NFV/SDN

Network Function Virtualization (NFV) introduces a new way to design, deploy, and manage network services. It delivers multiple benefits on both the business and the operational levels, enabling shorter time to market for new services, along with greater agility and flexibility. Yet, the transition to NFV comes with a set of new challenges for assuring high-quality services, especially in hybrid networks that combine physical and virtual components.

NFV-based networks require a new breed of service assurance that goes a step further – providing an end-to-end view of incredibly complex and dynamic environments. Service providers demand a service assurance solution that is more agile and equipped with advanced machine learning tools. These tools are necessary to provide valuable insights that support closed-loop automation, self-healing and zero-touch management.

Service providers can rely on Helix to ensure maximum service availability and quality of their enterprise SD-WAN services. By deploying Helix, service providers gain access to proactive service management, faster problem response and resolution processes, and improved service assurance automation and integration. It provides full closed-loop resolutions, and delivers added value for customers via a self-monitoring portal.
