CHATSWORTH, California,
March 8, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- MRV
Communications™, Inc. (NASDAQ: MRVC) ("MRV®"), a global provider of
innovative packet and optical solutions for service providers, data
center operators and enterprises, announced an upgrade to its
Pro-Vision® service management and orchestration software platform.
The newly upgraded Pro-Vision software platform now includes a next
generation RESTCONF Northbound application program interface (API).
This new interface leverages standards-based Yang models, such as
those defined by the Open Networking Foundation's (ONF's) T-API
open standard, for seamless integration with high-order
orchestration platforms, thereby enabling full Lifecycle Service
Orchestration (LSO) for transport services.
Pro-Vision integrates with MRV's family of optical transport and
switching platforms, enabling service providers to design, manage,
diagnose, visualize and optimize their multilayer networks, while
substantially reducing operational expenses. With the addition of
its next generation RESTCONF Northbound API, Pro-Vision further
simplifies ease of use, service orchestration in SDN-enabled
networks, troubleshooting capabilities, and also supports new
optical and packet products and features.
"We are excited to introduce our latest update of Pro-Vision
which includes a next generation RESTCONF Northbound management
interface that allows for seamless integration of Pro-Vision with
emerging open and programmable SDN-enabled networks," commented
Adam Scheer, Chief Operating Officer
of MRV. "Our latest update further aligns Pro-Vision with our
commitment to deliver solutions designed to offer our customers
flexibility and choice as they build their next generation
networks. Pro-Vision is engineered to provide full LSO for
MRV-powered networks and, with this software release, also supports
seamless standards-based integration for service orchestration
platforms currently being rolled out more broadly in the market.
Finally, Pro-Vision now enables integration with other types of
platforms - such as OSS/BSS - as standards-based interfaces are
ratified."
"With the update to its Pro-Vision platform, MRV introduces a
heightened level of control and intuitiveness that is often hard to
come by in the world of LSO solutions," added Michael Howard, Senior Research Director for IHS
Markit. "The depth and ease-of-use, once again, marks MRV as an
industry innovator and further highlights the company's commitment
to providing service providers with scalable, integrated
offerings."
Pro-Vision can scale to meet the broad range of customer needs,
from regional operators to the largest global service providers.
Its rich and intuitive GUI automates provisioning and management
for thousands of network elements and brings a new level of
control, awareness, and troubleshooting capabilities to network
operators tasked with service provisioning, assurance, monitoring,
reporting, maintenance, and inventory management.
