TCS Service Orchestration Solution
Telecom
Telco operators are facing tough competition from over-the-top (OTT) players, leading to revenue losses
attributed to protracted service deployment cycles and high costs of network operations. Timely and cost
effective service delivery is inhibited by configuration errors due to siloed and manual operations and
proprietary interfaces. Network Function Virtualization (NFV) promises to address challenges around service
agility and operational cost. Operators need to continue utilizing their existing equipment while preparing to
deploy NFV.
Tata Consultancy Services’ (TCS’) Service Orchestration Solution is an open-source, automated, meta-data
driven service orchestration framework for NFV. TCS’ solution encompasses the NFV orchestration and
lifecycle management. It is a scalable, agent-less, and modular framework that interoperates with existing
service orchestrators, enabling fully automated service provisioning. With this solution, telcos gain the
responsiveness and service agility to meet customer demands.
Overview
Telco operators are finding it difficult to keep pace with growing
customer demands, with their existing siloed and proprietary
network solutions. Moreover, with OTT competitors and app
developers enabling service with minimal deployment timelines,
telco operators need to improve service deployment cycles. An
open, standard compliant, meta-data driven service orchestration
solution is vital for competitive business performance.
TCS Service Orchestration Solution is a comprehensive framework
for NFV service orchestration, and offers seamless interoperability
with third party orchestrators. This framework leads to simplified
service design and deployment, and minimizes design effort by
enabling meta-data based orchestration and lifecycle management.
Benefits
By leveraging TCS’ modular service orchestration framework, telcos
can benefit from:
n
A reduced development lifecycle: TCS’ solution promotes faster
and automated NFV deployment and helps telcos achieve service
agility. The generic meta-data driven framework reduces the
development cycle time by 30 percent.
n
Automated orchestration: Our solution automates NFV service
provisioning, monitoring, and scaling, enabling shorter NFV
service provisioning cycles.
n
Compliance with standards: Our solution adheres to ETSI NFV
MANO specifications and ensures interoperability. The modular
architecture enables cloud-scale deployment of NFV services.
n
Flexibility: Open source components eliminate vendor lock-in
and foster innovation.
The TCS Advantage
By partnering with TCS, enterprises can gain from:
Consulting expertise: TCS’ Centers of Excellence (CoEs) and
laboratories focused on orchestration, software defined networking
(SDN), NFV, and cloud virtualization offer a rich repository of
information while developing enhanced solutions. TCS also builds
expertise by actively contributing to open-source communities like
OpenStack, OpenDaylight, OpenVSwitch, Open Platform for NFV
(OPNFV), and Open Network Operating System (ONOS). TCS has over
300 consultants and has successfully executed engagements with
global clients.
Alliances: An extensive partner eco-system helps TCS bring valuable
experience in telco cloud solutions. This not only helps us customize
the solution framework according to client needs, but also extend
end-to-end product engineering capability in SDN and NFV.
