“This year’s NFV & Carrier SDN will challenge the industry leading experts to consider how to monetize service providers’ network and operations transformations,” says Roz Roseboro, Heavy Reading Principal Analyst for Cloud Infrastructure and Management and one of the hosts of the NFV & Carrier SDN conference. “No doubt technical issues remain, and we’ll certainly discuss what’s happening at the distributed edge, developments in security and automation challenges, but to really move the industry forward, we need to be thinking about how to accelerate service providers getting the best return on their investment.”
NFV & Carrier SDN is sponsored by diamond sponsor Huawei; principal sponsor Ericsson; super platinum sponsors ADVA and NETSCOUT; platinum sponsor Pluribus Networks; gold sponsors Accedian, Intraway, Tata Communications Transformation Services and Xilinx, demo sponsors netElastic Systems and RAD; and workshop partner Intel.
