White Paper:
When Services Move at the Speed of Light, Network Provisioning Better Rise to the Occasion
Optical networks are now pervasive. They have become the workhorses in operators' networks and the underlying physical infrastructure of choice in most network convergence plans. However, their promise of providing the world's fastest transport for virtually all TDM, IP, and mobile services is only as good as their operators' change management capabilities.
This white paper explains why the optical environment demands an advanced, innovative approach to network provisioning. It also argues that, although many current provisioning approaches are ill-suited to volatile optical network dynamics, operators can evolve at their own pace to advanced capabilities without wasting their valuable legacy OSS investments.
