(A) Overview

NFV-SDN Timeline

2014 2020 2013 2014 ～ 2016

POCs • Operators, vendors learn in lab • Few field trials

Field Trials • Vendors productize NFV/SDN software in operator lab trials • A few more field trials • ～ 10 Commercial deployments

Early Commercial Deployments • Many operators deploy 1 or 2 use cases • ～ 40 more commercial deployments

Wider-spread Commercial Deployments • Mainstream Adoption • Operators deploy several NFV/SDN use

cases, then more each year

SDN-NFV Adoption Update

Inf onetics Sept 2015

Current Operator Adoption

Considering or Early Stage

Market Deployment Leaders

• Telco Cloud Transformation

• Introduce cloud technologies in VF networks to deliver more efficient, reliable and differentiated networks for the future combining Telco strengths and Cloud benefits

• First Telco Cloud applications virtualized and introduced in live network in 2013 with strong further expansion during 2014

• Vodafone and Cisco are worldwide pioneers in the field of life Telco Cloud deployments learning together and developing our virtualized network

• Cisco is prime contractor and e2e-integration partner for several virtualization projects (e.g. vNGN, VoLTE, vEPC)

• Driving design, testing and network implementation steering further partners

Summary

People Process Tools

SDN/NFV is a strategic technology transformation

• Its not about virtualizing a VNF on a bunch of servers • Its about hosting VNFs on a Open, Programmable, Intelligent

Network Infrastructure with flexibility to Manage and Automate

Services

Leading to high Operational disruption …

a) Cost Savings

b) Revenue Impact – Reduce Churn, Differentiated Offering, TTM…

c) Investment Protection

d) Not currently planning

Question 1 What will be the Primary Driver for SDN-NFV

a) Driven by Virtual Network Function e.g. Mobile Core, IMS, vCPE…

b) Bottom up – Define a NFV Infrastructure (NFVi) Systems Approach

c) End to End – Define Orchestration, to VNF Management to NFVi

d) Not started SDN-NFV

Question 2 What if your organization’s Approach to SDN-NFV

a) Best of Breed for each component in the SDN-NFV Architectyre

b) In House Development & Engineering

c) Partnership with Vendors/Providers to implement Tested Systems offering

d) Not started SDN-NFV

Question 3 What is the Primary Adoption Plan for SDN-NFV?
