ServiceIQ

Alianza’s ServiceIQ is a comprehensive cloud-native automation and deployment platform designed for communication service providers (CSPs). It enables efficient Continuous Integration / Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) of software updates and service configurations through GitOps pipelines. Built to support large-scale deployments of virtualized and cloud-native network functions (VNFs/CNFs), ServiceIQ empowers operators with the tools needed to streamline operations, reduce errors, and accelerate innovation. ServiceIQ integrates advanced analytics, customizable dashboards, and progressive deployment workflows to ensure high service availability and operational agility. It is particularly valuable in environments with thousands of hosts across multiple sites, where manual operations would be inefficient and error-prone.

Features

• CI/CD Toolchain: Enables rapid test and release cycles for network function software updates and service configurations.
