Service-resilient operation of your Altiplano SDAN (Software Defined Access Network) platform as a managed service
Operating modern PON networks is becoming increasingly demanding: growing infrastructure, rising customer expectations and complex systems now require more than traditional operating models. The introduction of SDN platforms such as Nokia Altiplano, combined with AI (artificial intelligence) and ML (machine learning), is creating new opportunities - but also new requirements. How can this complexity be mastered without building up your own operating capacities? Managed Altiplano provides a turnkey answer.
With Managed Altiplano, you ensure maximum network stability, reduced operating costs and the highest service quality - without having to set up additional internal operating structures.
At the heart of our Managed Altiplano services is a fully managed platform consisting of the Nokia Altiplano Access Controller, operated on a Kubernetes container infrastructure with dedicated compute, RAM and storage. A multi-redundant network and security architecture ensures high availability and reliable protection.
Modularly expandable - if required, we can seamlessly scale the platform with additional resources or functions. The service level agreement (SLA) defines clear operating times and response obligations, 8×5 as standard, optionally 24/7.
What is Nokia Altiplano simply explained?
Nokia Altiplano is a central control platform for access networks.
It can be used to control various technologies such as:
Nokia Altiplano can be planned, set up and operated via a single interface.
Instead of operating many individual systems, everything is bundled in Altiplano.
What is the Managed Altiplano Service?
The Managed Altiplano Service means that the Nokia Altiplano platform is provided as a ready-made service - and Xantaro takes over the complete technical operation.
What exactly is Xantaro doing?

The platform runs in the customer's data centre (on-premises).
Data sovereignty, system access and infrastructural control remain entirely with the operator.
Is the solution scalable?
Yes.
The platform is based on modern container technology (e.g. Kubernetes) and is flexibly scalable.
It grows with your network - whether small or large.
Does Altiplano only work with Nokia technology?
No.
The platform supports open standards and is also suitable for multi-vendor environments.
Which networks can be operated with it?
