WSIS Prizes Contest 2020 Nominee

Open low cost SDN/SD-WAN


Description

The digitalisation of Telecom operators' networks is based on SDN framework. SDN, that stands for Software Defined Network, consists of a set of technologies covering:
1) Centralised Network Resources Controller
2) Centralised Orchestrator
3) Physical resources virtualisation.

The aim of SDN is to bring more agility in network management by reproducing the technologies of the Cloud Computing.
One of the straightforward use-case concerns the provisioning of a secure WAN connectivity, named SD-WAN, for Software Defined Wide Area Network.
This project concerns the specification, the development based on open source frameworks and open standards, the deployment and the performance evaluation of a Secure SDN/SD-WAN for ATM-Mobilis.
The project is part of the digitalization roadmap of the operator within the 2020 Global Roadmap in order to enhance and ensure the operator’s Network readiness for 4G++ and 5G evolution allowing the operator to design a fully agile network supporting the economy digitalization with the support of the different verticals such as government services, industry, education or any service slicing and B2B verticals.
