Software-Defined Networking

(SDN/SD-Access)

Nio Stars Technologies is leading the charge towards Software Defined Networks by partnering closely with Cisco’s Business Unit on Software Defined Access (SD-Access).
Cisco® Software-Defined Access (SD-Access), built on Cisco’s Digital Network Architecture (Cisco DNA™), provides a transformational shift in building and managing networks. Nio Stars Technologies’s services help unlock the full potential of Cisco SD-Access to improve business efficiency and accelerate the launch of business services.
Nio Stars Technologies services for Cisco SD-Access includes a full lifecycle of services such as: proof of concept, advisory and architecture, implementation, training, optimization, and operations support services.
As organizations embark on the journey to refresh their campus networks, they need a trusted partner to help them understand the intricacies of this complex technology, lay out a path to successful implementation of the solution, and enable operations teams.
Nio Stars Technologies has worked closely with Cisco architects to develop the architectural blueprint for deployment of SD-Access technology while the technology was still evolving. Nio Stars Technologies’s deep expertise in network architecture and network security can help you make the right decisions during design and implementation of SD-Access. With our vast experience in network and security operations, Nio Stars Technologies is well-positioned to assist you with the convergence of Network Operations (NetOps) and Security Operations (SecOps) that has become a reality with the advent of Cisco SD-Access.

Advisory and Architecture Services

Transition from traditional network technologies to SDN requires strategic technology review and careful planning.
Niostars Technologies can help you with:

   • Defining an implementation roadmap

SDN Proof of Concept Services

With any transformational technology, we advise customers to start with a pilot implementation to enable the IT organization to understand impact of the technology, absorb intricacies of the solution, and internalize operational processes.
Niostars Technologies can help you with implementation of SDN in a limited fashion:
    • Assisting with operational processes
    • Identifying key success factors for the limited deployment
    • Defining specific use cases that represent business goals
    • Designing and implementing the solution
    • Reviewing current problems
    • Assisting with verification of use cases

SDN Optimization Services

Is your SDN solution keeping up with your business needs? You may need assistance of an expert to identify any issues that may become bottlenecks in future. Partner with Niostars Technologies to ensure that your technology investments are future-proof.
We help with the following:
    • Reviewing current deployment architecture
    • Reviewing operational processes
    • Reviewing business requirements and performing gap analysis
    • Reviewing current problems
    • Identifying potential performance issues and other bottlenecks
    • Providing recommendations and creating a plan of action

SDN Implementation Services

Our implementation methodology is based on a consultative approach that ensures successful implementation of technology solutions with resiliency, reliability, and scalability. Implementation of SDN requires solid expertise in advanced network protocols, network security, and automation. Take advantage Niostars Technologies expertise and experience with implementation of your Cisco SD-Access solution.

SDN Training Services
 

IT staff have their hands full with upkeep and maintenance of their existing network infrastructure. When an organization embarks on implementation of revolutionary technologies like SDN, management expects that existing IT staff manage the new network after some training.

Traditional training, in-person or virtual, is often forgotten quickly and does not yield expected results. Niostar Technologies takes a different approach to help IT staff understand the concepts, and gain operational experience working closely with expert staff.
