Huawei in a statement said that the company has helped Vodafone launch the world's first cloud-based VoLTE commercial network in Italy. Vodafone has deployed Huawei's cloud-based IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) core applications and cloud-based EMS (Element Management System) together with MANO-VNFM (Management and Orchestration-Virtualized Network Function Management), and an industry-leading automatic O&M platform.
According to Huawei, their solution goes beyond virtualized applications to help operators solve vertical integration for multi-vendor scenarios, SLA (Service Level Agreement) assessment for real-time telecom services in the cloud environment, E2E fault location and detection, integrated management of the complete NFV application lifecycle, and other typical issues arising from cloud transformation.
