The collaborations for LightRiver continue, and this time it’s with Infinera! In this latest collaboration, LightRiver and Infinera take a deep dive of network automation; a key trend that’s been observed throughout 2020.

“Automation will move beyond ‘process automation’ to something more central to operators’ business strategies.” Analysys Mason – predictions for 2020 trends that will make an impact in the next 12 months.

In an open ecosystem, the interworking of multi-vendor SDN controllers and orchestrators is critical to realizing the full benefits of a highly programmable transport layer. This interworking is also at the heart of open networking collaboration between Infinera and its channel partner LightRiver based on an interoperable, hierarchical framework for enhanced multi-domain, multi-layer network, service, and virtual network function (VNF) management and control.

The combination of the Infinera Transcend Software Suite and LightRiver’s netFLEX® Optical Domain Controller (ODC) paves the way for simplified operations and accelerated service delivery in open, multi-vendor, and multi-domain transport environments.
