3. ZTE 4MIX Distributed Cloud Solution Won the “Best New Cloud Infrastructure” Award
To address the challenges resulting from 5G, such as high bandwidth, low latency and massive application scenarios, ZTE proposed the efficient and flexible 4MIX distributed cloud solution. It creates the optimal configuration for excellent user experience and precise deployment to meet all the requirements of 5G networks.
Based on the most popular distributed deployment architecture with “Center + Edge + Access” data centers (DC), ZTE 4MIX distributed cloud solution provides 5G services with flexible matching and effective operating cloud infrastructure.
ZTE 4MIX distributed cloud solution features the ultra-convergent integrated deployment, dual-core engine cloud platform, high-performance resource pool, and unattended O&M.
As a green, flexible, agile, secure and reliable solution, ZTE 4MIX helps operators establish an ultra-speed, large-capacity, and intelligent new-generation communications and information network infrastructure.
4. ZTE TECS CloveStorage Won the “Best New Open Source Product” Award
ZTE TECS CloveStorage is a Ceph-based carrier-grade distributed unified storage system featuring high performance, high reliability and high expansion.
ZTE TECS CloveStorage enhances the open source architecture, improves the storage management function and performance tuning so as to meet the demands for telecom cloud network deployment in the CT scenario.
By means of fast planning and deployment, ZTE TECS CloveStorage simplifies management and maintenance, saving O&M labor; with elastic scale-in/out, it achieves cost predictability in the expansion process.
ZTE ranks top 3 in the three consecutive commercial community versions. As one of the first teams engaged in Ceph R&D in China, ZTE has several community-level expert developers, and made great contributions to the open source community.
5. China Mobile and ZTE’s vBRAS Solution Won the “Best Network Edge” Award
To address the problems of the traditional BRAS, such as low resource utilization, slow service provisioning, and complicated O&M, ZTE launched the carrier-grade vBRAS, which echoes China Mobile’s proposal of innovative vBRAS based on C/U separated architecture.
By virtue of high scalability and reliability, ZTE’s vBRAS solution can meet operators’ requirement for large-scale MAN services and it is capable of replacing the traditional BRAS.
As the most suitable solution for operators, ZTE’s vBRAS can be widely applied. It helps operators build up a virtualized MAN with high efficiency and at a low cost.
6. ZTE CO Re-Architecting Solution Won the “Best New Edge & Access Solution” Award
To help operators utilize their prior investment by reusing the existing CO and equipment resources, ZTE proposed the CO Re-Architecting solution to reactivate the resources to meet the future 5G service requirements.
ZTE CO Re-Architecting solution covers the three key elements of edge CO re-architecting, end-to-end dynamic service orchestration and CUPS-based vBRAS deployment.
The solution can help operators save the network resource by 40-60% while shortening the service provisioning time, significantly improving the O&M efficiency.
Based on the open interfaces defined by open source organizations, ZTE CO Re-Architecting solution helps build up a healthy business ecosystem. Therefore, ZTE CO Re-Architecting solution is an optimal choice for operators to achieve edge CO transformation.
By now, ZTE's ElasticNet telecom cloud solution has been deployed in more than 360 commercial and PoC projects worldwide.
ZTE cooperates with global major telcos and actively participates in standards organizations and open source communities, such as ETSI, 3GPP, ONAP, OPNFV, OpenStack, OpenDaylight, and CNCF, to jointly build up an open and win-win industrial ecosystem.
