Verizon operates an enormous infrastructure in support of its telecommunication business. The talk focuses on learnings from building and operating parts of this architecture using open source technologies, and virtualizing workloads that have traditionally been appliances and physical network functions.

The architectural choices made in constructing this environment reflect a long term investment in, and a highly opinionated view of the evolution of computing trends.

The talk describes the architecture of the Verizon Cloud Platform which offers a computing infrastructure for core, edge, and far edge services. The talk addresses key considerations in arriving at this architecture, and the evolution of the architecture over time.

In addition, the talk also describes key application design, architecture, and deployment considerations, and will feature a demonstration.
