Huawei launches intent-driven network solution

A global Information and Communications Technology solutions provider, Huawei, has launched an intent-driven network solution aimed at making organisations to derive maximum business value.
 
The solution, which was unveiled at the Mobile World Congress 2018, would enable software-defined network to evolve into intent-driven networks, the company said.
 
A statement by Huawei stated the company had already deployed 380 SDNs worldwide, including over 100 for telecom carriers, adding that an increasing number of carriers were aware that end users were demanding a better service experience.
 
According to the company, stakeholders need fast provisioning of services; network breakdown to be fixed quickly; and no break anywhere in the chain that may affect their quality of service.
 
However, it said today’s operations and maintenance systems were still based on the physical equipment, which could not address these needs.
 
The President of Huawei Network Product Line, Kevin Hu, said, “If we are going to meet end users’ demands around user experience, and help carriers succeed in their business, we have to build a network that really focuses on the experience.”
 
“Intent-driven networks can accurately read a user’s intention, and make it happen, because network configuration is automated from end to end.”
