In today's fast-paced and complex IT and mobile 5G network environments, organizations are increasingly turning to visibility and network automation solutions to improve network visibility, performance, and security.
As organizations adapt to an unprecedented rate of change, IT teams are grappling with a lack of automation and integration between technologies, a lack of broad and deep visibility, widening skills shortages, and increasingly complex licensing.
Network orchestration simplifies the management of complex networks by providing a unified view and control of resources, network fabric, and services to create a seamless user experience. Network orchestration improves network agility, scalability, and reliability while reducing operation costs and minimizing errors.
The skills with XCO are designed to deliver a unified and integrated orchestration experience for organizations.
With this approach, organizations can easily and quickly deployspecific capabilities and can scale and evolve their orchestration capabilities as their needs change over time.
The XCO architecture is built on the concept of composable skillsthat can be activated and accessed at the workspace or orchestration layer. The workspace application provides the graphical presentation of either fabric or visibility skills. This application is designed to provide an intent-based interface to define outcomes across a network fabric, or visibility, and to represent service and solutions.
The Visibility skill is based on another set of micro services and enables the centralized management for all Extreme Networks visibility products.
