Software-Defined Infrastructure is the Foundation for Next-Generation 5G Mobility in Telco Clouds

Today's complex Telco Cloud face a new level of reliability, performance, and scalability to support the demand and rapid growth of mobile data traffic. With the evolution of 5G, Telcos have looked to organizations like ESTI, www.etsi.org, to assist in setting trustworthy and independent standards for best practices. Following these standards, many of the worlds largest Telcos have looked to the ESTI model of leveraging a Software Defined Infrastructure including Software Defined Storage to provide them the underlying architecture to deliver the cutting edge services their customers require. Below you will find the NFV reference architecture framework from ENTSI which includes the virtualized or software-defined infrastructure layers:
