Enea, Advantech and SDNbucks to Simplify SD-WAN and Enterprise Networking on uCPE

Enea together with uCPE supplier Advantech and SDNbucks, an OTT global managed service provider announced a collaboration to simplify procurement and provisioning of enterprise network services including SD-WAN. A broad catalogue of managed services, built on a common and scalable infrastructure platform, will be made available globally through SDNbucks as a single supplier interface.
The collaboration aims at providing customers with choice and flexibility by eliminating much of the time-consuming work needed to source, onboard, and validate VNFs and NFV infrastructure. Managed services for enterprise networking, including SD-WAN, security and virtual router applications are delivered in partnership with leading VNF vendors. The NFV infrastructure (NFVI) is comprised of Advantech's line of white box appliances based on Intel® Architecture, and Enea NFV Access, a cloud-native uCPE virtualization platform. Together they form a complete NFVi solution with zero touch provisioning, scaling from entry-level to high-performance devices.
