stc, Netcracker and Casa Systems on Monday announced the successful completion of a joint proof of concept (PoC) in Solution by stc Center of Excellence LAB to automate network slicing in a 5G core network using domain orchestration. 

From a digital marketplace perspective, stc can now offer enterprise customers and end 2 end network slicing capability for a fully automated network slice-based service.

 

Network slicing partitions the network into multiple, unique virtual networks over a common infrastructure. By utilizing a 5G core and network slicing orchestration, stc can offer new solutions and services by allocating network slices to serve the specific requirements of a service or vertical market. To meet the dynamic needs of enterprise verticals, network slices must be provisioned and scaled on demand, which can only be achieved though end-to-end automation.

Bader Allhieb, Infrastructure VP from stc
We are focused on creating a state-of-the-art 5G network to bring the most advanced technologies and solutions that will enable our customers to capitalize on evolving market needs. Solutions, Netcracker and Casa have proven to be very agile in responding to our vision for delivering innovative and automated 5G services. 

Bob Titus, CTO, Netcracker
As we in stc are serving government, healthcare and education, 5G and network slicing will play a fundamental role in how we design and build solutions for connectivity, cloud services, cybersecurity and morem using Casa’s cloud-native 5G core and Netcracker’s core orchestration solution.
