Network observability is more than just the capture of wire data. True network observability means understanding the how and why of network performance in support of business goals – all while delivering the right data as actionable metrics. In the recent VIAVI Perspectives blog, 5 Steps to Network Observability Checklist, the critical and actionable network […]
To keep up with the complex, hybrid networks of today, organizations must have a comprehensive network observability platform that embraces wire data, enriched and enhanced flow, and cloud sources to ensure optimal application delivery to stakeholders. That digital innovation requires a reliable and secure network foundation to deliver its promise – starting with basic observability. […]
Synchronization testing of servers in a lab environment will not necessarily reflect the actual results in the field. Read why verifying synchronization in the live, working network is the only way to assure timing accuracy and performance. Obstacles to achieving 5G’s promised performance lurk around every corner. Let’s face it, distributed and disaggregated architectures that […]
Timing and synchronization is everything in 5G For a mobile network operator, timing is everything. Not just determining when to upgrade the network to bring new services to market, but in the literal sense as well. If the radio clock loses synchronization accuracy in a radio access network (RAN), or the radios are out of […]
