RESOURCES
Lenovo and Intel are collaborating on solutions that simplify and accelerate the selection and deployment of hardware and software needed for CSP (Communications/Cloud Service Provider) Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) workloads. These solutions can transform CSP networks end to end, spanning the data center to the central office out to the network edge, and significantly lower costs.
Lenovo has joined the Intel Select for NFV Program and announced a Lenovo Intel Select Solution for NFVI Reference Architecture based on Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650/SR630 servers with one or more integrated Intel XXV710 NICs and Intel QuickAssist Technology (QAT). This solution also integrates OpenStack from Red Hat.
The Lenovo Intel Select Solution is workload-optimized infrastructure that simplifies and accelerates a CSP's selection and deployment of the hardware and software needed to support 5G and IoT. This solution is optimized specifically for packet processing, encryption, and compression-based NFV workloads.
