Technology upgrades (such as Ethernet backhaul, HSPA and LTE) have stimulated testing probe systems and performance monitoring. Whether you’re operating a mobile, fixed or converged network, companies are facing unprecedented demand for an improved quality of experience for their customers. With the introduction of virtualisation and services in the cloud, no transaction uses infrastructure the same way twice and with traffic models changing from voice- to data-centric services, it is leading to considerable strains on networks and budgets. Capturing and analysing data from applications, devices, and the network itself provides an accurate and comprehensive understanding of how well an organization is supporting application delivery. Network automation ensures that companies are operating as efficiently and cost-effectively as possible, while they prepare to transform to an all-IP next generation network. The very heart and soul of a truly optimised network is simplification, efficiency and automation.
The conference will bring together service providers, network equipment vendors, testing and test equipment vendors and providers of network automation, network intelligence, service assurance and optimisation solutions to discuss how to enable an early to market strategy with cost-optimized products that offer compelling performance.
Topics to be discussed include:
Network automation – how to improve network operation and performance and monetise data through new service offerings
Optimising and securing data transport over networks
Discussing service assurance, traffic probe systems, interoperability testing, fault and event management
Delivering effective Deep Packet Inspection (DPI)
Delivering Network Intelligence technology- gathering, management and analysis of network data
