Abstract
A service provider network migration system migrate services from a first network infrastructure to a second network infrastructure. A joined circuits dataset is created that associates circuits in the first network infrastructure with a service provided by the circuit and a customer receiving the service via the first network infrastructure. A product mappings dataset is created that maps each service in the first network infrastructure to at least one target service to be provided in the second network infrastructure. A migration sequencing server creates a migration plan according to the information in the datasets, and forecasts for customer migration rate and revenue generation for the target services are estimated. A provisioning server configures parameters for the circuits in the second network infrastructure via a network according to the migration plan to deploy the target services in the second network infrastructure.
