The "Titanium Cloud Ecosystem" program ensures that users receive solutions with maximum interoperability, which can help service providers accelerate the time to market for new services and help telecom equipment manufacturers accelerate the deployment of NFV infrastructure. Under this ecosystem program, Wind River has worked with Dell EMC and Saguna to promote MEC (Mobile Edge Computing) as a new business opportunity for the telecommunications industry. Under this partnership program, Dell EMC servers and Saguna MEC middleware have been pre-integrated and verified on the Titanium Cloud platform. By further expansion, the solutions formed by this partner program have also been pre-verified with many other components, providing a rigorously verified end-to-end solution covering multiple levels of the NFV architecture.

Meanwhile, Wind River's Wind River Titanium Edge SX won the "Best New Open Source Product" award. This product can help service providers effectively launch a wide range of edge hosting applications and achieve the highest level of CAPEX and OPEX savings. Its best feature is the full implementation of carrier-grade security with an agile single server configuration. Titanium Edge SX integrates control, computing, and storage nodes into an integrated software package, which can be deployed in a "simplex" configuration, that is, on a single low-cost physical server. This is an integrated NFV infrastructure solution designed to meet the stringent "never downtime" requirements of the telecommunications industry.

The "2017 SDN/NFV World Summit" was held by Layer123 in The Hague, Netherlands in October 2017. The awards presented during the event were collectively named "Network Transformation Awards" to recognize products and services that have made important contributions to the transformation of the telecommunications network industry to the next generation, especially SDN and NFV. The award review team is hired from the analyst partners of the SDN NFV Conference. The award review process strives to be open and transparent to ensure that the winning products and services have the highest credibility and level, so that the winning organizations have the highest confidence to demonstrate their leading position and achievements and guide users to make the most assured decisions. The list of award-winning organizations includes semiconductor leaders such as Intel, well-known telecommunications operators such as Telstra, and telecommunications equipment manufacturers such as Huawei, while Wind River is a typical representative of telecommunications infrastructure platform software.
