Muse Multilayer Automation Platform

Maximizing the Value of your IP Optical Networks

Lottie file

Muse Multilayer Automation Platform delivers real-time control over Ribbon IP & Optical networks, providing network operators with the capabilities they need to maximize the value of their network investments. It also integrates with OSS/BSS or higher-level orchestrators via northbound interfaces, and can integrate 3rd-party network equipment for visibility, topology & alarms.

Muse Value Propositions

Multi-Layer Topology

 

Challenge

How to correlate my IP and Optical Layers?

Muse Benefits

Muse provides a multi-layer network topology interface that lets operators visualize and correlate IP and optical connectivity in one place. This unified view improves end-to-end network visibility, enabling NOC teams to more quickly understand traffic flows, monitor connectivity, and diagnose the root causes of network issues—ultimately increasing operational efficiency.​

Network Insights

Challenge

Move from Reactive to Proactive operations

Muse Benefits

Muse Network Insights uses a powerful Business Intelligence engine to analyze both physical and logical inventory, network performance, utilization, and key metrics. It enables users to export reports, spot trends, and feed data into automation workflows giving network operators clear value by improving capital expenditure efficiency and enhancing NOC operations.

    Intent-Based Provisioning

    Challenge

    Provisioning & MAC (Moves, Adds, Changes)​

    Muse Benefits

    Intent‑based provisioning streamlines the creation of service templates by clearly defining standard configurations, KPIs, topology constraints, and assurance methods. This allows network operators to launch new services quickly using only essential parameters, reducing time‑to‑market and lowering the risk of human error.

    Workflow Automation

    Challenge

    Need to automate recurring ops tasks

    Muse Benefits

    Workflows automate a sequence of network tasks and processes, triggered manually or on a schedule. By automating Network Operations Center (NOC) activities such as troubleshooting, maintenance, and large‑scale operations, they help reduce human error and lower operational costs for network operators.​

    Self-Service Multivendor

     

    Challenge

    Providing visibility to third party equipment on “single pane of glass” NMS

    Muse Benefits

    Muse enables network operators to model and monitor third‑party equipment by providing visibility into network topology and faults. Its Network Controller connects to third‑party IP or optical domain controllers to automatically discover their topology, service ports, and alarms.
