  • NFVi orchestration has followed a carrier centric path, while web-scale automation remains focused on simplicity. What is the best way forward? Adam Dunstan, VP of SDN and NFV Engineering at CenturyLink, joins TIA NOW with a look at their hybrid solution.

  • How do we resolve the laundry list of API specs vying to be the virtualization industry standard? TIA NOW speaks with Hema Kadia, Vice President and Head of Strategy and Practice at Prodapt, about the risks and rewards of winning the API battle, and how to proceed in the meantime.

  • We’re at the edge of the future as it relates to the power of virtual networks, but what’s the status of NFV during this transition? TIA NOW’s Clarence Reynolds speaks with Telefonica’s Patrick Lopez, VP of Networks Innovation, and Antonio Elizondo, Head of Network Virtualization and Strategy, for an update on NFV.

  • Performance is critical for virtual networks. But how will NFV maintain service levels that propel 5G networks efficiently? Dave Stehlin, General Manager of the Lifecycle Service Assurance Business Unit at ‎Spirent Communications shares his insights with TIA NOW.

  • The march towards network virtualization has many service providers focused on infrastructure. As stand-alone and full-solution testing takes place, questions remain about the true existence of a comprehensive and interoperable NFV infrastructure. Wayne Cheung, Director of Product Marketing at Juniper Networks talks with TIA NOW’s Clarence Reynolds about how to define that progress and what this transition means for legacy network integration.

  • Accelerating the development and adoption of NFV requires working with service providers and ecosystem partners to help build deployable solutions. But what barriers still exist that prevent virtualized networks from being deployed everywhere today? Timon Sloane, VP of Standards and Membership at the Open Networking Foundation, shared his advice on navigating the complexity of NFV adoption and how industry can benefit from open source platforms.

  • Leveraging more programmable networks based on SDN principles that support an operator's need to grow their business is what these panelists discuss with TIA NOW from TIA's Connectivity Jam.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • As the telco industry is going through significant transformation in automation and network virtualization, service assurance and real-time analytics play an important role. Here at Mobile World Congress 2017, TIA NOW speaks with two important figures in the communications networking space: Andre Fuetsch, President of AT&T Labs and CTO of AT&T and Philippe Morin, COO at EXFO.

  • NFV is evolving quickly, and Mobile World Congress is a great opportunity to follow the progression of the network virtualization space. On this panel are four leaders in the NFV space from GENBAND, HPE, Intel and Wind River.

  • Brian Bronson, CEO of Radisys, talks with TIA NOW's Abe Nejad at Mobile World Congress 2017 about real use cases for NFV that have been demonstrated, and his belief that operators are now less reticent to adopt virtualized network technologies.

  • There are opposing opinions about the long term value of NFV by some in the wireless industry and TIA NOW will cover both sides of the debate for and against the role out of software-defined and virtualized networks. Joining us in the TIA NOW Studio is Norman Fekrat, Chief Strategy and Revenue Officer at Lemko, a software company enabling next-generation mobility.
