With the Blueprint for End-to-End Management, the team defines the essential requirements for effective management of physical and virtualized services end-to-end across multiple provider environments, specifically outlining how to make end-to-end management happen and what common practices, architectural and integration principles are needed to get there.
The key challenges being solved in this workstream include:
- How can I manage services end-to-end across multiple providers on a hybrid of physical and virtualized infrastructure?
- How can I extend my current end-to-end management architecture?
- How can ensure a security fabric is built in end-to-end?
To solve these challenges the team will deliver:
- End-to-end SLA management blueprint for service assurance in multi-administration & hybrid network operations.
- An introductory guide on Dynamic Control Architecture for managing virtualization.
- Security Fabric recommendations: Forcing the issues of security.
- The following 6 Catalyst projects:
- Maximizing Profitability with NFV Orchestration
- Recover First, Resolve Next: Closed-Loop Control for Managing Hybrid Networks
- Multi-Cloud SDN-NFV Service Orchestration
- Big Data driven OSS
- Security Functions in NFV
