Software Solutions

By integrating Red Hat OpenShift into the Nokia Cloud Platform, CSPs, and enterprises are able to deploy multiple vendors’ applications on the same cloud infrastructure, the official release said.

Nokia is also providing 2degrees with its MantaRay Network Management solution for a consolidated and automated network view for improved network monitoring and management.

Nokia Registers consist of multiple software functions, such as Authentication Server Function, Unified Data Management, and Home Subscriber Server, while SDL, where data is stored, consists of multiple software functions, like Unified Data Repository and Unstructured Data Storage Function.

2degrees said: "As we continue our journey of network modernisation, we are pleased to be taking another meaningful step with Nokia Registers and SDL, rolled out on Red Hat's OpenShift. That combination provides us the flexibility and reliability that we require to meet the evolving needs of our customers."
