Dell Technologies’ new telecom offerings automate the deployment and management of open, cloud-native network infrastructure to fast-track opportunities at the edge.
Dell Technologies‘ new telecom offerings, including software, solutions and services help communications service providers (CSPs) accelerate their open, cloud-native network deployments and create new revenue opportunities at the edge.
Massive 5G growth
To support the massive growth of data expected from 5G applications and services, CSPs are moving compute infrastructure to the edge and looking to integrate a broad ecosystem of software vendors to capture new revenue opportunities. New technologies like Open RAN (ORAN) are giving CSPs a broader set of options for deploying network infrastructure to support future growth.
Dell Technologies Bare Metal Orchestrator telecom software offers the breadth and scale to automate the deployment and management of hundreds of thousands of servers across geographic locations to support ORAN and 5G deployments. Bare Metal Orchestrator gives CSPs the tools to discover and inventory servers, bring them online and deploy software, regardless of where they reside in the network.
With Bare Metal Orchestrator, CSPs can eliminate days or weeks of configuration and provisioning to bring network hardware into a workload-ready state. This reduces the time it takes for an open network to deliver differentiated, profitable services at scale. The software can reduce operational costs by orchestrating server lifecycle management and minimising errors and reliance on IT expertise. ACG Research estimates an up to 57% OpEx savings for CSPs deploying Bare Metal Orchestrator in their networks.
Expanding ecosystem
Dell continues to expand its open partner ecosystem by introducing new telecom solutions, reference architectures and services to accelerate ORAN and edge deployments while providing CSPs more network support through the creation of solutions such as the Validated Solution for Mavenir Open vRAN and VMware Telco Cloud Platform, Reference Architecture for Wind River Studio and their Respond and Restore for Telecom service which provides customers with support service level agreements to help maximise network uptime, limit network disruptions and maintain business continuity.
