By De Fu Li, Comcast Jay Zhu, Comcast Berkay Aygun, Comcast Daniel Rice, Comcast Mody Niv, Comcast Suketu Bhatt, Comcast Andrey Skvirsky, Comcast

In this paper, we discussed the background, limitations and challenges of operating the PCMM at scale. We also discussed our proposed new solution at Comcast – the “vCMTS as a service” APIs which not only simplifies our end-to-end system, serves as a scalable, secure, extensible, and lightweight alternative to the PCMM, but also creates new growth opportunities for us to explore in dynamic QoS, service mobility, on-demand microtransaction use cases, and beyond. With the CAMARA project as the North star and our edge compute platform as the foundation, the "vCMTS as a service" solution is one of our incremental products for bridging our most advanced network technologies with our customers' needs.
