Network Slicing with vSSF
Network Slicing Network slicing is a type of virtual networking architecture along with software-defined networking (SDN) and network functions virtualization (NFV). A network slice is a managed set of network resources and functions that can be specifically configured to support a particular service or application. Networking slicing allows the creation of multiple virtual networks on […]

MVNO Architecture Sessions (1) – Going from “Thin” to “Thick”
Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) architectures are often described as thick or thin as if there are only two acknowledged architectures accepted by the industry. In reality for any sizeable MVNO there is a range of decisions that need to be made depending upon the strategy being adopted and their approach to the market. One […]
Slicing the Mobile Packet Core
The Evolved Packet Core (EPC), the core system of the LTE network, was designed as a “flat architecture” in order to handle the payload (the data traffic) efficiently from a performance and cost perspective. The user plane (the data) was also separated from the control plane (the signalling) to make scaling independent. Thanks to this functional split, mobile […]
