ZTE CloudStudio VNFM Ranked as Leader by GlobalData


ZTE Corporation, a major international provider of telecommunications, enterprise and consumer technology solutions for the Mobile Internet, today declared that its CloudStudio (formerly vManager) VNFM product was ranked as Leader by GlobalData in its latest standalone VNFM survey report titled “ Standalone VNF Managers: Competitive Landscape Assessment”.

GlobalData, a world leading provider of data and analysis, points out that VNFM product is an important part for VNFs interfacing with MANO to complete virtualization capabilities. Operators need a generic VNFM, whether strictly ETSI-compliant or not, to deploy multiple VNFs to finish the first step to network virtualization transformation. A generic VNFM which can be sold standalone or integrated should possess powerful capabilities in decoupling or integrating with third-party APPs / VNFs and NFVO.

ZTE’s VNFM features the following strengths according to GlobalData:
Extensive support for multiple VIM types, including telecom cloud like OpenStackand VMware , private cloud, and public cloud like AWS, addressing interface features of different virtualization resource layers.

Major Function

VNF/APP lifecycle management

ZTE VNFM supports flexible access management of VNF/APP from the third party, and VNF/APP lifecycle management including version package registration, auto deployment, scaling, expansion, termination, etc. Lower OPEX, energy saving and emission reduction can be achieved by scaling.

Auto deployment

ZTE VNFM deploys VNF automatically cooperating with NFVO, and supports multi-VNF concurrent auto deployment, system fulfillment enhancement, network deployment period reduction, fast service time to market.

Centralized management and intelligent O&M

ZTE VNFM supports centralized management and unified view of VNF resource across domains, vendors, and vendors. It also supports active finding problems and making optimization policy to improve network quality, expert knowledge database auto generation after VNF/VIM alarms correlation and root causes analysis; and fast system recovery.

Open source

ZTE VNFM complies with ETSI MANO specification, and the proposals add up to more than 100. ZTE VNFM actively participates in open source technologies: premier member of OPEN-O, the 2nd contribution ranking, PTL in four projects (GVNFM/Policy/Holmes/COMMON). ZTE VNFM utilizes adaptors for flexible expansion with 20+ VNF integration experience.
