CENX Unveils New Cortx Service Orchestration Suite

Ottawa, Canada (ots/PRNewswire) -

Services Lifecycle Management Essential to Software-Defined
Networks

CENX [http://cenx.com ], a global provider of Service
Orchestration solutions for software-defined networks, today
announced the launch of its Cortx Service Orchestration
[http://www.cenx.com/cortx-service-orchestrator ] suite, which brings
service agility to networks migrating to Software-Defined Networking
(SDN) and Network Functions Virtualization (NFV), while dramatically
improving operations. With five years in the industry, serving
mobile, wireline, cable and cloud data center service providers, CENX
is expanding its product offering to bridge the needs of traditional
physical and virtualized networks.

To meet today's skyrocketing data usage, service providers need to
deploy services flexibly, quickly and with quality, leveraging SDN
and NFV innovations. Cortx Service Orchestrator
[http://www.cenx.com/learn/videos.html ] is a vital tool that meets
that need by automating the entire lifecycle of service ordering,
provisioning, implementation, analytics, and assurance.

Unlike legacy Operations Support Systems (OSS), the Cortx Service
Orchestrator abstracts underlying network complexities into a unified
service model, making it ideally suited for multi-layer network
domains, spanning multiple technologies such as SDN and NFV:

- Its open REST APIs allow rapid integration to SDN Controllers and NFV
Management and Network Orchestration components.
- It supports agile fulfillment and continuous assurance for a variety of
network services, such as IP VPNs, MPLS core and Ethernet connectivity.
- Founded on distributed virtualized computing technologies, it provides the
performance and elasticity needed in NFV infrastructure, for network scalability and
real-time big data analytics.

"We are excited to launch our new Cortx portfolio which builds on
the success of our inaugural Ethernet Lifecycle Manager product,"
said Ed Ogonek, President and CEO of CENX. "To realize SDN/NFV's
promise of service agility, and opex and capex reduction, service
providers need a fundamentally new approach to managing network
services - one that has been engineered to orchestrate services
top-down, across both physical and virtualized infrastructures,
across multiple vendors, and across multiple carriers."

"SDN and NFV adoption is being inhibited by a lack of standards
and immaturity of OSS, policy-based controller products that can
integrate with operators' existing environments," said Glen
Ragoonanan, Principal Analyst at Analysys Mason
[http://www.analysysmason.com/People/Glen-Ragoonanan ]. "CENX
leverages its multivendor network connectivity heritage to provide an
end-to-end service orchestration solution that aims to propel SDN and
NFV adoption that can coexist with operators' existing infrastructure
and operations."
