VMware Ready™ status for NFV

The Brocade® Virtual Evolved Packet Core has achieved VMware Ready™ status for Network Functions Virtualization (NFV). This designation indicates that after a detailed validation process, the Brocade Virtual Evolved Packet Core has achieved VMware’s highest level of endorsement, and can be found on the VMware Solution Exchange (VSX).

“This certification demonstrates a strong commitment between VMware as the leading virtualization vendor and Brocade as the networking leader for the New IP,” said Sachin Kapur, senior director, Software Engineering, Mobile Networking R&D, Brocade.

 

“Brocade is one of the first to be certified by VMware Ready for NFV, and the certification builds on existing success Brocade and VMware have shared in delivering NFV solutions to the market.”

 

Brocade has shown leadership in delivering real-world NFV solutions to Communication Service Providers (CSPs) running on the VMware virtualization platform, and VMware Ready for NFV certifies the Brocade Virtual Evolved Packet Core for compatibility with the VMware NFV infrastructure. The Brocade Virtual Evolved Packet Core provides linear and independent scaling in signalling, throughput and storage, and exceeds the performance available from purpose-built hardware for traditional Evolved Packet Cores—all while enabling lower total cost of ownership.

 

“We are pleased that Brocade qualifies for the VMware Ready logo, signifying to customers that it has met specific VMware interoperability standards and works effectively with VMware infrastructure, which can speed time to value within customer environments,” said Howard Hall senior director, Global Technology Partnering Organisation, VMware.
