Case Study: Large American Carrier Service Provider achieves 100% orchestration and uninterrupted 5G cloud-edge visibility with NETSCOUT

Carrier Service Provider gains 100% Orchestration with Visibility at The 5G Cloud Edge

A large American carrier service provider preparing its network for the 5G cloud edge found that traditional dedicated COTS servers would not support the edge’s demands. The CSP needed extreme on‑demand agility, faster service and resource deployment, elastic scaling, and automated visibility to ensure uninterrupted service assurance at the 5G edge.

The CSP implemented NETSCOUT’s virtual RAN Flow Broker and InfiniStreamNG, integrating them into its virtual orchestration and relocating RAN cell trace elements to the cloud edge with built‑in redundancy. The solution delivered 100% orchestration visibility, lowered CAPEX by virtualizing RAN instruments, reduced OPEX via faster MTTR and dynamic resource allocation, and ensured availability of critical edge applications.
