MILPITAS, Calif. (PRWEB) February 28, 2023
Anuta Networks, a leading provider of network automation and assurance solutions, has unveiled its new Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) architecture using an End-to-End (E2E) Service Management Domain supported with Tele Management Forum's (TMF) Open APIs. The new architecture simplifies deploying and managing cross-domain services by combining operational domains into a single, unified platform.
Managing and deploying a service typically involves interactions with multiple systems across various operational domains. This scheme makes seamless communication between systems difficult, requiring human intervention while slowing down business agility and time-to-revenue.
The TMF is a consortium of leading CSPs and ecosystem vendors that provide services, solutions, software, and hardware to CSPs. The primary objective of the forum is advancing and promoting the use of Open APIs to simplify inter-system communication and payload standardization. Anuta Networks leverages Open APIs to weave together cross-domain services by providing a centralized platform where the resources of all relevant operational domain controllers and network elements can be accessed.
Anuta’s ATOM platform is a leading service management solution that addresses critical gaps in the E2E Service Management Domain, as discussed in the TMFs Open Digital Architecture (ODA) specification. The ODA standard enables members to build highly complex but adaptable solutions using loosely coupled components that expose business functionality through standard APIs. ATOM's advanced orchestration and assurance capabilities, combined with TMF and the Operational Domain Managers (ODM), also create a comprehensive and dynamic Network-as-a-Service (NaaS) solution that enables networking agility and Innovation.
ATOM’s NaaS Architectural Elements:
● Compliance with TMF's ODA ensures reliable service management solutions that meet industry standards.
● Support for Open APIs enables CSPs to deliver faster, standardized, and higher-quality services that include:
- TMF 628 - Performance Management
- TMF 633 - Service Catalog Management
- TMF 638 - Service Inventory Management
- TMF 639 - Resource Inventory Management
- TMF 640 - Service Activation Management
- TMF 641 - Service Ordering Management
- TMF 642 - Alarm Management
- TMF 652 - Resource Ordering Management
- TMF 645 - Service Qualification Management
- TMF 653 - Service Test Management
- TMF 656 - Service Problem Management
● An Open API Gateway allows ATOM to facilitate requests from other systems.
● Support for TMF APIs facilitates seamless communication between different systems and applications, improving interoperability.
"We are thrilled to introduce our new NaaS architecture with E2E Service Management Domain and TMF API Gateway support," said Praveen Vengalam, VP of Engineering at Anuta Networks. "This latest addition in our integrated network lifecycle management portfolio provides organizations with an unprecedented ability to unlock a wider range of services and capabilities, all while maintaining a competitive edge in the market."
Anuta Networks' commitment to the ODA standard and the use of TM Forum's Open APIs ensures ATOM's interoperability with a broad range of vendor-specific tools and products, enabling CSPs to make their network truly automated at a massive scale. By utilizing the Active Assurance capabilities, ATOM's end-to-end service management upholds network compliance across multi-vendor environments and ensures the quality necessary to maintain SLAs intended to streamline service deployment and management for quicker time-to-market.
