THE CHALLENGE
Service providers, enterprises and NEMs contend with formidable time-to-market lead-time challenges throughout the development of a network product or service. The exhaustive testing required to ensure performance, availability, security and scalability (the PASS Methodology) is a major source of these delays, but required to assure quality and reliability. In virtual and cloud environments, these concerns are critical.
Budgets and release deadlines continue to tighten. Products and services continue to expand in complexity. As a result, a majority of organizations struggle with the exacting physical, operational and testing requirements at each stage of the development life cycle. These requirements present obstacles that can impede productive and timely testing. Industry experts observe, and lab managers coping with cutting edge testing recognize, that Infrastructure Test Optimization (ITO) is the evolving field where maximized testing solutions are being defined. The challenge is choosing the right solutions that perform on all levels, shorten time to market while reducing CAPEX and OPEX, and leverage existing investments.
