Industry Moving Towards Six Nines (99.999%) Availability (source)

Service Assurance (SA) and telemetry are increasingly relevant in 5G networks and Edge deployment as network architectures evolve to become more distributed. 5G and Edge networks introduces dynamic network architectures that require a level of closed loop automation and contextual service assurance for meeting Service Level Agreements (SLAs) establishing itself as a foundational pillar in the network transformation. Intelligence with Machine Learning algorithms & self-learning networks with artificial intelligence require a set of open standard telemetry interfaces from various layers of European Telecom Standards Institute (ETSI) Network Function Virtualization (NFV) model. Example of what Six Nines (99.999%) Reliability looks like is shared here.

A resilient cloud requires resilient platform technologies which include Resilient CPU, Resilient Memory, and Resilient Storage technologies combined with the ability to make the rich set of platform telemetry available using Open Industry Standard interfaces to multiple analytics methods including classical analytics methods and Machine Learning. Self-managed and highly automated data centers require understanding of fault…
