挑战

The company, a leading telecommunications and technology company based in the Asia Pacific region, was facing challenges in dynamically allocating bandwidth to efficiently provide the exact network resources required by every user at any given time. This was critical to minimize latency in applications with large volumes of fast-moving data and to maintain high end-to-end performance in bandwidth-intensive applications, such as video, gaming and other multimedia. The rapid growth of cloud computing was putting tremendous pressure on carriers and enterprises to ensure reliable, high-performance networking services despite heavier traffic patterns and greater strain on network bandwidth for distributed computing operations. The company's infrastructure made provisioning a circuit for customers a multiweek process that included manually setting up switches, routers and other equipment.

解决方案

The company selected Mirantis OpenStack, along with integration services from Mirantis, to provide a flexible bandwidth solution utilizing SDN across multiple geographically distributed data centers to provide point-to-point connectivity between OpenStack clouds. Customers work from the network API, a self-service customer portal and a network control plane powered by Mirantis OpenStack using Fuel, to dynamically provision network connectivity and bandwidth by calling the API with automation tools. The company’s SDN platform provides Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) architecture to carriers and enterprises. The telecom can orchestrate multi-region application services in real time. Port-to-port connections can be provisioned in about four seconds, even between geographically distant data centers in different countries and continents.

运营影响

The company can now provision and deprovision circuits in seconds.
Customers can dynamically provision bandwidth only when needed, even in hourlong increments, with pricing information in real time for different types of bandwidth.
The service brings the financial benefits of highlygranular SLAs with just-in-time provisioning, bandwidth calendaring, and automatic path recalculation and failover.
The service is available in more than 10 data centers in five countries in the Asia-Pacific region as well as the United States, and will eventually expand to all of the company’s interconnected data centers across the Asia-Pacific region.
