I.ETICS Industrial Workshop, 29th NOvember 2012, Massy, France

The ETICS industrial workshop on “Tomorrow’s Internet: Smarter, Faster, Fairer?” was successfully organized in Paris/Massy in France on the 29th November 2012. About 60 persons joined the workshop, representing multiple network operators (BT, DT, Orange, Telenor, Telefonica), Telecom equipment and software vendors (ALU, Cisco, Juniper, Thales, 6WIND, Marben Products, Nextworks), Over the top providers (Akamai, Google,OVH/Oxalya).

During the lunch, the ETICS partners offered the possibility to participants to discuss around 8 different demonstrations, validating different aspects of the overall ETICS system (click on the links to see a short datasheet of each presented demos):

  • Inter-Carrier ETICS-Testbed - Alcatel-Lucent Bell Labs, DT,Marben, Nextworks, Primetel, Orange, Telefonica
  • Define your virtual private network – Marben
  • Control plane cooperation using Hierarchical Traffic Engineering – Orange
  • Application connectivity On Demand using SEFA - DT
  • Business Intelligence for SLA negotiation – Alcatel-Lucent Bell Labs
  • Penalty Sharing – Institut Telecom
  • Path Computation Element and Service Plane - Nextworks, Alcatel-Lucent, Telefonica
  • Network passive Monitoring - FTW

II.ETICS Booth at the MPLS Congress, 19-22 March 2013, Paris, France

The MPLS & Ethernet Congress World Congress is a worldwide major event for the Telecom and Internet industry. It is the first worldwide event in the MPLS & Ethernet area. The 2013 event attracted more than 1200 participants, with service providers making up more than 50% of the audience and a growing international presence. For more global information on the event, please visit the Upper Side web site:

ETICS was present at the exhibition of the MPLS congress with a dedicated booth. During the event, we have presented most implemented components of the ETICS core system, focusing in particular on the ASQ path composition amongst multiple Network Service Providers in Push and Pull modes.
We received a lot of positive feedbacks from network operators (Telecom Italia, Belgacom, Mobistar, Orange, DT, etc.) and vendors (Cisco, Huawei, Ericsson, Telco Systems, MRV, Metanoia, etc.), and people were very pleased to discuss solutions looking a bit ahead from current practices.

The problem is now perceived as really important for a lot of companies present at the MPLS congress, and we are pretty sure that we will hear about “ETICS-like” solutions in the coming years.
