4 WE ARE EVOLVING… (AND EXPANDING THE MARKET) NFV APPLIANCE vEPC/vIMS vCPE NFV ORCHESTRATION NFV PLATFORM ENTERPRISE TOTAL PROJECTS WORLDWIDE: 75 CLOUD INNOVATION CENTER CUSTOMER NETWORK CENTER

5 THE MARKET HAS HIGH EXPECTATIONS FROM NFV Scalability, flexibility, & extensibility High asset utilization Continuous deployments & upgrades Open competitive landscape Innovative ecosystem NFV integration services OUR CUSTOMERS EXPECT OPEN SOURCE TO TAKE A MAJOR PART IN ACHIEVING THESE BENEFITS Interoperability is key for an NFV platform requiring open APIs and common functionality, and standards processes are lagging open source Most tier 1 Telco’s demand open solutions, and ask for open source and several push OPNFV Pooling resources with other companies increases velocity and quality of the code

6 SO AS VENDORS WE HAVE SEVERAL OPTIONS VENDORS BE A PART OF THE COMMUNITY BUYMAKE proprietary code tailor made for customer needs long development cycles customers challenge the value of proprietary code customers are concerned with lock-in 3 rd party s/w stacks feature & content compromises open source usage contribution & project initiation community involvement

7 OUR CHOSEN STRATEGY? address our customers NFV needs & provide added value in alignment with open source projects ensure our customers are provided with their required features WHEN THEY NEED THEM guarantee ALIGNMENT with community direction through contributions as needed evolve open source projects to our desired directions through focused community involvement & influence
