The Nokia Bell Labs Consulting business case analysis modelling tool is unique. It takes a comprehensive approach to quantifying the effort savings related to designing, deploying, and operating data center networks. The tool models a migration scenario from a present mode of operation (PMO) to a future mode of operation (FMO). The PMO is an existing leaf-spine data center architecture using older generation commercial silicon, and models 10GE/25GE access for servers and 40GE/100GE uplinks for spines. The FMO is a higher scale and capacity leaf-spine data center fabric using the latest generation commercial silicon, and models 10GE/25GE/100GE access for servers and 100GE/400GE uplinks for spines... The tool models the tasks by job functions related to the lifecycle of a data center fabric across Day 0 design, Day 1 deployment, and Day 2+ operations. It calculates the operational effort savings by comparing the PMO against one of two FMO scenarios. FMO 1 is powered by Nokia SR Linux, a..
