Wind River Joins KDDI R&D Labs Proof-of-Concept for Advanced NFV and SDN Automated Operations

Business Wire
Wind River®, a global leader in delivering software for the
Internet of Things (IoT), has announced that it will participate in
a proof-of-concept (PoC) led by KDDI R&D Laboratories Inc. for
automated operation for Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) test
beds.
The PoC will utilize Wind River Titanium Server as its
foundation for demonstrating the deployment of virtual network
function. Titanium Server is a carrier grade NFV infrastructure
software solution that meets the stringent requirements of the
telecom industry.
During the latest PoC earlier this year, using virtualization
technologies, KDDI R&D Labs successfully demonstrated full
automation of the operational flow for not only mobile equipment
but also fixed-line facilities. For example, the demonstration
includes management control systems that can automatically and
immediately perform failure recovery for defects in software-based
functions or virtualized platforms.
“KDDI R&D Labs is working towards SDN and NFV advancements
to enable flexible response to service requirements, improve
operational quality and efficiencies, and promote initiatives that
will help realize the next generation of mobile infrastructure,”
said Dr. Eng. Itsuro Morita, Executive Director, Core Network
Division at KDDI R&D Labs. “We expect Wind River Titanium
Server will help to drive future PoC and standardization activities
to enable advanced operations for the SDN/NFV era.”
“Delivering virtualized services at carrier grade levels of
reliability and performance is essential as the industry is
transitioning to NFV infrastructures,” said Paul Senyshyn, vice
president and general manager of networking solutions at Wind
River. “Wind River Titanium Server provides a NFV infrastructure
that delivers the carrier grade reliability that meets strict
telecom requirements and enables service providers to more easily
and quickly find NFV success.”
By using Titanium Server as an NFV infrastructure software
foundation, the telecom industry enjoys the best of both worlds:
the rapid service deployment typically found in enterprise networks
as well as the carrier grade uptime and reliability mandated by
telecom networks. Based on technologies using open standards,
including carrier grade Wind River Linux, real-time Kernel-based
Virtual Machine (KVM), carrier grade plugins for OpenStack®, Data
Plane Development Kit (DPDK), and accelerated vSwitch technologies,
and optimized for Intel® architecture, Titanium Server brings
together high performance and carrier grade reliability.
Additionally, the Wind River Titanium Cloud partner program
provides an ecosystem of optimized, interoperable standard
solutions based on Titanium Server to accelerate time-to-market for
service providers and telecom equipment manufacturers (TEMs)
deploying NFV infrastructure.
