What We Found
Significant Design + Architecture Differences1. Significant VIM <-> NFVI integration
2. Unified P+V network fabric
3. Freedom to innovate on either side of platform interfaces
4. Substantial workflow-oriented automation
And pervasive software integration between
elements and layers
Profound Economic Advantages for the Open
Architecture Platform vs. the Tightly Bundled
Alternative• 5 Yr. Cumulative TCO 53% of TBP
• Overall Capex 47% less than TBP
• Overall Opex 57% of TBP
• New Service Creation Agility 3x Faster & 3x Less Costly
than TBP
