Message Boards brooks7, 5/22/2018 5:47:09 PM NFV Is Down but Not Out Re: Re: SaaS = good partner model I want to go back to how this succeeded in IT. The IT companies ignored products from vendors and built their own. What the telcos want is people to pour Billions of $$ into R&D and pay nothing for it. If they... Kevin Mitchell, 5/22/2018 4:43:08 PM NFV Is Down but Not Out Re: SaaS = good partner model Success-based SaaS model or XaaS model aligns better with being a partner to a CSP. Traditional infrastructure vendors have revenue to protect. How motivated can they be to be disruptive and transformative when it comes... James_B_Crawshaw, 5/22/2018 4:06:13 PM NFV Is Down but Not Out Re: Re: Is SDN dead? Right. With OpenFlow Pacnet/Telstra managed 500 flows per switch. With their own protocol they can reach 4 million according to Jim Fagan. iainmorris, 5/22/2018 12:17:30 PM NFV Is Down but Not Out Re: Re: Telus more It could be seen that way, I guess. Certainly not surprising the vendors want to protect their profit margins, as you say. mendyk, 5/22/2018 12:09:13 PM NFV Is Down but Not Out Re: Re: Telus more The CTO is surprised that vendors would put their revenue/profit targets ahead of their customers' cost-reduction targets (over which the vendors have no say). Seems a bit naive, no? iainmorris, 5/22/2018 11:59:45 AM NFV Is Down but Not Out Re: Re: Telus more They are making savings, but not as much as the CTO is targeting. Kevin Mitchell, 5/22/2018 11:46:46 AM NFV Is Down but Not Out Re: Cloud Source Virtualization NFV continues to confound for broad infrastructure replacement initiatives. A 2016 Heavy Reading survey (sponsored by Alianza) showed that XaaS is also a way forward for CSPs to "augment or replace" network infrastructure.... mendyk, 5/22/2018 11:28:26 AM NFV Is Down but Not Out Re: Telus more So Telus's costs are going up because of NFV deployment even as hardware prices drop precipitously. The CTO is blaming suppliers. But isn't the CTO the responsible party here? Sterling Perrin, 5/22/2018 11:20:35 AM NFV Is Down but Not Out Re: Re: Is SDN dead? OpenFlow simply did not scale for a carrier network. PacNet was one of the first to deploy SDN in the WAN, and they based it on OpenFlow at the time. (They got bought by Telstra). At BCE, Telstra's Jim Fagan (one of the... iainmorris, 5/22/2018 11:12:47 AM NFV Is Down but Not Out Re: Re: Is SDN dead? Thanks, Sterling. I think I recall the survey but will check it out again. I think one of the issues at Nice was regarding OpenFlow, and more generally about the lack of standards in this area. Sterling Perrin, 5/22/2018 11:09:15 AM NFV Is Down but Not Out Re: Re: Is SDN dead? In a 2017 Heavy Reading survey, 1/3rd of network operators surveyed (globally) reported that they are in some phase of commercial SDN deployment today - so SDN is not dead. Some still equate SDN with OpenFlow only, and... iainmorris, 5/22/2018 6:52:10 AM NFV Is Down but Not Out Re: Is SDN dead? NFV might have failed to live up to expectations so far. But is SDN dead?

InfoSec is really interesting, but is probably a bit boring too (see, needs rebranding). Joe Stanganelli, 4/28/2018 12:05:27 PM Robot Wars: Telecom's Looming AI Tussle Re: Re: Cyborg comparison @Michelle: This is also why organizations have more trouble finding cybersecurity talent than plain ol' developers. InfoSec work is often seen as boring, compared to working on features. Michelle, 4/15/2018 7:40:13 PM Robot Wars: Telecom's Looming AI Tussle Re: Re: Cyborg comparison Indeed. Telecom is less exciting than cars that can drive themselves. Maybe a re-branding initiative is needed to help frame the neat things that can be done in telecom in order to attract talent. kq4ym, 4/15/2018 4:23:25 PM Why Now Is the Best Time to Join WiC in Austin Re: Re: Very Worthwhile Event!

Sigma Systems' Guide to Transformation

A CSP's digital transformation involves so much more than technology. Crucial – and often most challenging – is the cultural transformation that goes along with it. As Sigma's Chief Technology Officer, Catherine Michel has extensive experience with technology as she leads the company's entire product portfolio and strategy. But she's also no stranger to merging technology and culture, having taken a company — Tribold — from inception to acquisition (by Sigma in 2013), and she continues to advise service providers on how to drive their own transformations. This impressive female leader and vocal advocate for other women in the industry will join Women in Comms for a live radio show to discuss all things digital transformation, including the cultural transformation that goes along with it.
