Vodafone Group has selected NEC/Netcracker's Hybrid Operations Management (HOM) solution to support its transition into a telecommunications cloud provider.
The virtualization initiative will incorporate the use of cloud-native, SDN and NFV technologies to evolve operational and business systems and processes. NEC/Netcracker's Hybrid Operations Management will support this initiative by orchestrating and managing end-to-end resources and services within Vodafone domains.
The solution will help Vodafone streamline and automate operational processes across its operating companies in order to increase service efficiency and flexibility.
This will reduce the time it takes to launch new services and enable dynamic, closed-loop operations with automated lifecycle capabilities in order to meet unpredictable and constantly changing network demand, said NEC/Netcracker.

As we accelerate the transformation of our network and services to fully leverage cloud and virtualization, Orchestration and Automation plays a critical role in how we build and operate both the infrastructure and our business.
Andrew Feinberg, President and CEO, Netcracker
As customer demands change, service providers are under increasing pressure to leverage networks that will enable the delivery of new services and support evolving customer lifestyles.
