+This is HPR episode 2007-185 entitled, What in UCP, It is hosted by A.N.U.B. and in about
+7 minutes long, and Karimanec's visit flag, the summary is a short talk on telco networking
+standards.

+Good day.
+My name is JWP, and today I want to talk to you about a topic that I found at the Linux
+Open Networking Conference in Amsterdam.
+Ken Fallon was nice enough to get me a press pass for this event.
+I want to talk to you about UCPE and what is it?
+It stands for Universal Customer Primus Equipment, little U, capital C, capital P, capital E.
+It's getting a lot of tension, but what is it?
+UCPE consists of a software virtual network functions, which are VNFs, which I covered
+in a prior podcast, running on standard operating system hosted on a cloud server.
+The ideal CPE deployment supports multi-vendor multi-component construction, such as U, CPE,
+and brings the power of the cloud to the telco network, and is a gateway to innovation.
+Service proprietors such as AT&T and Verizon use U, CPE as a way to gain full benefits of
+the NFV.
+These benefits include separation of network appliances to ensure hardware and software
+components from multiple vendors.
+Using off-the-shelf cots, capital C, capital O, capital T, capital S, servers to ride the
+cost curves, using a mix of open source and commercial software components, and providing
+partnership with customers and suppliers.
+That's the short version.
+There's several talks, so it looks like U, CPE is the after version of VCP, which was
+virtual CPE gateway to NFX success, and UCP attributes, and there's a lot of benefits
+for why service proprietors need to use universal CPE.
+They're saying that it's just disruptive technology, and I clicked on the link, and it comes
+up with some fidget-to-routers that use this technology, and it's here.
+So again, the universal CPE or UCP is one of the most compelling use cases of the network
+function virtualization or NVF, currently attracting interest of hosted service providers.
+UCP provides a remotely manageable platform on which hosted service providers can easily
+deploy, modify, or delete VNS over a wide area networks or wands.
+Audio-COTUS UPC platform integrates, and Intel server module, which can run multiple
+UCPs and conjunctions with embedded physical network functions or PNF required for both
+hosted business and communications, and so basically you have a networking thing with
+Intel CPU in it, and the benefits of it is that it's remotely manageable and simple
+life operation and reduces op-PEX, and it's a single platform that holds multiple NFS.
+So that's what these guys are selling, and so basically it's just a way to manage
+your UNF is what I get from it.
+If you look at the slides from the summit, it's sort of like you can have a company that
+uses this technology and you sort of sell services or products to the host provider.
+So this is sort of like a little micro industry, so again, UCP consists of software virtual
+network functions, which VNS, if you talked about earlier, running on a standard operating
+system hosted on an open server, an ideal UCP deployment supports multi-vendor, multi-book
+component construction, such as UCP brings the power of the cloud to the telco network,
+and is a gateway to innovation.
+So it's basically the same thing on all the pages, on all the pages, so that's what it
+is.
+For me, it's something, of course, all of these technologies are really, really brand new,
+and you only started seeing them in about 2017 in any of the articles, so mostly articles
+are spring and summer of 2018 on the internet about it.
+All right, hey, so this includes my UCP thing, and again, it sort of works on top of V
+and F, and it's the UCP is the next generation of VCP.
+All right, hey, thank you so much for your time.
