A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : DevOps for Software-Defined Telecom Infrastructures Authors : Catalin Meirosu Antonio Manzalini Juhoon Kim Rebecca Steinert Sachin Sharma Guido Marchetto Ioanna Papafili Kostas Pentikousis Steven Wright Filename : draft-unify-nfvrg-devops-02.txt Pages : 20 Date : 2015-07-06 Abstract: Carrier-grade network management was optimized for environments built with monolithic physical nodes and involves significant deployment, integration and maintenance efforts from network service providers. The introduction of virtualization technologies, from the physical layer all the way up to the application layer, however, invalidates several well-established assumptions in this domain. This draft opens the discussion in NFVRG about challenges related to transforming the telecom network infrastructure into an agile, model-driven production environment for communication services. We take inspiration from data center DevOps regarding how to simplify and automate management processes for a telecom service provider software-defined infrastructure (SDI). Finally, we introduce challenges associated with operationalizing DevOps principles at scale in software-defined telecom networks in three areas related to key monitoring, verification and troubleshooting processes.
