See how open vCPE can be achieved in the real world and in action, while integrating other VNFs into the service chain, while easily instantiating and managing on any cloud, leveraging open orchestration design concepts. More and more vendors are looking to not only easily onboard their VNFs to the cloud, but also build a stack that is versatile and not locked into one cloud provider or vendor. Join this webinar and learn how Datavision and Cloudify are helping deliver this end-to-end solution across the globe

8. Datavision’s Mission: Simplify Consumption….
...And enable our clients to realize the CapEx and OpEx savings from automation
● Simplify realization of software driven networks through the introduction of
software-defined abstraction
How?
● Through a standards- and models-based approach
● MEF, TMF standards
● API-centric approach - MEFLSO model for interconnection among BSS/OSS
components and integration points
● Modeling: TOSCA,YANG
● Service Abstractions/Blueprints

9. Datavision’s Mission: Simplify Consumption….
● Through a Models- and standards-based approach, specific services are
blueprinted and ”abstracted” away from the actual physical network
elements.
● Additionally, this approach helps facilitate the instantiation of Virtual
Network Functions (VNF’s) that can be onboarded to x86 platforms on a
client-by-client basis, forming a completely customized service chain – in
minutes versus weeks. With fewer errors
● End-clients can select from a vetted, tested catalog of VNF’s to be
onboarded to their “universal” CPE devices and operators can reduce
time to revenue with the velocity in which this takes place.

10. Intent-Based Networking - How it Works
Automating the deployment, configuration and remediation of application and network services
● Intent based (Focus on What not How)
● Model/Service Driven Multi Cloud
● Model/Service Driven Automation
● Model/Service Driven Governance
● Model/Service Driven Networking
● Federated Model
● Open Source , Standard
● Automation / Orchestration First

move from snowflakes to
being more like Legos. We
don’t need those VNFs to
look like snowflakes.”

20. Intent-Based Orchestration with TOSCA

21. Benefits of TOSCA based security orchestration
● converts VNF from technology to service
● facilitates complex service modeling
● introduces reusable components
● enables services chaining

22. Sample VNF Solution
1. TOSCA-based FortiGate VNFD
2. Fortigate VNFD imported to Cloudify Manager
3. Cloudify Manager instatiates VNFS on OpenStack
4. FortiGate VNF is up with baseline configuration
5. FortiGate accessed with UI for management
