iconectiv Makes Key Contribution to ONAP Open Source to Help Accelerate Mobile Network Virtualization
Summary
iconectiv joined the ONAP initiative last year to help partner in solving the challenges of smoothly onboarding the VNFs that are crucial to the way 5G and other advanced software-defined networks will be managed and commissioned. As a result of focused and targeted development based on the ONAP specifications, iconectiv has delivered open source APIs for a new VNF information service. In turn, this helps to speed and simplify virtual network deployments, which save operator costs, accelerate revenue generation, improve customer satisfaction and deliver a faster return on investment.” ONAP’s members include more than 50 of the world’s largest service and technology providers within the mobile industry. Founded in 2000, The Linux Foundation today provides tools, training and events to scale any open source project, which together deliver an economic impact not achievable by any one company. In fact, more than 2B people count on our platforms each day to keep their networks, devices and applications connected.
