Network Solution Introduction
Networks Solution Introduction (NSI) is a comprehensive recurring services designed to facilitate seamless integration, validation, and introduction of new RAN, rApp, and Transport software/Hardware and solutions, features, or technology into an existing CSPs infrastructure. This ongoing process ensures that CSPs can continuously evolve their networks by incorporating new hardware, software, and RAN functionalities while maintaining optimal performance and security.
Here is the NSI key offerings:
- RAN Solution Assistance: Providing network impact intelligence and expertise correlated with software upgrade on implementation and evolution of advanced RAN solutions and features in customer specific environments or scenarios.
- Lab Services: On demand, simulates aspects of a live network to test and certify new solutions, equipment and use cases (i.e. new chipset, 3P network components).
- RAN SW Onboarding: Customized and automated CI/CD pipelines to orchestrate software supply, configuration, onboarding, validation, and upgrade of the networks.
- Automated Testing Services: Lab regression testing & validation including Management of Test Object List, auto configuration, with automatic AI-driven execution of test cases, analysis, and reporting.
- Pilot Cluster Upgrade: Performing upgrade of first clusters of nodes, known as CD or FOA zone. Including AI detection of anomalies during the upgrade and rollouts.
- New Feature Stack Validation: Activating and validating new features and configuration in the lab and Pilot Cluster for both HW and SW to ensure they operate with accepted performance with the new functionalities.
