Welcome to SDxCentral DemoFriday with Accedian Networks and SDxCentral Relevant Industries Who Should Attend? Key Takeaways Mobile Telecommunications Telecommunications equipment Managers responsible for network management, planning, deployment IT Executives How an instrumentation layer can be easily implemented over SDN & hybrid networks How SDN, NFV, and standards-based methods can be applied to QoS and QoE monitoring to drive 90% of the cost out of performance assurance How vcpe can play a key, integrated role in performance-aware networking Copyright 2012-2015.
