Is your legacy optical network still producing revenue, but without the Element Management (EMS) and Network Management (NMS) visibility or predictability to further improve efficiency and customer satisfaction? Are you swiveling between vintage platforms? Has searching for a way to take all the complexity, costs and inefficiencies associated with maintaining many Transport EMS/NMS applications, and consolidate them into one platform, been more than difficult?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, then it’s time to talk to LightRiver about unifying under a single, powerful, view and turn automated network visibility and analysis into a competitive advantage!
As a Network Operator with history, part of your Optical Transport network is legacy in nature, based on organic growth or through M&A. These legacy networks are likely supporting critical customer services and revenue. Based on budget considerations, there are probably minimal (if any) plans to migrate off of these legacy networks and disrupt the services and revenue in place.
The EMS and NMS platforms are likely from a variety of vendors, each one of which carrying various levels of ‘risk and OPEX cost and concerns.’
So, what should you do next?
Enter netFLEX®. Many times the OPEX you are already paying to support these legacy EMS/NMS applications (people, vendor maintenance, legacy HW support, others) – can pay for a netFLEX deployment by itself!
