Neusoft Telecom BSS*, VMware Virtualized Application Performance

Neusoft Telecom BSS* application on Intel® Xeon® processor 7500 series-based servers in a virtualized environment

Neusoft is the leading IT solutions and services provider in China. The Neusoft Telecom BSS (Business Support System)* application is a traditional BSS solution targeting large-scale telecom operators. This paper discusses how Intel and Neusoft took advantage of the performance and scalability of Intel® Xeon® processor 7500 series-based servers to address some of the critical challenges in the telecom industry.

Challenges

The telecom industry serves one of the fastest growing and most competitive markets in China. To meet the needs of an already enormous user base and to compete effectively for new customers, China telecom operators need:
• High-quality and high-performance solutions that can scale easily to meet growing needs.
• Solutions that are cost-effective, easy to manage, and easy to maintain to enable low total cost of ownership (TCO).
• Reliable solutions to ensure high-quality service.

Solution

To help their telecom customers meet these challenges more effectively, Neusoft collaborated with Intel to optimize the Neusoft Telecom BSS solution stack. Intel engineers worked closely with Neusoft engineers to define a virtualized reference architecture based on the Intel Xeon processor 7500 series and Intel® Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT). Neusoft constructed the entire BSS architecture based on two four-socket Intel Xeon processor 7500 series-based servers. The hypervisor used was build #186700 of VMware ESX Server 4.0* and the guest OS was Red Hat Enterprise Linux* 5.4 x86-64.
