  • At ONS 2017, Raghuram Parvataneni, Specialist at Verizon, speaks with Abe Nejad about how IoT and increased data consumption is making the process of creating intelligent networks more challenging. Parvataneni also talks about machine learning and its role in creating intelligent networks.

  • The upside of 5G is huge and attracting a larger community of carriers, enterprise and application developers. TIA NOW spoke with industry leaders about where to look next for 5G and how virtualization and automation will impact the network. Panelists include Drew Schulke of Dell EMC, Martin Bäckström of Ericsson and John Healy of Intel.

  • Focusing on the end solution and application - enabled by network orchestration, automation and service assurance - is just one thing that Chris Wright, VP and Chief Technologist at Red Hat is tasked with. He spoke with TIA NOW about the progress around containers, container networking and the open source community, from the Open Networking Summit 2017.

  • Ned Taleb, CEO at Nexius spoke with Abe Nejad about the move towards real world applications and the importance of network enablement of machine learning and data science. Taleb talks further about intelligent networks and how they support AR/VR and AI.

  • What are the biggest challenges cloud operators and application developers face as we build new computing paradigms for enterprises and service providers? Chris Aniszczyk, COO at the Cloud Native Computing Foundation spoke with Abe Nejad about the funcionality and importance of containers and cloud native computing architectures.

  • Predicting network behavior prior to making changes to production equipment for legacy, SDN, or hybrid environments is key according to David Erickson, CEO at Forward Networks. He spoke with Abe Nejad about the importance of de-risking business operations and driving operational efficiencies through network visibility and change management processes.

  • How can industry ease the burden on the new emerging innovative VNF vendors and on operators on existing TEMs? Uri Elzur, CTO of the Data Center Network Solutions Group at Intel spoke to Abe Nejad about some of the critical road-blocks we must resolve in 2017 to allow Telcos to reach their technical, business and financial goals.

  • The Open Network Automation Platform (ONAP) Project recently announced that its code and documentation are now open. So what is ONAP’s primary function and how can developers access this production-ready code base? Arpit Joshipura, GM of Networking & Orchestration at the Linux Foundation and Chris Rice, Senior Vice President at AT&T Labs tells us everything we need to know about ONAP.

  • What are the challenges when merging the culture of open source with the exacting requirements of carrier-grade infrastructure? Heather Kirksey, Director of Linux’s Open Platform for NFV spoke with Abe Nejad about OPNFV’s integration of upstream open source projects such as OpenDaylight and KVM into an open, carrier-grade NFV reference platform.

  • Are we closer to the starting line than the finish line of NFV? What should industry be focusing on at this stage of the NFV maturation cycle? These are questions that Dave Ward, CTO of Engineering and Chief Architect at Cisco spoke about from ONS 2017.

  • Timon Sloane, VP of Standards and Membership at the Open Networking Foundation and Phil Robb, VP of Operations, Networking and Orchestration at the Linux Foundation, speak about how the structured process by which an idea becomes usable code in a well-run open source project occurs.

  • Sam Greenblatt, CTO of Nano Global talks about how open source can treat diseases through cell-based analysis, at the molecular level. Greenblatt also discusses how open source can optimize data flows, open networking and databases for the needs of cell-based and real-time analysis.

  • Mark Showalter, Senior Director, Corporate Marketing at Infinera spoke with Abe Nejad about the significance and impact of new optical networking solutions.

  • Andre Fuetsch, President of AT&T Labs and CTO at AT&T and John Donovan, Chief Strategy Officer and Group President at AT&T Technology and Operations, talk with TIA NOW's Abe Nejad about the design of next-generation 5G wireless infrastructures, software-defined networking and automation, from the show floor at ONS 2017.

  • TIA NOW hosts a panel at ONS 2017 on operationalizing NFV networks as well as new design architectures, tools and standards to secure the network. Joining the panel are Rajesh Gadiyar, Senior Director of Architecture & Systems Engineering of the Network Platforms Group at Intel and Brenda Boehm, Chief Strategy Officer and EVP of Technology & Products at TIA.
