What is Stratoss™?

Stratoss is a new cloud native product, designed to deliver web-scale levels of operational automation for the cloud-based networking world across highly distributed environments – both to telco and enterprise service providers.

A new OSS “in the control plane”, Stratoss accelerates the design, creation and continuous optimization of enterprise and communications services. It delivers “lights out” operational automation across hybrid and distributed cloud environments, lowering the cost of managing edge cloud fabrics for Enterprise and 5G, and increasing the pace of innovation.

Built from scratch as a fully cloud native product, Stratoss offers comprehensive end-to-end Service Orchestration, productized service modelling and design-to-operation DevOps CICD features, to create a unique product solution.

STRATOSS PROVIDES DEVOPS TOOLS THAT AUTOMATE THE NETWORK SERVICE FACTORY

Network Service Lifecycle Automation

Self network service design & test
Automated network service operations
Rapid VNF onboarding; quickly designed into complex services and tested
Continuously organise VNFs and their network service relationships across many heterogenous clouds
82% less effort
30x less manual activity

Why is Stratoss unique?

Many orchestration vendors make bold claims in terms of automation, which makes it challenging to understand precisely what sets Stratoss apart in this dynamic market.

CLOUD-NATIVE ARCHITECTURE
Leveraging the latest technology stacks/vision, Stratoss has been designed ground up over the past 3 years to provide a single cloud native product that can manage physical, virtual and cloud native networks/components, and the ability to accelerate migration from physical to cloud native networks. A single design/operations team can manage a highly automated, pattern-based setup from service to infrastructure, physical to cloud native, Day 0 to Day 2
‘Opinionated’ Product Mode
The product is architected around a product philosophy where all service design configuration is standardized once and then imposed/utilized repeatedly across the IT/network landscape’. Whilst this relies on the operator to embrace radical change and invest once in the design, it then provides the foundation for automated repeatability and the transformational business benefits that traditional workflow/scripting orchestration tools cannot enable.
Service modelling
Whereas other products enable network intent based on workflow, often only on Day 1 launch, Stratoss provides end-to-end service-centric intent from service to infrastructure. Using Stratoss, productized patterns can be designed once and then deployed.

Managing this complexity with current manually intensive operating model is prohibitive.

Managing the increasing complexity of networks as they move from traditional to cloud-based models becomes too challenging for today’s manually intensive operating model.

Here’s a comparison of how Stratoss can improve on today’s silo’d traditional model….

Silo’d Traditional Model
Stratoss

Day 0
Design & Test

Network Service Engineering Design technical service
– no operational foresight

Day 0 squad program automation tools with technical service designs that include all allowed operational tasks

Day 1
Initial Rollout

Automated VNF instantiation with highly manual inter VNF configuration tasks

Automated VNF instantiation, inter VNF configuration and readiness testing

Day 2
Change Management

Complex manual operations to identify and resolve issues, perform upgrades or service re-design

AI driven resolution of identified errors, with further auto diagnostics for unknown errors
