CENX, a global leader of Service Orchestration solutions for software-defined networks, has received a new multi-million dollar order from a Tier 1 North American service provider. The customer is extending their Cortx Service Orchestrator deployment to rollout Just-In-Time Capacity Management throughout their mobile backhaul network, to gain significant upgrade savings.

Cortx Service Orchestrator is a flexible software product that automates services lifecycle management for a broad set of use cases. The Just-In-Time Capacity Management solution applies sophisticated algorithms to network big data, to forecast capacity upgrades when and where they are needed to meet user quality expectations, and automates the upgrade process, just-in-time. This approach delivers substantial benefits to service providers:

— Reduced capex —accurately forecast timing of capex investment by aligning user demand and network utilization, and deploying additional network capacity when required

— Reduced opex —reduce the cost per upgrade by automating time-consuming manual processes, based on user-defined upgrade policies which control when upgrades are triggered

— High user quality of experience—provide performance-assured network connectivity services by engineering network capacity to effectively deliver services end-to-end

— Increased service agility —minimize service turn-up time with automated ordering and provisioning of network elements and turn-up testing

CENX is demonstrating its Cortx Service Orchestrator capabilities at SDN & OpenFlow World Congress, October 14-17th and at MEF GEN14, November 17-20th.
