With the advent of Software Defined Networking, Operations Teams are being challenged with increased flexibility in provisioning network services, but also additional complexity in managing these networks and network services end to end. Covered topics: • Evolving current network management strategies to address increased complexity from SDN/NFV • How to leverage existing network management investments and extend them to cover new management domains • Moving from operational silos to cross-services operations management in support of SDN/NFV (moving network management up the value chain) To learn more about how CA Services can accelerate your success in the application economy, please visit: https://www.slideshare.net/CAinc

Unraveling The New Stack

Orch. Service

How do I keep track of the
relationship between these layers
when it is constantly transforming
Where is a weak performance spot
in this stack and what do I monitor
to stay on top of it
How do I relate stack performance
to the health of the service chain
How is the overlay using these
resources? Are these CAPEX
resources optimized
How do I rebuild the stack when
each layer comes from different
systems
How is the performance of this
stack relate to the performance of
the older part of my network

SDN/NFV Use Cases
vCPE - Working with a North American CSP who is deploying a vCPE service for their Enterprise Business Services.
Key challenges involve how to integrate discovery workflow in a hybrid SNMP and NFV environment
SD Data Center - Working with a large Tech Enterprise to gain visibility into their deployed SDDC. Key challenges
involve providing visibility into self-serviced usage and production/non-production population
SDN Core - Working with a Mega North American CSP on providing performance monitoring of their SDN controlled
core networks with specific interest in understanding the systems performance and impact on infrastructure
SD WAN - Working with a North American customer in providing performance analytics on the application routing
aspect of SD WAN

Extending the Operational Model to SDN/NFV:
Addressing key pain points in rolling out a disruptive technology
Organization
•Integrating operations with lines of business
•Breaking down organizational siloes - network,
IT, business
•Enablement around new technologies – training
for teams
Process
•Risk reduction
•Change Management - automation & integration
•Service Management - clearly defining service
rollout process in partnership with the business
•Release Management
Tools
•Traditional OSS & Network Management very
siloed
•Industry focus so far has been on Service &
Domain Orchestration
•Need for vendor agnostic tools
Business Strategy
•Focus on enabling business to rollout new,
dynamic services to customers in a robust and
reliable manner
•Leverage SDN/NFV as part of DevOps adoption
and enablement
