Oracle Communications, in partnership with Intel, has announced the successful demonstration of carrier-grade network performance in a virtualised environment for communications service providers (CSPs) at the recent Oracle Industry Connect 2015 event in Washington.

As part of the project, Oracle has optimized specific products, including the Oracle Communications Network Service Orchestration Solution for the Intel Open Network Platform (ONP) using OpenStack open source infrastructure management software and its Enhanced Platform Awareness capabilities. The optimized products will be part of Oracle's orchestration framework.

Liam Maxwell, VP of Products, Oracle Communications. 
This initiative does more than just optimize Oracle Communications products for the Intel® Open Network Platform. It takes the theory of delivering carrier-grade capabilities in a commercial data center and turns it into reality. We've proven that we can orchestrate services and network functions from the top of the management and orchestration (MANO) stack all the way to individual network processors, and we can do it at scale.

John Healy, General Manager, Software Defined Networking Division, Network Platforms Group, Intel Corporation
The Intel® Open Network Platform server combines industry-leading server architecture with open source software to enable quicker delivery of NFV solutions. Our work with Oracle demonstrates how a powerful server can act as the catalyst for end-to-end NFV orchestration.
