Building the Network of the Future: Getting Smarter, Faster, and More Flexible with a Software Centric Approach

商品描述

From the Foreword:

 

 

"This book lays out much of what we've learned at AT&T about SDN and NFV. Some of the smartest network experts in the industry have drawn a map to help you navigate this journey. Their goal isn't to predict the future but to help you design and build a network that will be ready for whatever that future holds. Because if there's one thing the last decade has taught us, it's that network demand will always exceed expectations. This book will help you get ready."
--Randall Stephenson, Chairman, CEO, and President of AT&T

 

 

 

 

"Software is changing the world, and networks too. In this in-depth book, AT&T's top networking experts discuss how they're moving software-defined networking from concept to practice, and why it's a business imperative to do this rapidly."
--Urs H lzle, SVP Cloud Infrastructure, Google

 

 

 

 

"Telecom operators face a continuous challenge for more agility to serve their customers with a better customer experience and a lower cost. This book is a very inspiring and vivid testimony of the huge transformation this means, not only for the networks but for the entire companies, and how AT&T is leading it. It provides a lot of very deep insights about the technical challenges telecom engineers are facing today. Beyond AT&T, I'm sure this book will be extremely helpful to the whole industry."
--Alain Maloberti, Group Chief Network Officer, Orange Labs Networks

 

 

 

 

"This new book should be read by any organization faced with a future driven by a "shift to software." It is a holistic view of how AT&T has transformed its core infrastructure from hardware based to largely software based to lower costs and speed innovation. To do so, AT&T had to redefine their technology supply chain, retrain their workforce, and move toward open source user-driven innovation; all while managing one of the biggest networks in the world. It is an amazing feat that will put AT&T in a leading position for years to come."
--Jim Zemlin, Executive Director, The Linux Foundation

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This book is based on the lessons learned from AT&T's software transformation journey starting in 2012 when rampant traffic growth necessitated a change in network architecture and design. Using new technologies such as NFV, SDN, Cloud, and Big Data, AT&T's engineers outlined and implemented a radical network transformation program that dramatically reduced capital and operating expenditures. This book describes the transformation in substantial detail. The subject matter is of great interest to telecom professionals worldwide, as well as academic researchers looking to apply the latest techniques in computer science to solving telecom's big problems around scalability, resilience, and survivability.

 

 

商品描述(中文翻譯)

從前言：

「這本書概述了我們在AT&T關於SDN（軟體定義網路）和NFV（網路功能虛擬化）所學到的許多知識。業界一些最聰明的網路專家繪製了一張地圖，幫助您導航這段旅程。他們的目標不是預測未來，而是幫助您設計和建造一個能夠應對未來挑戰的網路。因為如果過去十年教會我們一件事，那就是網路需求總是會超出預期。這本書將幫助您做好準備。」
--Randall Stephenson，AT&T董事長、首席執行官及總裁

「軟體正在改變世界，網路也是。在這本深入的書中，AT&T的頂尖網路專家討論了他們如何將軟體定義網路從概念轉化為實踐，以及為什麼迅速實現這一點對業務至關重要。」
--Urs Hölzle，Google雲基礎設施高級副總裁

「電信運營商面臨著持續的挑戰，需要更大的靈活性，以便為客戶提供更好的體驗和更低的成本。這本書是對這一巨大轉型的非常鼓舞人心和生動的見證，這不僅對網路，對整個公司都是如此，並且展示了AT&T如何引領這一變革。它提供了許多關於電信工程師當前面臨的技術挑戰的深刻見解。除了AT&T，我相信這本書對整個行業都將極具幫助。」
--Alain Maloberti，Orange Labs Networks集團首席網路官

「這本新書應該被任何面臨“轉向軟體”驅動的未來的組織閱讀。它提供了AT&T如何將其核心基礎設施從以硬體為基礎轉變為以軟體為主的整體視角，以降低成本並加速創新。為此，AT&T不得不重新定義其技術供應鏈，重新培訓其員工，並朝向開源用戶驅動的創新邁進；同時管理著全球最大的網路之一。這是一項驚人的壯舉，將使AT&T在未來幾年內保持領先地位。」
--Jim Zemlin，Linux基金會執行董事

這本書基於AT&T自2012年開始的軟體轉型之旅所學到的經驗教訓，當時激增的流量增長迫使網路架構和設計進行變革。利用NFV、SDN、雲端和大數據等新技術，AT&T的工程師勾勒並實施了一個徹底的網路轉型計畫，顯著降低了資本和運營支出。這本書詳細描述了這一轉型。該主題對全球的電信專業人士以及希望將最新的計算機科學技術應用於解決電信在可擴展性、韌性和生存能力等重大問題的學術研究者來說，都具有極大的興趣。
