Sonus Networks, Inc. (Nasdaq: SONS), a global leader in securing
Cloud and real-time communications, announced today that it is
demonstrating how interoperable, virtualized solutions can increase
the speed of deployment of real-time communications in the Cloud.
This demonstration, taking place at Mobile World Congress, is based

provides global service providers with a best-of-breed solution
that supports carrier-grade real-time communications in the
Cloud.
Located at the HPE Partner Showcase booth 3E11, the
demonstration is comprised of the HPE NFV Director for management
and orchestration (MANO), Sonus SBC SWe and EMS SWe as virtual
network functions (VNFs), and NFV infrastructure (NFVI) from Wind
River.
During the demonstration, the HPE NFV Director seamlessly
orchestrates the instantiation, scaling and termination of virtual
instances of the Sonus SBC SWe. The joint solution showcases
elasticity, with automatic scaling and load-balancing. This
delivers a proven, carrier-grade architecture that is reliable and
flexible, dependent on network traffic needs.
