SFR (Altice) Evolves Its Networking Strategy with Cisco Network Automation
27 Feb, 2018
BARCELONA, Mobile World Congress, February 27, 2018 — Remaining competitive in today’s increasingly connected, mobile, digital and video-centric environment requires a network that is more agile and responsive than ever before. For service providers looking to support network speed and deliver high-quality services faster and more easily, deploying network and services automation solutions is crucial to managing secure, seamless operations and to preparing networks for 5G. SFR, a subsidiary of the Altice Group, is deploying Cisco® Network Services Orchestrator (NSO) to tremendously enhance the automation, agility and reliability of its network, while accelerating network services change management from months to minutes with automated on-demand services provisioning. With Cisco NSO, SFR is able to simplify the entire lifecycle management for its services, automating core functions across physical and virtualized networks for both existing and new customers. This enables faster innovation and increases customer satisfaction by speeding time-to-market for new managed services like SD-WAN, and Application-driven, on demand services. A key technology enabler for software-defined and intent-based networking, Cisco NSO will enable SFR to reap several benefits including:
- Transform their networks and services towards programmability, by empowering SFR teams to manage their network services more efficiently
- Assured quality of service for critical applications, driven with agility, flexibility and simplicity of management at its core
- Faster delivery of revenue-generating services and shorter activation times from months to minutes
- Automated service lifecycle and reduction of manual configuration steps by up to 90 percent
- Model-driven automation, to abstract the services from the underlying devices, in a standardized way
- Transparent orchestration spanning multiple domains in the network to include NFV and SDN through use of an open, modern programmable platform
- Reduce failed service activations and network issues by removing risk of human error
