UNEXT: Network-application symbiosis
Network-application symbiosis is one of the key capabilities of the Unified Networking Experience Technology (UNEXT) vision. Its realization requires the exploration and development of technologies that enable immediate accommodation of the application session and preserve the satisfaction of its requirements through all contextual transitions. All symbiotic solutions pair the distributed realization of their functional capabilities with their centralized exposure. As a result of the symbiotic relationship, the UNEXT system provides every application with a run-time platform that has a dedicated, custom-tailored composition of compute and network capabilities. The application, in turn, generates new revenue opportunities for the UNEXT provider.
