Through years of experience in NFV technology accumulation and project practice, we can gain insight into customers' requirements and help customers to build sustainable and rapid integration capability of third-party APPs. Through requirement investigation, integration HLD/LLD solution design, VNFD production, third-party APP package import, integration test and verification, we can achieve rapid integration of third-party APPs and accelerate the launch of services.
[Product Highlights]
Major Function
Requirement investigation
ZTE selects a specific integration interconnection plan according to NFVI resource requirement, interface requirement, customers' service requirement and O&M management requirement of APP/VNF NE integration which is offered by the third-party APP vendors.
Integration planning
Design the network planning for the third-party APP integration, mainly including network architecture, network resource planning, IP/VLAN resource planning, AZ/HA/tenant/subscriber planning, NTP planning, and name planning. Confirm the overview plan, and then design the execution, configuration and test plan.
Integration development
Perform adoption development of necessary interfaces or plug-ins based on the selected integration plan. Generate VNFD files for importing the third-party APP packages with the auto tool which is developed by ZTE, and perform encapsulation of the third-party APP mirror packages.
Integration verification
In an Openlab environment or the project test environment on site, establish the test environment according to the customer's requirements to deploy the third-party APPs and ZTE platform system and to perform the pre-integration test. Aspecific test includes function test, performance test, reliability test, and service test.
Service online
Complete the integration interconnection and deployment of third-party APPs on the customer's commercial DC, and complete horizontal interconnection on demand to provision APP services, complete the test on site and the customer's acceptance based on the manual acceptance guide.
