MYCOM OSI last week announced the launch of the Assurance Cloud Service, delivering the Experience Assurance & Analytics (EAA) suite of applications from the cloud with capabilities not feasible when deployed on-premises or private clouds.
The Assurance Cloud Service provides a platform for the mission-critical assurance of advanced services in the 5G era, said MYCOM OSI.
An upgrade to the Assurance Cloud, which was launched during Mobile World Congress in February 2019, the ACS provides specific features that are not available in on-premises and private cloud deployments, by leveraging deeper integrations with cloud providers such as Amazon Web Services (AWS). MYCOM OSI’s full control over deployed environments provides new support for hybrid, distributed deployments as necessitated by latency-critical advanced service categories use cases.
The Assurance Cloud Service supports advanced service assurance use cases augmented by AI/ML, including predictive fault and performance anomaly detection; continuous root-cause analysis for proactive detection issues; and the implementation of more advanced Autoflow automation to reduce manual time and effort in service assurance.
MYCOM OSI’s Assurance Cloud Service provides a cloud native platform leveraging AWS services like Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2), Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS), Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS), AWS CloudFormation, AWS Systems Manager, Amazon CloudWatch, and AWS CloudTrail aligned to well architected principles. The solution also enables MYCOM OSI to deliver closed loop service assurance automation through Amazon SageMaker.
The Assurance Cloud Service provides a comprehensive set of service assurance capabilities (fault, performance, service quality management, orchestration and advanced analytics) that are packaged into pre-integrated ‘Digital Transformation Solutions’, enabling network and service operations centers (NOC/SOCs), planners and business users to rapidly integrate advanced service assurance capabilities into their operations, managing hybrid physical and virtualized – and cross-domain converged communications and IT networks from a single system.

Using the MYCOM OSI Assurance Cloud Service, customers can shorten the time to realize cloud native service assurance and benefit from ML-powered predictive network management use cases, now with Amazon SageMaker integration.
