The telecom industry continues to evolve, and end-users want more cloud-like network services—complete with self-service options, rapid service activation, and increased control and visibility. Communications service providers (CSPs) have collectively invested hundreds of billions of dollars in infrastructure to address these market requirements, but their reliance on legacy OSS and manual intervention in the service fulfillment process prevents them from meeting these needs—and constrains the return on their massive network investments.

To overcome these obstacles, CSPs need a fully automated orchestration solution that embraces open standards and cloud-native software design. In addition to accelerating network monetization, modern and programmable orchestration creates a strong foundation for innovation—including support for digital ecosystems, cloud migration, and important network-as-a-service (NaaS) use cases like 5G network slicing, SD-WAN, and bandwidth on demand.

Orchestration and automation


Blue Planet Orchestration (BPO) is a suite of open standards-based and vendor-agnostic product applications that helps CSPs improve customer experience, increase network monetization, and reduce OPEX. BPO enables NaaS-like service experiences by automating service delivery—including critical design, configuration, and activation processes—end to end across highly complex multi-vendor, multi-layer, and hybrid multi-cloud networks.

BPO consists of three modular software products that can be deployed individually to address specific automation needs or in combination to fully automate the order-to-service process:

BPO product applications run on the modern Cloud Native Platform (CNP), a converged OSS that also integrates Blue Planet Inventory (BPI) and Assurance (BPA) applications to automate the entire service lifecycle and simplify digital transformation. BPO is also fully integrated with Blue Planet’s state-of-the-art AI Studio to accelerate the adoption of AI-guided service fulfillment operations.

Features and benefits

No. 1

Speed monetization and ROI

Zero-touch intent-based service orchestration accelerates ROI and time to revenue by eliminating the OPEX, delays, and errors associated with manual intervention in the service fulfillment process.

No. 2

Streamline cloud evolution

BPO runs on the advanced Kubernetes-based Blue Planet CNP and is easily deployed in private and public clouds—including AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud—and in hybrid multi-cloud environments.

No. 3

Productized and customizable

Our fully productized BPO suite has a committed feature roadmap and release schedule—and CSPs and their system integration partners can easily customize it using an advanced Integrated Development Environment (IDE).

No. 4

Unleash NaaS innovation

BPO supports a broad set of open APIs as well as end-to-end vendor-agnostic service automation that enables innovative NaaS business models and services, including high-value on-demand services.
