› Intel RSD is a design architecture

– Hardware disaggregation,

composed based on workload

– Open source software components

› Ericsson is the first vendor getting RSD

with Compute, Storage and Networking.

› Ericsson and Intel have strong

partnership & commitment to RSD.

› Dell, Huawei, SuperMicro and other

vendors are also following RSD.

Increased utilization and faster time

to market through a SW defined

infrastructure, that can flexible combine

components as required by workloads.

Disaggregated hardware

Increased efficiency and improved HW

utilization through seamless scaling

of compute and storage infrastructure

to fit the workload’s needs.

• Lead Technology – R&D :

– They like to take a challenge such as

“first in the world”

– Leading 3GPP and other standard.

• Transforming to global ecosystem :

– As result of leading technology,

sometimes has taken different path

compared to global market

– Technology evolution moves faster than

ever, shifting to global ecosystem

DOCOMO SOLUTIONEricsson contribution


Challenges

• Pending standards on orchestrator

• CEE (VIM + NFVi)

– Lack of OpenStack carrier grade features

• Multi-vendor integration

– API definition & verification with each VNF vendor

• New technology and new partner

DOCOMO drives us towards perfection

Conclusions

• “No difference” between classic & vEPC

• NFV issues: OSS & complicated maintenance

• NFV cuts building/operation costs by >10%

• Further savings expected:

e.g., increased cost-efficiency of network

equipment (COTS HW), automatic

maintenance of network nodes, etc.

TelefónicaGlobal virtualization project

"Ericsson's global reach and cutting-edge

technology in the field of network virtualization

were key factors in the decision to make them

part of this project.

We look forward to beginning this rollout in

Germany in the near future."

Enrique BlancoGlobal CTO of Telefónica


• Industry is in the transition from vertical virtualization to Cloud.

• Important to address the transformation from an E2E perspective:
