Orchestration We implemented the inter-carrier slice orchestration using 4 different technology stacks going from the access portal to the CRM, the network slice design and the VNF instantiation. This Vendors kind of interaction among different technologies enables the realisation of on demand network slices going across geographies, countries and continents. The common set of information (Catalogs, SLA, KPIs, etc. ) shared among operators allow the interaction. We believe this setup is the future way to manage customer dedicated Network slices, therefore not only applicable to the eHealth use case but potentially to every other business vertical (Automotive, Industry 4.0, IoT, etc.).
