IETF 106 Host Speaker Series

5G requires service providers to fundamentally reconsider how they deliver services across their infrastructure. Virtualized packet core and MEC applications will be delivered from new Edge Cloud infrastructure; 5G network slicing will require E2E SLA’s for eMBB, URLLC, MIoT, C-V2X slices optimized around different network characteristics; E2E services must be orchestrated and assured, with SLA’s monitored throughout their entire lifecycle; and all this must be done while achieving an improved total cost of ownership. This session will describe how Nokia is addressing these fundamental changes through its Network Function Interconnect (NF-IX) architecture, and some of the relevant IETF work enabling a standards-based introduction of these capabilities.
