Cloud-Native SBCs for Communication Service Providers
Transitioning Networks to Cloud-Native
Evolution of service provider’s mobile and fixed networks to cloud-native architectures and service delivery, means transforming not only their network infrastructure, but also the network functions software used for service delivery and the associated network operations.
Network transformation has already been happening in multiple stages, starting with migration from physical network functions (PNFs) running on proprietary hardware, to software-only network functions on virtual machines running on hypervisors on COTS appliances to virtual network functions (VNFs) implemented with network orchestration. And now the next step is the transformation to cloud-native network functions (CNFs) implemented as microservices deployed in containers and managed by automated cloud-native operations.
Ribbon’s Telco Cloud portfolio enables services at all stages of the network transformation journey.

Cloud-Native Operations and Automation
Ribbon Telco Cloud embraces cloud-native Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) practices to align with our customer’s adoption of CI/CD in their own cloud-native operations. As an integral component of Ribbon Telco Cloud, Ribbon Automation is a set of well-defined processes that are standardized across all Ribbon applications. Designed to easily integrate into our customer’s automation environment we can automate software delivery with tightly integrated automated testing and automated provisioning to enhance speed to market and reduce deployment issues.
Once a Ribbon product or service is deployed or upgraded, our customer’s cloud-native operations will dynamically perform lifecycle management for service scalability. If desired, customer traffic profiles can be created to provide a feedback loop for planning and the integration of customer-specific data to strengthen the testing of Ribbon’s software.
As a provider of hosted services, Ribbon is our own customer, where we have adopted CI/CD practices and utilize Ribbon Automation to simplify and streamline our cloud-native operations
