HP Intros NFV System

E-mail Print PDF

HP launches a pre-integrated means to make network functions virtualisation (NFV) easier-- the HP NFV System, a system the company says allows communications service providers (CSPs) to accelerate NFV deployments.

HPThe NFV System is pre-integrated with Helion OpenStack Carrier Grade, an open source-based cloud platform supporting CSP reliability, scalability and performance requirements.

It consists of a Starter Kit (an all-in-one compute node kit), Compute Kit (server nodes running VNF workloads), Control Kit (Helion OpenStack Carrier Grade VIM and PIM software) and Storage Kit (provides additional capacity for storage intensive applications).

"Many telcos and suppliers have done NFV proof-of-concepts and are now ready to move to production. To do that, they need solutions that are open, carrier grade, and easy to deploy," the company says. "HP NFV System provides an integrated, pre-tested, deployment-ready NFV hardware and software platform to get customers up-and-running quickly and confidently."

HP also launches NFV Director 3.0-- a means with which CSPs can manage operations, analytics, network management and orchestration. Vertica big data software handles the analytics.

The NFV System will be available from Q3 2015.
