THE GOAL:
REVOLUTIONIZING
TELECOM SERVICES

EXAMPLE – DYNAMIC VPNs
Add and remove VPNs between
endpoints as needed
Allocate bandwidth as needed

4. ECI Proprietary 4
EXAMPLE – MODERNIZED BUSINESS SERVICES
Customize end-point
capabilities based on
business needs Universal threat mgmt
Edge router
Firewall
Session border control
… and more
WAN optimization
Caching
LAN monitoring
SD-WAN

5. ECI Proprietary 5
EXAMPLE – REMOTE OPERATING ROOM
Scheduled connectivity with guaranteed SLA for:
 High bandwidth  Always-on  Fixed latency
1000s km

6. ECI Proprietary 6
EXAMPLE – INTELLIGENT EDGE SERVICES
10s ms

IS CLOUD NATIVE THE RECIPE FOR SUCCESS?
Infrastructure (IaaS)
• Compute
• Storage
• Networking
Platform (PaaS)
• Runtime
• Middleware
• Operating System
Software (SaaS)
• Applications
• Data
Application
Microservice
Container
 Used to great advantage by OTTs
for agile services and streamlined
operations and infrastructure
 Can service providers copy?
YES and NO

10. ECI Proprietary 10
WHY YES?
 For pure applications
development, SPs can use
many cloud native tools
 Microservices
 Containers
 Off-the-shelf PaaS SW for a
data center environment
 Creates DevOps benefits

11. ECI Proprietary 11
WHY NO
Because the SP environment is fundamentally different
 Services combining connectivity and virtualization
 Multilayer optimization
 Services with end-points in different SP domains
 Highly distributed network with intelligence to network edge
 Carrier-grade availability (99.999% for many services)

ENHANCEMENTS
FOR CARRIER
GRADE PaaS
 Scalable – from a smart network
edge to a SP data center
 Robust – for high application
availability/survivability
 Secure – for access control and
licensing
 Workhorse – able to handle
large amounts of network data MEC
