Radisys and NS Solutions Partner to Deliver SDN, NFV and Security Solutions

Partnership Supports Expansion in Japanese Telecom Market

Radisys® Corporation(NASDAQ: RSYS), a global leader of open telecom solutions, and NS Solutions Corporation, an information technology solution provider in Japan, announced that they have partnered to deliver Software-Defined Networking (SDN), Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) and security solutions to leading communications service providers in Asia.

Highlights

• CSPs are eager to introduce SDN and NFV into their networks in order to support future 5G requirements and to achieve cloud benefits of scalability, increased resource efficiency and reduced costs. To meet the growing scale and performance requirements of SDN and NFV architectures, Service Function Chaining and Load Balancing with high throughput are critical to avoid traffic bottlenecks.
• Service Function Chaining enables CSPs to use software to dynamically set up and manage their network services and deploy them on the fly based on real-time subscriber information, while the Load Balancing feature then selects which virtual machine or container will receive and process each traffic packet, thereby eliminating network congestion.
• Radisys’ FlowEngine™TDE-2000 intelligent traffic distribution platform delivers Service Function Chaining and Load Balancing capabilities via a unique SDN spine and leaf architecture. The architecture collapses multiple appliances, previously needed to deploy these capabilities, into a single compact 1RU form factor with integrated management. It can be controlled by a variety of SDN controllers, including ODL and ONOS.
• Radisys and NS Solutions will jointly develop solutions, leveraging Radisys’ FlowEngine, that will allow CSPs to easily introduce new services with greater speed and agility, provide holistic management, and increase granular security to combat cyber threats, all while realizing a huge reduction of CapEx and OpEx.

“Radisys is excited to partner with NS Solutions and extend our reach into the Japanese market by enabling in-region CSPs to transform their mobile networks to keep pace with exploding data traffic,” said Neeraj Patel, vice president and general manager, Software and Services Solutions, Radisys. “We are working with NS Solutions to develop solutions for leading CSPs in Asia and thereby showcase how Radisys’ open telecom solutions meet and even exceed CSPs’ network requirements in this new telecom cloud era.”

“We’re pleased to partner with Radisys to deliver innovative SDN solutions to our CSP customers and enhance our ability to support CSP network requirements in Japan,” said Masayuki Iida, Director, Systems Engineering Department-I Telecom Solutions Division, NS Solutions. “Radisys’ industry-leading FlowEngine TDE-2000 platform will enable us to help our customers introduce disruptive applications rapidly with new SDN architectures.”
