CENX Unveils New Cortx Service Orchestration Suite
OTTAWA, Canada, September 16, 2014 /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."

evolving network, join us at the SDN & Virtualization Summit [http://sdnconference.com ],
co-located with Ethernet World [http://carrierethernetworld.com ], September 15-17th, or
