| QoS can be achieved by explicitly reserving bandwidth on the network or by providing preferential service to selected network traffic while providing best-effort service to all other traffic. This requires moving from best-effort service creation and verification to a full-service management model, where cost-effective, protected, edge-to-edge services can support bandwidth provisioning and varied quality of service guarantees negotiated with each customer. With billions of dollars riding on contracts, outsourcers can no longer depend on best-effort service delivery. |
