BLUE PLANET PORTFOLIO

Intelligent automation software for network operators


ACCELERATING DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION WITH SERVICE LIFECYCLE AUTOMATION

Network operators are digitally transforming and evolving the way their
businesses operate. The objectives are to improve the customer experience,
reduce operational costs, and increase network and service agility, ultimately
reducing the time it takes to create and deliver a new generation of on-demand
digital services. This transformation involves breaking away from legacy
customized OSS solutions by virtualizing networks, and embracing open standard
APIs to intelligently automate the services lifecycle.

The Blue Planet intelligent automation portfolio provides the key software
components network operators need to streamline and digitize the entire service
delivery lifecycle—from design to activation and assurance. The open and modular
Blue Planet product family includes dynamic inventory, service order management,
multi-domain service orchestration, unified assurance and analytics, and more.
At the same time, all Blue Planet products are cloud-native and vendor-agnostic,
ensuring that they interoperate seamlessly with other vendors’ products, and are
easy to integrate—without requiring extensive customization.



To help network operators optimize their operations, we offer a variety of
intelligent automation solutions that combine our Blue Planet software products
with standardized integration services. These well-defined and proven
multi-vendor solutions, such as Bandwidth on Demand (BoD) and Inventory and
Network Synchronization (INS) help operators rapidly address their business
challenges and ensure a business outcome.
