Delivering innovation to Service Providers: Virtualisation

The world is going digital. And networking is going virtual. For service providers, it’s both a challenge and an opportunity.

It all starts with shifting customer demands. Consumers want more video. Businesses want services on demand.

And by 2020 there will be an estimated 24 billion devices connected to the Internet of Things – smart homes, smart cities, smart cars, even entire manufacturing chains.

It’s a future of new models of consumption and expanding revenue opportunities.

But delivering on existing networks will be complex and costly.

So how can you take advantage and experience all the benefits, not just escalating costs?

VIRTUALISATION IS THE ANSWER

At Cisco we believe the future is virtualisation. Smart networks that enable simple, agile and automated creation of new services and applications.

NEW OPPORTUNITIES

It could be consumers creating their own bespoke entertainment packages.

An app store of business applications.

Or virtual networks dedicated and optimised for the Internet of Things.

Virtualisation means you can be ready for the future. Not left behind. Or overtaken by competitors.
