Working through the customer’s requirements
I contributed to Swisscom’s proposal for a major enterprise multi-domain service orchestration programme. The customer wanted to move from legacy network and service representations to a fully modelled network, covering provisioning, inventory and migration across several technical domains.
I represented Swisscom during a five-day technical dialogue with the customer. We discussed their requirements and how the proposed solution would handle network-element modelling, zero-touch installation, security zones and service provisioning.
Architecture and demonstrations
My contribution covered orchestration architecture, migration concepts, requirements analysis and compliance responses. I also worked on API and CI/CD integration, technical demonstrations and plans for operating the proposed system.
I helped design and demonstrate orchestration concepts involving hundreds of live IP/MPLS services and network-element configurations. The demonstrations showed how these could move from legacy representations towards a fully modelled network.
The proposal outcome
Swisscom did not win the contract. My work on this programme covered the proposal, customer dialogue and demonstrations; it did not progress into a Swisscom production deployment.
The customer is unnamed, and commercial and proprietary implementation details are omitted.
