Cyan: Comprehensive SDN and NFV Solutions for Network Transformation
Mark Floyd, ChairmanCyan delivers network virtualization solutions for multi-vendor, multi-layer control, and a complete visibility to network operators for an effective and profitable service delivery. Based in Petaluma, CA, the firm offers several solutions that enable its customers to scale networks, reduce cost, and simplify network operations. “Our Blue Planet SDN Software, Z-Series Packet-Optical Platform, and N-Series Hyperscale platform allow customers to develop complete software-defined, open, and scalable networks,” explains Floyd.
Being a specialist in providing SDN solutions, the Blue Planet platform provides automatic SDN control and multiple vendor management quality, which is built to enhance network and WAN operations. “The platform offers a set of applications, such as, Planet Orchestrate and Planet Operate that is developed to manage and control both physical network elements and virtual SDN and NFV services,” says Floyd. Leveraging these applications can provide advanced visualization of network layers and elements, enabling users to have a better understanding of the network.
“With the continuous expansion of networks in size and technological complexity, Cyan’s unique solutions are developed for network operators to design networks in a quick and cost-effective manner,” says Floyd. Coupled with Blue planet, Cyan’s Z-Series Packet Optional platform provides solutions for network operators for upgrading their network from edge to the core. The Z-Series packet optical platform was formed to transform multiple technology layer networks to a manageable and scalable one. “The Z-Series provides a set of integrated solutions that offers up to 100GbE packet scalability, and applications such as Carrier Ethernet 2.0 service delivery, data center interconnect, router bypass, and more,” explains Floyd.
Cyan’s unique ability to provide a multi-layer visualization of the end-to-end network connections differentiates it from its competitors. Highlighting the uniqueness of the company, Floyd says, “Our CA-based Blue Orbit Lab is the key component of our SDN and NFV ecosystem,” says Floyd. Blue Orbit ecosystem helps in minimizing the interoperability risks for network operators and increasing the production deployments for multiple vendors.
Additionally, the Blue Planet software offers Element Adapters (EAs), that enable the platform to communicate with over 50 third-party devices for a multi-vendor networks. “With the aim at delivering advanced SDN solutions, we recently upgraded the Blue Orbit Ecosystem, for improving their customers’ services and meeting their SDN and NFV application, scale, and performance requirements,” concludes Floyd.
