Ciscos strategy for service providers including helping them capitalize on the emergent Internet of Everything is to solve our customers most important challenges by delivering converged, intelligent networks that drive monetization optimization and acceleration - the top priorities for Service Providers. Put more simply: make money, save money, move the business faster.

The undercurrent behind our Cisco service provider strategy is the hardware, software and services. Hardware with supporting ASICs accelerate network speed, power and scale. Software is the engine behind virtualization and services orchestration. Services enable the creation of new, personalized experiences for the operators and most importantly the end-users of the services.

There are three tenants behind our Cisco service provider strategy:

Innovation of our technology and capabilities today and into tomorrow, and address customer care-abouts of accelerating speed-to-market and optimizing the network.

Business models behind new services, partnerships and ecosystems.

Flexible Architecture which is about a singular, horizontally integrated architecture that is the platform for Cisco solutions, programs and services.

Service provider execution of the three tenants behind the Cisco service provider strategy include: Innovation (of our technology and of the end-user experiences), Business models and converged networks empower service providers over time to realize the full potential of a profitable Next-Generation Internet - one that is more mobile, visual, virtual and simple.

Ciscos service provider vision and strategy are validated through the tens of global service provider success stories we have shared to date. Well share several of them here today.

So what is our mission for Service Providers..

Clearly to help service providers transform their business through innovation and to bring the power of the network to the applications and services.

We have two complementary platforms -- the EPN that provides the foundational layer of both physical and virtual infrastructure across an elastic network fabric -- We announced this back in September 2013.

The Evolved Services Platform -- flexible, modular , and open with advanced automation and orchestration capabilities -- we announced this back in February 2014

Both platforms use SDN, NFV, and Open APIs and include technologies from multiple vendors .. Eg Openstack, Vmware, Citrix,

Service providers are looking for flexible models for acquiring service elements to help them decide how best to deploy new capabilities into their expansive networks and transform their business models.

Imagine the possibilities of being able to pick individualized, virtualized functions. That can drop into and plug nplay with your existing network or, buying configured subsystems of virtualized functions coupled with orchestration all integrated together or prepackaged and pretested PODs of tailored functionality that are designed for mobile, video or any number of other service apps. PODs designed to easily integrate with your existing OSS and BSS systems. Its a dramatic innovative way to buy and build solutions enabling SPs to lower their integration costs or easily move deploying as-a-service offers using cloud based scale and delivery models.

Granular or packaged capabilities that simplify operations and increase service agility as they plug nplay with one another and can be repurposed on the fly using open interface that link to existing legacy as well as 3rd party components.
