CREATE Your Future in Networks and Applications!

Overview

Network Softwarization encompasses technologies that are transforming how network and computing infrastructures are designed and operated to deliver services and applications with greater versatility, agility and cost effectiveness. Network Softwarization technologies provide the foundation for the 5G network architecture that will support future mobile, broadband, and IoT applications.

Objective

Network Softwarization requires an entirely new set of skills from the engineers that design and operate networks. The objective of the NetSoft CREATE training program is to meet this critical need in the Canadian telecom industry. Our goal is to prepare graduates with a fundamental understanding and practical experience in SDN and NFV along with the communication and teamwork skills that allow them to integrate smoothly and contribute immediately to the success of Canadian companies.

Technologies

SDN

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) enables faster innovation by making the network programmable.

NFV

Network Function Virtualization (NFV) allows network equipment, such as routers, firewalls, and intrusion detection systems, to be replaced with software running on commodity hardware.

MANO

Management and Orchestration (MANO) systems enable the real-time provisioning of network functions.

APPLICATIONS

5G Networks, Internet of Things, Cloud Computing, Edge Computing
