Ensemble Cloudlet clusters multiple
Connector nodes into a single cloud
A single, multi-node cloud that deploys as easily as uCPE
Ensemble Cloudlet – available Q2 2023

Cloudlet is simple
• ZTP nodes into service – low-skill-level teams can do it
• Deploys from the same MANO as uCPE
• Cloud scales up easily
Cloudlet is resilient
• Redundant local cloud controllers
• Redundant management access to each node
• Clustered and virtualized local storage
• Policies migrate workloads between servers
Cloudlet is optimized for cost
• Automatic, remote encrypted management access
• Migration capabilities reduce application licensing and
core usage
• More cost-effective than data center cloud solutions

Hybrid workloads at the customer site
From uCPE to edge computing
• Service providers use uCPE to deliver managed
network services at the customer premises
• These on-premises clouds unlock new revenue -
hosting enterprise IT workloads
• Providers are now deploying hybrid workloads at
the on-premises edge:
• Managed networking services and
• Customer-managed IT applications or non-networking
workloads
uCPE paved the way for on-premises edge computing

Why enterprises need managed edge computing
Service providers have the opportunity
1. Users need to run applications at the edge for many reasons:
• Reduce backhaul costs – e.g., for video surveillance data reduction
• Reduce latency – e.g., for demanding applications like 5G and AR/VR
• Security and privacy – e.g., to meet data sovereignty requirements
• Need for “always-on” cloud – even during loss of network connectivity
2. Many businesses are trending to opex models
3. Service providers leveraging a common on-premises cloud have
a lower cost than hyperscaler edge services
4. Service providers can bundle (or upsell) managed network
services with edge computing
Edge computing plays to service providers’ strengths

Ensemble Cloudlet advantages
1. End user savings. VNF migration can save end user from
needing to purchase dual VNF licenses. Total cloud view at site
2. Efficient. Smaller number of cores and less memory consumed
3. Span. Orchestrated services can span multiple compute nodes
4. Automated HA. With VNF migration policies between nodes
5. Visibility. Provides cloud-level view or management of the site,
or service topology at the site
6. Simpler. HA and inter-node services are orchestrated and do not
need to be manually configured outside of the cloud
7. Compute nodes have a smaller footprint. Making more
resources available for applications
