|
1. Future NFV modeling directions Deng Hui | Chief NFV Strategy Officer | Huawei Standard Coordinator and Chair, Modeling subcommittee | ONAP |
|

|
| |
|
3. Managing "light out" NFV infrastructure and network service environments – viability, challenges and requirements Alexander Vul | Principal Cloud Architect | Intel |
|
| |
|
One potential outcome of going "zero-touch" is that very few or no people at all may be involved during day-to-day operation of NFV infrastructure and services. Is this really possible? What would be the challenges? What kind of requirements what we have to expose for the industry as a whole, in order to make "lights out" zero-touch environments a reality? These are the questions that we will attempt to answer in the next hour... |

Since cloud environments rely heavily on virtualization and automation to bring together an expedient service delivery model for short and long term solutions, automating security mitigation is vital to the existence of the infrastructure and business.
Increasing the overall effectiveness and efficiency through detecting bad actors and mitigating the threat before the cyber operation even gets off the ground is accomplished and demonstrated within our innovation lab. |

PANEL DEBATE – Service Cloudification |
|
| |
|
"Cloudification of the Network" receives much air time and attention in the media.
This panel will discuss the practical application of new Cloud-native architectures and microservices to carrier networks. How should cloud-native VNFs be designed, tested, optimised, etc. – how is their lifecycle managed? To what extent is full Cloud-native deployment possible, how is NFV being leveraged, and how will the network evolve over the next 5 years? |

|
Designing a complex network is not trivial. A digital transformation strategy to drive superior customer experience and enabling End-to-End Network Service Automation for Enterprise customers is a challenging task to achieve.
Verizon Service Designer – A visual Intuitive design tool (Computer Aided Design), is how Verizon is addressing the above challenges. Our design and approach has simplified and streamlined Solution Architects to create reusable designs andhiding BSS/OSS complexities and the underpinning networks. This tool has helped Verizon Enterprise to harmonize designs across our Legacy and Next Gen Networks-SDN/NFV and bring solutions to the market place very quickly. |

|
A key goal for NFV is to enable network cost reduction and increase operating efficiency.
This panel will discuss the lessons that can be drawn after 5 years of innovation, development and deployment. Where have been the key shifts in capex and opex? Has the potential for cost reduction been overtaken by other aspects? How can the benefits be leveraged into the future? |

5G: The Technological Landscape, Progress and Challenges Ashiq Khan | Assistant Manager | NTT DOCOMO |
|
| |
|
Many operators around the world have already published their 5G roll out plan. DOCOMO also plans to roll out 5G in 2020 and its well on course.
Different 5G Radio Access Technologies are already in large scale trial phase, and a suitable mobile core network is under active investigation. The next mobile core network will be more service oriented and in this regard, the industry as well as DOCOMO, is focusing on network slicing. Network slicing can be considered as an evolution of NFV. A network slice can be a virtualized network, optimized for a particular service.
This presentation will introduce component technologies for 5G, shed light on progresses made in standardization and around the industry, and discuss technical challenges need to be addressed in the 5G era. |

This talk introduces the concept of application-centric 5G services, by explicitly making reference to some use-cases, and it explains how an advanced platform combining cloud/fog and SDN network orchestration can cater to multiple requirements. The talk will finally introduce some practical scenarios in which multi-layer network orchestration and placement of containerised virtual network functions have been proposed and demonstrated to provide advanced security services. |
