OPEN SOURCE, OPENSTACK AND NFV: HOW IS THE ‘OPEN TELCO’ PROJECT PROGRESSING? Sponsored by Intel and VMware
The objective of this opinion survey was to unlock some insights into telecoms professionals’ attitudes and experiences around OpenStack, Open Source software and Network Functions Virtualisation (NFV). These three software projects are arguably the key observable pieces in Telcos’ movement to what we might call the ‘Open Telco’. Notice also that we successfully avoided use of the word ‘transformation’ because of that concept’s abstract nature. Asking about specific projects of which our viewers and readers have direct experience, is a better and more instructive route to take.
We also asked questions about Open Source in relation to 5G.
As with all TelecomTV surveys our goal wasn’t to surface hard data about the prospects for these technologies in terms of market sizes or their pace of introduction. That sort of information is the province of market researchers and analysts using very different techniques. Our surveys explore subjective attitudes and expectations amongst our readers and viewers on specific issues. Effectively, we’re asking individuals, whose opinions are their own, what they think is ‘really’ going on under the corporate hood. We hope the result is a useful snapshot of industry sentiment. For instance, one of the long-running controversies in telecoms in recent years has concerned the pace of the NFV framework and standards-setting. Some observers maintain it’s been too slow, others that it was too broad in its approach, others that, like the bears’ porridge, it’s been about right.
Standards always take too long to formulate, especially according to those who were not involved in the process. But with the development of NFV we saw the controversial introduction of open source into the telecoms sphere.
So is Open Source the savior of NFV or the villain behind its alleged slow-down? And how do attitudes toward Open Source software now stand within the telecoms industry?
OpenStack is being hailed as the settled choice for the telco cloud. What are its drawbacks and advantages? What is liked and not liked?
5G is also naturally important here since shifting its data about in a differentiated way looks like being one of the main tasks for the new, open and agile network.
Notes: · Instead of repeating the definitive but unwieldy ‘Network Operators / Service Providers’, we’ll call the category
‘Telcos’ in the text.
· We make important comparisons between the full survey results and just the Telcos. So for brevity we call them ‘Telcos’ and ‘Full Survey’ and we put them in italics.
· We’ll round up or down the percentages to the nearest integer.
· Where we refer to a prescribed answer to one of our questions, we will Italicize it. e.g. In Question 2, OpenStack might be used Now or Not at all.
Our survey respondents:
· Nearly half of our respondents are Network Operators / Service Providers.
· System Integrators and Ecosystem OEM/ Vendors together comprised about a third.
· 7% were VNF providers and our small number of ‘others’ were Analysts, Researchers, and Software Vendors.

SECTION 1: WHAT DO WE ALL THINK OF OPENSTACK?
ARE YOU USING OPENSTACK IN PRODUCTION TODAY OR IN THE NEAR FUTURE?
HEALTH WARNING: It must be borne in mind that as this was actively promoted as an OpenStack survey, and since the respondents were self-selecting we can assume that OpenStack users were likely to be in the vast majority.
Just over half of our respondents declared their companies current users of OpenStack with the Telcos alone returning almost exactly the same proportion, so in this case there was no divergence between the Full Survey and Telcos specifically. However the proportion of Telcos ‘not at all’ using OpenStack was just 9% while for the Full Survey it was 15%. This makes sense: some Full Survey respondents might count themselves competitors to OpenStack or in the case of analysts, for example, would find the question not applicable.
IF NOW OR IN THE NEAR FUTURE, PLEASE TELL US BRIEFLY HOW YOU ARE ALREADY USING (OR SOON INTENDING TO USE) OPENSTACK
There’s a full list of answers to this question in our Appendix A. As you would expect the answers here were diverse. What we assume were integrators and/or vendors were naturally able to sum up the usage they were seeing with their customers. Many Telcos are apparently using different ‘flavors’ of OpenStack (Ericsson, Red Hat, Huawei etc.) for different environments (e.g. one in the lab and one in the cloud).
Mentions include: OpenStack being viewed as the de facto standard for the Telco cloud; on virtual IMS and virtual EPC platforms; IoT edge; as well as it being applied in support of all functions, often expressed as NFVI (network functions virtualized infrastructure).
PLEASE TELL US BRIEFLY WHICH VNFS YOU ARE USING OR INTEND TO USE
The favourites here appear to be virtual IMS (vIMS); virtual EPC (vEPC); virtual CPE (vCPE); virtual Domain Name Server (vDNS); SD-WAN and VPNs. Again, a full list is at the end of this report as Appendix B.
ARE THE VNFS YOU ARE USING PART OF A MULTI-VENDOR DEPLOYMENT?
Multi-vendor deployments were the overwhelming choice across the board. Telcos gave it a 75% yes, 25% no, while the Full Survey went even further, returning close to an 80/20 ratio.

DO YOU CONTRIBUTE CODE TO OPENSTACK?
Code contribution to OpenStack hovered around nearly 40% for the Full Survey, just 25% for Telcos. This divergence is probably to be expected. Vendors are, for obvious reasons, anxious to participate in open source projects such as OpenStack as the open source approach becomes accepted by their customers. But that only a quarter of Telcos claim to be contributing is not a surprise given the commitment required and the ‘relative’ newness of open source and OpenStack in the networking environment.
On the other hand, open source proponents in the industry stress the necessity for Telcos to get involved and contribute code if they want to make a success of their technological transformation. Being passive technology recipients, it’s implied, is a recipe for a half-hearted transformation, while participating in writing and contributing code, tends to get the whole team signed up to the chosen technological course and more committed to making the technical transformation a success.
On that basis the 75% non-participation rate for Telcos might be seen as something that needs to be improved and probably will be improved as time goes on. But it may also be a sign that smaller or more focused Telcos naturally find it more difficult to contribute specialist staff to open source group activity.
WHAT FRUSTRATES YOU MOST ABOUT OPENSTACK?
The inability to version control was named top OpenStack frustration to a far higher degree amongst the ‘non Telco’ participants in the survey, resulting in a score of 42% for the Full Survey. Telcos however, scored Inability to version control at 39% while 39% also selected inability to patch as top bugbear. The inability to capacity plan was nominated by just 26% across the board.
PLEASE EXPLAIN BRIEFLY WHAT YOU LIKE ABOUT OPENSTACK?
The full list of comments on OpenStack can be found below in Appendix 3. The general sense is that OpenStack has can be thought of as a de facto standard open source player with real momentum. It’s experienced very little fragmentation and is considered more stable than its peers. One contributor says it provides a common platform for all the Tier 1 Telcos to collaborate around; another that OpenStack participation provides the sense of belonging to a global community. To quote one respondent, “It’s open, it lets me avoid proprietary vendor lock-in and gives me freedom to negotiate on VNF without having a gun held to my head.”

SECTION 2: WHAT DO WE ALL THINK OF OPEN SOURCE?
HOW IMPORTANT DO YOU THINK OPEN SOURCE IS OR WILL BECOME TO THE TELECOMS SECTOR? WHICH STATEMENT IS CLOSEST TO YOUR OPINION?
The difference between Telcos and the rest really becomes apparent with this question. While just over a third of Telcos (34%) are enthusiastic enough to mark open source as absolutely crucial; the industry overall is more restrained with the greater number (32%) saying it will play a substantial part.
WHICH STATEMENT IS CLOSEST TO YOUR OPINION - THE INCREASING FOCUS ON OPEN SOURCE IN TELECOMS HAS BEEN BAD, MIXED OR GOOD?
Both Telcos and Full Survey think Open Source has been far more a savior for NFV than an impediment. However Telcos proved more likely than the rest to find its influence mixed.

HOW WELL DO YOU THINK THE OPEN SOURCE COMMUNITY UNDERSTANDS THE NEEDS OF TELECOMS?
A fairly even spread of opinion for Question 10 with most of the Full Survey taking a ‘middle’ position with understands it somewhat, although Telcos liked the ‘understands it somewhat’ more than the Full Survey did.
WHAT DO YOU THINK ARE THE MAIN MOTIVATORS FOR TELCOS TO EMBRACE OPEN SOURCE?
Avoiding lock-in is, as ever, perceived as the main Telco draw to open source software. Not surprisingly Telcos are significantly more attached to lock-in avoidance than the Full survey. Speed to market is the second favorite for Telcos; saving money is second favorite for the Full Survey. Other motivations posited by respondents included ‘risk reduction’; ‘improving innovation’; ‘collaboration’ and ‘joining a community of developers’.

ARE THERE TOO MANY OPEN SOURCE PROJECTS?
Both Telcos and the Full Survey are strongly in favor of there being fewer open source projects and see the value of them being pulled under an umbrella organization, a significant minority (29%) are happy for there to remain as many or more open source projects.
HOW WELL DO YOU FEEL YOU UNDERSTAND THE TERM “CLOUD NATIVE”?
Most in the industry think they understand cloud native - nearly a quarter say they understand it perfectly. Very few individuals admit to not getting or barely understanding it. 39% of Telcos admit they understand it only somewhat while the Full Survey claims a greater degree of understanding with 36% choosing understand it quite well.
HOW IMPORTANT DO YOU THINK “CLOUD NATIVE” IS OR WILL BECOME WITHIN NFV? WHICH STATEMENT IS CLOSEST TO YOUR OPINION?
Most may feel they understand it, but the jury is still out on exactly how crucial Cloud Native is going to be. Nearly half our respondents took the middle position where cloud native has a place but more work is needed; with nearly twice as many Not sure’s in the Telco camp than in the Full Survey camp.

IS NETWORK TRANSFORMATION (THE MOVE TO VIRTUALIZATION, NFV, SDN, ETC.) WITHIN TELCOS PROCEEDING FAST ENOUGH FOR TELCOS TO OFFER THE NECESSARY NEW, AGILE, AUTOMATED SERVICES NEEDED FOR THEM TO COMPETE?
The No’s won this by a considerable margin, although there were fewer No’s amongst the Telcos.
IF NO TO THE QUESTION ABOVE - TO WHAT DO YOU ATTRIBUTE THE SLOW PACE?
PICKED BY % OF RESPONDENTS
The slow pace wasn’t put down to any fault of the technology (technology not appropriate only got ticks from around 22%). Rather the Telcos were deemed at fault in one way or another, with the Telcos aren’t innovative by nature option being the favorite. Not surprisingly Telcos themselves thought it was more down to them not driving the process sufficiently, which might be seen as a Telco-friendly way of saying the same thing.

SECTION 4: TAKEAWAYS
What might we have gleaned from the results of this survey? While industry sentiment towards Open Source in general appears to have become more positive than they were even three or four years ago, there are still some strong caveats.
For instance, the perception of a slow introduction of NFV is assigned an interesting mixture of causes - while the move to Open Source NFV is blamed by some in our sample for this, the majority of our Full Survey participants find that, if there is a slow-down, Telcos themselves are, not so much to blame, but are finding the transition difficult for cultural and other reasons.
When it comes to Open Source as a corporate culture, Telcos don’t always appear to be throwing their weight (and their skilled employees) behind it in terms of code contribution. That may yet come.
We found OpenStack was being used (or soon to be used) by over half of the Full Survey and that there was a high degree of enthusiasm for it as the de facto standard for telco cloud.
Great things are expected of Open Source generally with just over a third of Telcos calling it absolutely crucial.
Having said that, all respondents think there are currently too many Open Source projects ongoing, a view widely shared. It’s been noticeable that umbrella organisations like the Linux Foundation have recently been consolidating them and coordinating their activities.
So in conclusion, Open Source is on the final stages of a journey towards greater acceptance amongst Telcos. The next ‘crucial’ technology staging post may be the adoption of ‘cloud native’ another technology deemed highly interesting, but with work still to do.
