Reverb Networks reveals new Cloud SON network architecture |
Increasing NFV and launch of Cloud RAN opens the path to virtualization of the self-optimizing network function within a new Cloud SON architecture |
Sterling, Virginia, Monday November 17, 2014
Self-optimizing network pioneer Reverb Networks has revealed details of a new approach to installing self-optimizing networks within a Cloud Radio Access Network (RAN).
Reverb Networks recently introduced Predictive SON, which moves self-optimizing networks forward to next generation pre-active capabilities.
Now, with a roadmap to Cloud SON revealed in a new white paper and patent application, “Cloud SON: A New Member of the SON Family”, Reverb proposes to move SON functions into more a strategic position in the network command and control architecture.
“Reverb’s Cloud SON proposal isn’t a trivial detail, like hosting your SON software on a cloud hosting service. It’s a fundamentally new network architecture for self-
When coupled with Reverb Network’s existing Predictive SON capabilities, new Cloud SON technology moves the self-optimizing network domain closer to becoming the centralized “brain” of the network – a network operating system (NOS) that can predict cause and effect, strategize for best outcomes and coordinate network response in a holistic manner.
“Many of today’s operational system are analogous to the muscles and bones of the body, the basic electro-mechanical fibers. SON is the brain that delivers intelligence and coordinates effective use of those resources to achieve strategic results, and Cloud SON bring us one step closer to a unified set of intelligent capabilities,” said Kehler.
Reverb Networks will be exhibiting at the LTE Americas 2014 conference taking place in Dallas, USA, from 18-20 November 2014. More information can be found at the event website: americas.lteconference.com.
