Intent Based Automation
With intent-based automation the return on investment in the IP infrastructure is maximised. A programmable IP infrastructure in conjunction with SDN and integrated plan, build, control and maintain ensure network utilization is maximized over the network lifecycle and intelligent path computation with multilayer optimization ensure network utilization is maximized without compromising SLAs. The Muse SDN Domain Orchestrator provides this automation.
