Qosmos, the market leader in embedded Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) and network intelligence technology for use in physical, SDN and NFV architectures, will be showcasing service-aware NFV infrastructure based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform at the upcoming OpenStack Summit in Paris from the 3rd to the 5th of November.
Qosmos will demonstrate an enhanced service chaining architecture with intelligent traffic routing, where traffic can be routed intelligently and network packets can be directed only to the applicable service nodes to reduce infrastructure costs and enable new types of differentiated service combinations.
According to Qosmos, its SAM running on hypervisor-hosted platforms based on Intel® Xeon® processors, allows DPI functions to be performed locally and enables dynamic traffic steering according to Layer 7 policy and rules. As an example, the virtual switch can directly steer video traffic by bypassing a next-generation firewall virtual network function (VNF).

Efficient network operations are essential for communications providers to remain competitive in a crowded market. A service-aware NFV environment based on Qosmos and Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform can help to streamline network routing, reduce costs, and enable service providers to offer layered services to generate more revenue.
Jerome Tollet, CTO at Qosmos
New networks based on SDN and NFV cannot function without embedded network intelligence. Intelligent service chaining is a great example of how Qosmos technology brings a step-function improvement for the benefit of both developers and service providers
