Hi, I am Faisal Khan. A Telco cloud enthusiast, who is passionate to write about anything Telco cloud: Technology, current issues, perspectives!
My quest through this blog would be to write something about some of those issues and topics that confront the readers; to share something from my “experience” that can help someone out there, seeking answers.
For my day job I work in Planning & Architecture for a Mobile Telco in the field of SDN, NFV and Transport.
Why you should read this blog ?
- This comes from my first hand experience with the technology in Telco environment.
- Not only do I speak from experience but I also have qualifications and certifications to support: from ONF, Openstack and MEF. Have a look here https://www.linkedin.com/in/faisalk1
- This is neither marketing fluff, nor a mouthpiece of a certain vendor !
So go ahead and join my journey by subscribing to my mail list by downloading the NFV mindmap at the home page and I will see you write there !

HI Faisal – Really appreciate sharing the information about DPDK vs SR-IOV. There is another technology for NFV performance enhancement based on Vector packet processing(VPP) by Cisco – https://wiki.fd.io/view/VPP/What_is_VPP%3F and https://my-vpp-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/overview/whatisvpp/what-is-vector-packet-processing.html.
We can write an article together.

Hi Faisal – Thanks for your great reference material. I’m new to the telco cloud space. One question I am trying to answer for my own understanding “in trying to organize the overlay landscape, what is a practical way of thinking about the different segments of overlay network types?”
Thanks,
Jerry

Dear Faisal,
I just read your 8 year old “Are you asking these Questions from potential MPLS-TP Vendors?” Its the most useful thing I have read in years regarding MPLS-TP. I work for a utility and I would love to have a little conversation regarding MPLS-TP vendors please.
Kindly write back, if possible with via mail.
Thank you for all the work, and also, thank you in advance
