7. Why NFV?

8. Business case for NFV
Declining ARPU OTT Age Agile Service Deployment
Average revenue per
user (ARPU) is under
increasing pressure
due to competition
and high user
acquisition cost
Voice, video,
messaging and other
enriched services are
now offered by the
Over-the-top
Applications
Newer service

existing service
evolution is required
at much faster pace
and agility

13. Benefits of NFV
Service rollouts and provisioning is faster as it’s software centric as
opposed to hardware
Revenue
Growth
Agile delivery allows for resources to be scaled-in and out to match the
consumer demand in real-time
Improved QoE
Operational task such as infrastructure layout, network rollouts, appliance
provisioning are all obviated and replaced with automation framework.
This results in reduced OPEX overtime.
Reduced Opex
Hardware resources are tied to service needs as opposed to vendors. This
allows for better resource utilization.
Reduced Capex

• Functional decomposition allows for independent scaling and management of functional components as
compared to monolith architecture.Microservices Architecture
• Virtual Network Functions are pre-packaged with interface and protocol aggregators allowing VNF to
integrate and offer elasticity in brown field networks.Encapsulate Elasticity
• Mavenir VNFs uses open interfaces such as NETCONF and REST to provisioning and management of
functions – enabling easy interoperabilityHighly Interoperable
• Mavenir VNFs are designed for machine and data separation – enabling faster recovery, higher
availability and quicker migrationStateless Framework
• Mavenir CloudRange can be package with NFVI, MANO, Applications and Assurance toolsEnd-to-end Offering
• Mavenir being early adopter of Intel® DPDK has product suite offering near line-rate performance.High Performance Data plane

Deployment and Runtime platformDevOps Platform

19. Mavenir NFV Scaling Architecture
• Optimized for fastest Life Cycle Management and Fault Containment
• Allows true VNF migration, across servers and data centers.
• Allows split architecture for Media and Control components  SDN Ready
• Maximum OPEX savings
• Single VNFM for all Mavenir and Mavenir-partner VNF products
• One logical node with single address points:
• VNFM for Or-VNFM and Vi-VNFM
• CMS for OSS interfaces
• Loadbalancer for SIP, HTTP,
IMAP etc.
• Address aggregation for
Diameter, SS7, SMPP,
SMTP etc.
