Mobile World Congress: The Case for NETCONF and YANG Live event: Monday February 24th - Barcelona, Spain

http://www.tail-f.com/mwc-2014-town-hall/

Topics include discussions regarding: •  Service agility; why service providers are fed up with paying the adapter tax between the OSS and

the network

•  Need for standardization and model-driven architectures to achieve network automation and faster time-to-market of new services

•  Experiences implementing service orchestration systems using the NETCONF protocol and YANG modeling language

•  Future plans for standardization of YANG service models for common revenue generating networking services

Service Orchestration: Network-wide transactional integrity is required

NETCONF

End-to-end transactional integrity

Network CLI Network WebUI

Service Application e.g. VPN-provisioning

Device Setup e.g. Templates, Scripts

Transactional Network API Service Management + Device Management

L2-L7 multi-vendor devices

The network is a distributed

system

The network is a distributed system
