"Data Center Fabric Business Case Analysis (BCA)"

In today’s modern data center networks, switching hardware costs are not the only measure of differentiation. The real value lies in the technology that makes networks easier to consume, more open and flexible, while having a positive impact on overcoming operational barriers to growth and scale.

This Nokia Bell Labs Consulting business case analysis (BCA) presents the operations savings that data center engineering and operations teams can realize as they transition from current generations of data center leaf-spine networks to next-generation leaf-spine fabrics. In addition to the next-generation fabric providing higher capacity and supporting great port speeds, the majority of operational gains will result from new network operation system capabilities and accompanying fabric management tools.

The Nokia Bell Labs Consulting BCA is unique in that it takes a complete and detailed approach to quantifying the savings related to designing, deploying and operating data center fabrics. Existing studies mainly focus on CAPEX savings, and while others include OPEX savings, they often only cover a subset of the operations phases, job functions and job tasks for data center fabric operations.

Data center fabric business case analysis (BCA) The BCA models a comprehensive set of operations tasks for Day 0 design, Day 1 deployment and Day 2+ operations of the data center fabric life cycle. It presents the OPEX savings that can be realized when evolving to Nokia’s next-generation, scalable leaf spine data center fabric.

Nokia’s Data Center Fabric solution is powered by Nokia SR Linux, a modern open NOS, Nokia’s high-performance data center switching platforms and Nokia Event-Driven Automation (EDA), a modern data center network automation platform that combines speed with reliability and simplicity.
