Based on a number of IMS early implementations worldwide Lucent Technologies – ProprietaryUse pursuant to company instruction

  4. Technology Challenges • Reinforcing the Layer 2/Layer 3 Infrastructure • IMS requires high levels of stability, availability, and consistency across network elements, such as DNS and IP topology. • New requirements for OA&M, redundancy, backup, signaling, bearer traffic, VPN, may require significant changes to existing network models. • Securing the IMS • The distributed nature of IMS creates new requirements for a distributed security implementation. • IMS must provide: Confidentiality, Communications integrity, Privacy, Availability. • Performance Engineering for the IMS • The distributed nature of IMS, along with new traffic characteristics & services, require new planning models. • Encompassing: Element-level view, Application-level view, End-user quality-view, Aggregate (core network) view • IMS Interoperability • Interoperability testing becomes increasingly more complex as the number of elements & vendors in the solution grows. • Key criteria include: Manufacturer/model/revision, Service/product definition, Usage scenarios, Required features, Existing infrastructure. Lucent Technologies – ProprietaryUse pursuant to company instruction

  5. Organizational Challenges • Convergence isn’t just about technology • Changes in the technology are prompting carriers to consider organizational convergence • Processes & best practices need to be standardized across organizational boundaries • “Carrier grade” operations processes must apply to resources that may be owned & maintained by IT personnel • Interfaces and responsibilities must be clearly defined • Up-front executive commitment from all involved parties is critical, because issues will occur over the course of the project Lucent Technologies – ProprietaryUse pursuant to company instruction

  6. Operational - Challenges Operational Expense associated with network migration • Cost savings may be a driver, but it may take a while to get there • Fault resolution across multiple network and access domains • Troubleshooting becomes more complicated • Demarcation points need to be clear Capital Investment Required for Next Gen Network Components Current Network Hybrid Network IMS Network Present Transition Future Lucent Technologies – ProprietaryUse pursuant to company instruction

  7. Migration Program Challenges & Risks • Major program schedule delays are caused by • Failure to commit to key architectural decisions • Changing priorities due to changes in drivers & business case • Insufficient Attention to Transport, Network Databases, Signaling/IN, OSS • Lack of Coordination among Multiple Vendors • Inadequate Program Management • Operational Issues during Transition • Provisioning, Billing, Maintenance • OS Migration Must Account for Transitional Network • Dual Provisioning • Database Synchronization • Customer Care, Fault Resolution, Troubleshooting • Impacts • Customer Dissatisfaction, Increased Operational Costs, Delayed Revenue Lucent Technologies – ProprietaryUse pursuant to company instruction

  8. Best Practices • The importance of the Solution Architect • Maintains purity of IMS technical vision • Provides technical leadership across multiple functional and organizational teams • Strong Program Management is essential • Set firm dates for milestones and push hard to stay on schedule • Maintain the appropriate lab facilities • Minimum of two labs - one for current environment, one for next release • Formalize interactions across vendors, internal orgs, and partners • Develop detailed interface specifications with all interested parties at the table with written commitments for specific responsibilities • Formalized IMS program joint-ownership sessions • Institute a “Solution Management” function • Multivendor IMS is a reality, carriers need a way to ensure integrity of the solution over time Lucent Technologies – ProprietaryUse pursuant to company instruction

  18. Bill answers the call from Mary and discusses the situation. Mary Ann, his administrative assistant, covers his calls after two rings. Bill, a claims rep. is at the site of a serious bus accident. • Mary, the president of the bus company, calls Bill’s number. The call rings on both Ann’s and Bill’s phones (presence enabled simultaneous ring). A Service Scenario: Insurance claims investigation Mobile Office extension & call pick-up • Ann picks up the call for Bill after two rings • Ann notes on her ActivePhonebook display that Bill’s availability status is ok to accept only urgent calls via push-to-talk. She considers this urgent as she also knows his location from the iLocator display. • Ann contacts Bill using click/push-to-talk service (VoIP to Wireless). Bill gives his approval & Ann uses “click-to” transfer the call to Bill. Lucent Technologies – ProprietaryUse pursuant to company instruction

  19. Bill and Mary decide they need to bring a bus representative into the discussion, they click-to-conference in the bus sales representative. Bill Mary A Service Scenario: Insurance claims investigation(Continued) Bill is talking to Mary on his 3G phone device about the accident. Mary wants to understand quickly if her company is at fault. • Bill initiates a Push-to-Show session with Mary showing the likely cause of the accident is a faulty bolt that caused the wheel to fall off. • He then instant messages Ann for any records on recent claims related to faulty bolts. Ann file transfers the record abstracts. • Mary looks up the bus’s maintenance record. It might be a manufacturing defect on the bus. She file transfers a copy to Bill’s phone.
