ADVA launched the market's first NFV management and orchestration (MANO) platform delivered through a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model. The company's Ensemble SaaS MANO simplifies and accelerates uCPE deployments, ensuring faster time to revenue for communication service provider (CSP) and enterprise customers. Hosted in the public cloud and managed by ADVA or its partners, the offering provides access to critical management tools while delivering significant cost savings.

It enables CSPs and enterprises to harness the opportunities of virtualization without major investment in resources or training. The company's new Ensemble SaaS MANO can be purchased through a flexible, simple and success-based subscription model. It provides cost-efficient access to an open NFV MANO architecture that supports the rollout of secure virtualized service at scale across multiple locations.

The unique way of accessing the solution enables customers to make major savings on operational expenditure and offers CSPs the opportunity to establish new business before investing upfront in uCPE infrastructure. What's more, Ensemble SaaS MANO provides the ability to migrate from SaaS to a self-managed model if customers choose to make the switch in the future.
