Network and System Integration Services from Alcatel-Lucent

• End-user expectations, hyper-aggressive competition, speed-to-market demands and regulatory changes have forever changed the way service providers approach their customers. This - coupled with the complexities of network evolution, profitability pressures and commoditization of core business lines, such as voice and data - has forced providers to explore innovation in ways never before imagined.
• Alcatel-Lucent Network and System Integration Services supports both service provider and enterprise customers in their network and business evolution with a focus on these key transformation services:
• Network Design, Integration, Optimization and Migration expertise assist our customers in getting the most out of their network investments through network planning and design facilitation, network infrastructure optimization, multi-vendor network integration, and reliable migration to next generation infrastructure.
• OSS/BSS, Service Delivery Platform (SDP) and Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) solutions and integration services include Business and Operational Process Consulting, Billing and Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Service Assurance, and Service Fulfillment. These services enable faster time-to-market (time-to-revenue), increased customer retention, and optimized operational/IT costs.
• Fixed, Mobile and Multi-screen Multimedia Integration Services include integrated multi-vendor solutions (such as IPTV, VoIP, Mobile TV) which allow content distribution over various channels (broadband, mobile and Internet). The practice offers intermediation services between service providers, enterprise customers and web community services. Additionally, the Alcatel-Lucent portfolio includes middleware and applications for multiple screens. To help bring it all together in an innovative multiscreen video and multimedia services offering, our customers can trust in Alcatel-Lucent global system integration leadership.

Understanding both the IT and communication network environments positions us as a trusted partner who supports the full lifecycle from advisor to integrator, to implementer and operator.

The 7750 Service Router (SR) as a mobile gateway is a high-performance, service-aware platform optimized to deliver the next generation of LTE-driven services with exceptional performance and scale.

As a mobile gateway, the 7750 SR provides deployment flexibility and service agility with concurrent support for Serving GW (SGW), PDN GW (PGW) and Gateway GPRS Support Node (GGSN) functions.  Operators can achieve additional network simplification and operational efficiency by consolidating many essential IP and mobile networking functions onto the same platform.

Switching Performance Fairness from CISCO

Since their introduction in 2002, Cisco MDS 9000 family switches have been built on central switching fabrics to ensure fair treatment of all storage traffic. This treatment aids consistent performance , regardless of whether traffic needs to be switched within a single line card or from one card to another.

Traffic fairness, combined with the extreme high availability of the underlying MDS 9000 platform, provides the agility required by modern virtualized data centers and cloud computing. These characteristics make the MDS 9000 especially well suited for IBM System z mainframe FICON environments.

Common LAN-SAN Operating System and Graphical User Interface (GUI)

The NX-OS operating system underlies both the MDS 9000 family and the entire Nexus family of data center Ethernet switches, from the Nexus 1000V switch embedded in the VMware vSphere hypervisor up through the largest 18-slot Nexus 7000 chassis.

The Cisco NX-OS platform is based on the proven MDS 9000 SAN-OS operating system, and takes advantage of the vast Cisco store of Ethernet expertise and innovation. It provides the ideal platform for SAN, LAN, and the smooth transformation of separate, installed networks into a unified fabric.

Virtual SANs (VSANs)

The VLAN technology so indispensable in the Ethernet environment to Fibre Channel, was adapted to create VSANs.

VSANs allow separate SAN islands to be consolidated into one economical SAN infrastructure. Each VSAN environment can then enjoy hardware-enforced traffic isolation, management isolation, fault isolation, and differentiated Quality of Service (QoS) levels. Cisco VSAN technology forms the basis for the ANSI T11 Fibre Channel standard for virtual fabrics.
