Network DisaggregationBut that’s where RtBrick comes in. RtBrick has pioneered network disaggregation for telcos - separating routing hardware from software. RtBrick's routing software turns bare-metal switches into fully functional IP/MPLS carrier routers. The software runs in a container on a Linux operating system on your choice of switch. And a ‘cloud-native’ approach to operations allows these switches to be deployed with zero touch provisioning and run at the same low cost-points as cloud infrastructure. As an example, Deutsche Telekom, Europe's largest carrier, is using RtBrick software and bare-metal-switches to provide its the BNG (Broadband Network Gateway) in its next generation access network.
