD-WAN. This problem will only get worse as the industry moves to virtualization. This webinar will explore how operators can mitigate the problems in the SOC as they move from a physical to hybrid and eventually a fully virtualized environment through automation of the critical functions. This session will cover everything from network and test configurations that assist in accelerating service delivery while eliminating human error, to deploying automated root cause analysis, to a fully closed loop automated environment that uses KPIs from the network to make meaningful changes improving service quality and improved subscriber satisfaction. Speakers James Crawshaw, Senior Analyst – OSS/BSS Transformation, Heavy Reading Anssi Tauriainen, Director - Service Assurance and Analytics Business Unit, EXFO
