Webinar: New Dynamic Network Services Powered by CE 2.0, LSO, SDN and NFV
The Carrier Ethernet market is evolving from static connectivity services toward dynamic network services that provide an on-demand, assured, and secure experience with user-directed control over network resources and cloud connectivity. To assess the impact of this transition, the MEF recently worked with Vertical Systems Group on a new study, Dynamic ‘Third Network’ Connectivity Services Enabled by LSO, SDN and NFV, that involved a global survey of service providers, technology vendors, and other industry professionals.
This webinar replay covers key findings from the survey and also includes additional insight gained from real-world service provider experiences in offering dynamic network services.
- How and when revenue-generating dynamic services will impact the market
- The drivers, benefits, and challenges of deploying dynamic services
- Available & planned dynamic capabilities that customers can control on their own networks
- The role that LSO, SDN and NFV will play alongside CE 2.0 in driving the market forward.
Speakers:
> Stan Hubbard, Director of Communications and Research, MEF (Moderator)
> Rosemary Cochran, Principal, Vertical Systems Group
