Senior Analyst, Heavy Reading

"Service providers are being pushed to accelerate the delivery of
Ethernet services to meet rising customer expectations. To turn
services up faster and manage them efficiently through their
lifecycle, service providers need a coherent, end-to-end view of
network topology, the ability to programmatically configure the
network and high levels of automation," commented Caroline Chappell,
Senior Analyst, Heavy Reading. "New service orchestration software
solutions like CENX provide the critical layer of network abstraction
and automation that address these requirements, leveraging existing
network data sources in a non-disruptive way and making the network
more 'software-defined' and agile."
