Who is
?
VoIP Foundation
of the World’s
Largest Networks
Fastest Growing
SBC Portfolio
on the Market
Global Leader
in SIP
Communications
NFV and SDN
Of the two,
Virtualization is the more fundamental advance
NFV
(Network Function Virtualization)
– Implementing network functionality
on COTS (i.e. Intel)
– Improved abstraction and
functional modularity
– Improved economics
– Improved agility
SDN
(Software-Defined Networking)
– Separating network control and
data planes
– Enables centralized NFV control of
distributed, programmable network
elements
– Improved manageability
Why is Sonus interested in NFV?
Secure QoS Tunnel
Interworking
Application Signaling
Domains
– When you need to
communicate
between
applications
Securing Application
Domains
Enabling Application Control
of Network Services
– Large-scale security
and DOS protection
– When you need more
than
“best efforts”

SBC
• Industry’s First Example of Carrier-Grade NFV SBC
• Common Codebase & Feature Set with HW-based SBC
Technology Implications
It’s no longer just about specialized hardware
– Virtualize (NFV)
It’s no longer about unmanageable networks
– Decompose (SDN)
It’s no longer just about Voice
– Diversify (Video and Web Interworking & Policy)
It’s no longer just about Voice
– Ubiquify (Service delivery over IP)
– over SIP trunks
– over 3G/4G enablement

Is Open Source the Key to NFV Success?
• Open Source stops single vendor silos
• As an SBC vendor, we only provide part of the NFV
solution
• Well supported Open Source project can complete the
network
– Management API’s (REST)
– Router, firewall and other modules
– Virtual switches – QoS, traffic shaping steering
• Plug into SDN

TELCOS BUILD ON OPEN SOURCE?
Slide
Open source success: Hundreds /
thousands of carriers build on Asterisk,
FreeSWITCH, Kamailio, on COTS.
Scalable and Resilient: Yes - with
innovations in the area of five 9’s where
there are fewer models to replicate.

METHODS EQUALS WEB SCALE
Slide
 Massively scalable SIP call control implementation
 Delivering IMS Core components (and more)
 Designed from the ground for the Cloud
 Modeled on web design patterns for scalability,
reliability and security




Components kept largely stateless and storing
Long-lived state stored in clustered data stores
Currently testing at 50M + BHCA
Trusted/untrusted zones w/security groups / FW rules
 Highly portable - already demonstrated on
VMware, OpenStack, Windows Azure
 Development system in Amazon EC2 Cloud
 Projected running costs < $0.02 per subscriber / year
