Network Services Platform
Automate, manage and control IP and optical networks
Our Network Services Platform (NSP) helps you automate your IP and optical networks to simplify your operations, respond quickly to fast-changing demand, get the most from your resources and ensure maximum service performance and reliability.
NSP answers your need for more responsive, efficient and reliable IP networks with:
- A complete suite of ready-to-use applications that help your network operations teams cover all use cases for network management, orchestration and control
- An SDN resource controller that lets your network engineering teams control the network and optimize traffic in real time
- An open programmable platform that enables your engineers and developers to automate network operations and ease integration with orchestrators and operations support systems (OSS)

Trust the leaders
More than 900 network operators globally deployed NSP to simplify their operations.
Leverage Nokia experience gained across the management and control of hundreds of modern networks from all around the world.
"In order for SDN to mean we can really improve our customer experience and impact our network economics, we need approaches that consider the real-time state of the network and relate it to the requirements of the service we provide. Doing so allows us to assure performance, and optimise resource usage across all our network layers. Tightly coupling service requirements and performance with network control, as in NSP, promises to deliver real-world benefits of centralised optimisation whilst exploiting the strength of our existing distributed network."
"We applaud NOKIA's initiatives to bring closed-loop automation to networks, and to help apply these modern methods to the large installed base of technology - achieving business transformation even ahead of underlying technology transformation"
