NEWSWIRE October.17.2014 Dear Indiana,   In case you haven't been paying attention, networks are going virtual, and network functions virtualization (NFV) is poised to replace tons of purpose built communications hardware with innovative software. It's no surprise that the number of NFV-related stories is increasing. Alcatel-Lucent, NTT DOCOMO, GENBAND, Ericsson, and NEC all made NFV news this week. Catch up on the buzz in the Pipeline News Center.   Carrier aggregation is a technology that allows mobile operators to combine multiple carrier bands in order to get a big boost in bandwidth. It's also a key enabler for LTE-Advanced (and what Huawei is calling 4.5G). Nokia Networks teamed up with Qualcomm recently to showcase interoperability and carrier aggregation across three bands, and the results were impressive to say the least. Data rates of up to 300 Mbps were demonstrated. That's 30 times faster than average terrestrial broadband speeds in the U.S.! You can read all about NFV, LTE-Advanced, 5G, fiber and more in the latest issue of Pipeline - check it out!   Best,   Jesse Cryderman Senior Editor NEWS HEADLINES 10/16/2014 Time Warner Cable Makes CEM Proactive with CSG SmartVideo TWC selected CSG SmartVideo solution to help customers understand their first bill, which is often the most complex billing statement customers receive.   Click here for the full story 10/16/2014 CenturyLink Builds New Home for Cloud Innovation in Seattle The opening of the Cloud Development Center creates opportunities for customers, partners and industry influencers to discover CenturyLink Cloud innovations.   Click here for the full story 10/16/2014 AT&T Joins Green Grid Association AT&T will help drive effective and accountable resource efficiency across the rapidly changing ICT industry.   Click here for the full story 10/16/2014 Shell Improves Cyber Security with Cisco Shell has deployed the Cisco Secure Ops Solution to increase security maturity level by improving its cyber security and risk management.   Click here for the full story 10/16/2014 Nokia Networks, Qualcomm Demo Carrier Aggregation for LTE-A Companies successfully complete interoperability testing of three-band Carrier Aggregation using 40 MHz split across three bands, enabling advanced operators like SK Telecom to increase LTE-Advanced data rates by up to 33%.   Click here for the full story 10/16/2014 GENBAND Joins HP OpenNVF Program GENBAND will play a key role in collaborating with HP and ecosystem partners to help accelerate service providers' transition to NFV.   Click here for the full story 10/15/2014 Ericsson Helps Displaced Filipino Families Reconnect Innovative SMS service allows Filipino families to take the search for missing relatives into their own hands, through a simple text message.   Click here for the full story 10/15/2014 Millenials Embrace Big Data, Says Telefonica Survey Nearly 80 per cent of young adults aged 18-30 feel in control of their personal online data, according to the survey.   Click here for the full story 10/15/2014 Oracle Adds Data Subscription Model to Data as a Service Product New data subscription model that provides a centralized, cost-effective way to buy and use 3rd party marketing data.   Click here for the full story 10/15/2014 Cisco Ramps Up IoT, Expands Fog Computing Cisco outlined increasing industry ecosystem partner momentum and new hardened IoT platform support, and introduced its IOx Application Management Module.   Click here for the full story 10/15/2014 Mobile Farming Technology Improved Income, Productivity of 30,000 Africans The effort is a public-private partnership between Vodafone, USAID and TechnoServe.   Click here for the full story 10/15/2014 NEC Successfully Test Core Network Virtualization in a Multivendor Environment This event marks the largest test of Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) in the telecom industry.   Click here for the full story 10/14/2014 Cisco and Tieto Collaborate to Advance IoT Adoption Cisco and Tieto, the largest IT services company in the Nordic countries, today announced a global Internet of Everything collaboration, which helps various industries from manufacturing to healthcare take advantage of the tidal wave of data generated by machines and derive more value from their existing networks.   Click here for the full story 10/14/2014 Alcatel-Lucent and KT Collaborate to Accelerate NFV The collaboration with Alcatel-Lucent forms part of KT's efforts to evolve its Giga Network, in which NFV will underpin the development of a new architecture to increase efficiency, lower costs and increase cloud products.   Click here for the full story 10/14/2014 Nokia Networks Nets Major Deal with China Mobile Nokia Networks further strengthens its TD-LTE footprint in Chinese wireless equipment market.   Click here for the full story 10/14/2014 Huawei, Etisalat Showcase 5G Mobile This is the first time 5G technology has been presented in the United Arab Emirates.   Click here for the full story 10/14/2014 Ericsson and NTT DOCOMO Demonstrate NFV Ericsson activated its virtualized Evolved Packet Core (vEPC) on another vender's orchestration platform, which was chosen by NTT DOCOMO successfully, with vEPCs from another vendor successfully activated on Ericsson's orchestration platform.   Click here for the full story 10/14/2014 Deutsche Telekom, China Mobile Establish Joint Venture for Connected Cars Deutsche Telekom to provide telematics expertise, the connected car platform technology and customer insights.   Click here for the full story
