VMware Telco Cloud Service Assurance is an automated service assurance solution with fault management, performance management, service management, root-cause analysis, and service-impact analysis, all built within a single platform. VMware Telco Cloud Service Assurance reduces complexity for communications service providers (CSPs) and large enterprises by providing the operational intelligence needed to holistically manage complex multi-vendor virtual and physical infrastructure, from the core to the edge and RAN, all through a single, unified dashboard.
Here’s video series that provides an informative overview of the VMware Telco Cloud Service Assurance ecosystem, highlighting its key capabilities and features and how they work together. Watch the videos to discover the power of the platform for managing complex multi-vendor telecommunications infrastructure:
Anomaly Detection
The video highlights the importance of anomaly detection and explains how VMware Telco Cloud Service Assurance helps identify potential issues with telecom services well in advance by correlating the anomalies and proactively triggering alerts. Watch the video below to learn how you can take remediation action to restore service back to a healthy state.
Closed-loop Remediation and Automation
VMware Telco Cloud Service Assurance seamlessly integrates with SOL API-based orchestrators, like VMware Telco Cloud Automation, to enable closed-loop remediation. It quickly identifies and resolves issues by automatically correlating symptoms across the infrastructure stack, spanning physical, virtual, Kubernetes, CNFs, VNFs, and services. Once the root cause is identified, the platform presents a range of manual and automated remediation options, including SSH connections, ticket creation in third-party systems, and integration with various third-party systems and orchestrators for comprehensive problem resolution. Learn more about the platform’s closed-loop remediation and automation capabilities in this video.
Unified Data Collection Framework
The flexible data collection system of VMware Telco Cloud Service Assurance allows our partners to create their own data collectors for integrating third-party data sources. The data collector software development kit (SDK) provides a programmable framework to onboard data from through protocols like REST, Kafka, and SNMP. The collected data is then processed using machine learning algorithms to analyze performance metrics, identify issues, and generate actionable insights, including fault detection and alert triggering.
Network Slice Assurance
Network slicing lets you to create multiple virtualized network instances on shared physical infrastructure. Watch this video to understand how VMware Telco Cloud Service Assurance helps you monitor your network and enhance the management and delivery of these slices.
Pipeline reporting
As part of Day 0 deployment and configuration of numerous vRAN sites, you can use VMware Telco Cloud Automation as an orchestrator. Learn how the dashboard in VMware Telco Cloud Service Assurance gives you visibility into each stage of deployment in near real-time and provides a summary report.
