Problem to be Solved
• Accelerate time to revenue = agile, software-centric service delivery infrastructure
• Increase rate of data center transformation, CSPs require proven data center
platforms deployable in the central office:
• High density, scalable solutions
• Carrier-grade open hardware
• Rapid deployment and integration of open source and commercial software components
• Scalable software-based services and applications.
• Need a “Domain 2.0” Infrastructure
• Platform designed for rapid installation in data center environments customized to specific application needs
• Pre-integrated platform and management software, reducing application development and deployment risk
• Telecom application software, services and network operation frameworks and tools, to help operators deploy
agile, DevOps service development and delivery capabilities

Carrier Grade OCP Derived Platform
• Leverage Open Compute and Open Rack as a base model
• …true to OCP principles, rather than re-packaged chassis & blades
• Update and tune for telecom-oriented CO’s data centers practices
• Don’t constrain
• Rigid backwards compatibility not a hard requirement
• Easy adaptation of existing COTS elements (OCP-contributed and others)
• Agile-style approach to deployable system instantiations & iterate quickly
• Collaborate tightly with customers all along the way
• Work closely with interested partners
• Create something useful, share, evolve, and expand

Anatomy of Carrier Grade OCP
• Physical
• Suitable for CO retrofit and new telco data center environments
• 19” rack width and standard “RU” spacing for greatest flexibility
• 1000 to 1200mm cabinet depth, supporting GR-3160 floor spacing dimensions
• Content/workload
• Heterogeneous compute and storage servers
• Management
• Ethernet based OOB management network connecting all nodes via a TOR management switch
• Optional rack level platform manager
• Networking/Interconnect
• One or more Ethernet TOR networking switches for I/O aggregation to nodes
• Fiber cables, blind-mate with flexible interconnect mapping.
• Environment, power seismic & acoustic CO environmental requirements applicable
• Safety and other certification standards also applicable
• NEBS optional (L1/L3)
