Automation and Service Agility
The agility and speed would be very helpful and a advantage for NFV when you are starting or adding something.new to an addition. Automation will still have it's ups and downs but we'll see how it all turns out.

Re: Automation and Service Agility
Networks are becoming so complex that automation can really help to navigate the pitfalls in some system design. I've always been an advocate for software-based networking, and we're getting closer to that reality for sure.

Re: Automation and Service Agility
I think that on the scale of today's networks, automation becomes essential. Without it, we'd have a lot more down time.

Re: Automation and Service Agility
Ariella,
Even more importantly, the machines can analyze the problem, pick an optimal solution, implement it, and verify that it is working in less time than it would take for human to read a document (even on screen) explaining what the problem is.

Re: Automation and Service Agility
@JohnBarnes, absolutely that's the real game-changing effect of automation: the ability to act on data in real-time.
Re: Automation and Service Agility
Yup, REAL TIME is what works for industry now. No lagtimeand latencies accepted at all.
Re: Automation and Service Agility
@John.B:
That is very true. Here is my guess, i am not a robo pro though. All this goes well till there is an issue with Robo or in the automation process. Not sure what are the troubleshooting techniques, but with human elements that becomes much easier.

Re: Automation and Service Agility
Well, one thing robots are definitely better at is taking the blame!
Re: Automation and Service Agility
Ha Ha...that is a good one @John. B !
Re: Automation and Service Agility
And no one is ready to accept any downtime. If you think back, folks use to run mainframe reports and wait a day to receive reports before they perform next step in the process. That is totally unimaginable now, but i personally witnessed business users following that process in on eof the reputed firms in NYC in late 90's - early 2000's.

Re: Automation and Service Agility
Ms. Akkineni,
"And no one is ready to accept any downtime."
I think you may just have found the definining difference between the 20th and 21s centuries!
Re: Automation and Service Agility
@John. B:
Ofcourse, no one is ready to accept downtime. What i was trying to say is we are ok to be convinced to have downtime willingly as per plan, if needed to be. I don't think i can convince my teenager for the same no matter what.

Re: Automation and Service Agility
True, and speed is super important. Especially today everyone wants things as fast as they can.

Re: Automation and Service Agility
I'm starting to think that people are addicted to speed!
If they can't have it now, they don't seem to ever want it.
Re: Automation and Service Agility
Absolutely, this is just addiction and obsession. As you said these younger folks act like 'Now or Never'. And interestingly enough their interests chnage way too fast and in the wait they may even choose to find something else.
Re: Automation and Service Agility
Speed is becoming priority especially with younger genetations. They just can't wait for anything. I have a teenager who gets resless to wait even seconds in some cases.

Re: Automation and Service Agility
I can definitely relate to that. I’m guilty of always wanting things super fast..
Re: Automation and Service Agility
@dlr5288:
No surprise at all. We see this trend more coomon with younger generations. Considering reality factor and adjusting expectations only would happen with experience.

Re: Automation and Service Agility
Yeah true. I think it’s because I’m always on the move doing something and most of the time I don’t have enough time to wait for something to load or take a super long time to connect to me.
Re: Automation and Service Agility
Yes, there are all good reasons why no one likes to wait longer. That's a bit hyper when it comes to yonger crowd.

Re: Automation and Service Agility
I think it’s a huge reason why technology is changing at an increasing rate. Also why there’s a new iPhone out all the time. They’re trying to create something faster and faster each time.
Re: Automation and Service Agility
Ofcourse it is very clear that there is a need from consumer and hence companies are trying to build new things at jet speed to cope up. But at times tere has to be a point to take a step back and reevaluate to make sure of the quality occassionally. That would ensure a quality product into the market.

Re: Automation and Service Agility
Exactly! There is a need for things to be made and sent out fast. But like you said, at some point they need to take a step back and make sure the quality is up to par.
Re: Automation and Service Agility
@dlr5288:
Yup, that is what is required. But not happening in reality all the time. Those companies that are just running for temporary results are the ones that are taking a toll. Hope companies are learning to follow better process.

Re: Automation and Service Agility
And in the end it’s just hurting business. People are going to become tired of buyers bf things for bad quality and it will become something that companies have to take seriously.
