Spirent Velocity is the most complete and automated LaaS solution. It orchestrates physical, virtual, and hybrid environments. It empowers DevOps workflows with continuous testing across multiple testbeds. Velocity cuts both capital and operating expenses via maximized equipment utilization, reduced test bed setup time, actionable management information, and minimized power consumption.
Pierre Frigon, Sr. Manager Systems Test at Calix, explains how Spirent enabled Calix to consolidate four labs into a single web accessible virtual lab which is available 24/7/365. Spirent Velocity was used to completely automate the Calix virtual lab environment, leading to a staggering 300x acceleration of testbed setup.
Spirent has partnered with Rahi Systems to expand its Lab as a Service (LaaS) solution suite with design, buildout, and integration services for lab environments. Together, Spirent and Rahi Systems bring a full-service portfolio to enable the Integration, Orchestration, and Networking required to create automated development and test environments. This solution, referred to as ION, saves millions in lab-related operating expenses and capital expenditure per year and optimizes key testing workflows from hours to minutes.
Our goals for the 5G Lab as a Service include automation of 5G lifecycle testing and more efficient sharing of physical and virtual test resources across teams. Spirent’s automation expertise and Lab as a Service platform, Spirent Velocity, have been critical to our successful deployment in Oulu. We expect to achieve significant acceleration of 5G lifecycle tests along with a substantial reduction in test infrastructure costs as we deploy 5G Lab as a Service throughout Nokia.”

Since implementing Spirent’s Velocity Lab as a Service, we have seen significant savings by reducing the time our engineers collectively spend per week on lab setup. Further, thanks to the usage metrics that the Spirent solution provides, we can now easily direct resources to equipment that is most in demand and ensure availability to our most important users. The result is improved workflow efficiencies that save money and time for our team, and even more importantly, translates into increased customer satisfaction.”

Velocity’s ability to set up testbeds quickly and efficiently has reduced our testbed set up time by over 90%, dramatically increasing our testing capacity. In addition, Velocity’s dashboards help us share equipment across teams more efficiently, reducing equipment costs substantially. Beyond these key benefits, we selected Velocity due to Spirent’s commitment to understanding our test automation goals and ability to achieve them.”
