Hi everyone

I don't this is anything new. At MPLSworld 2018 I saw at least 4-5 
different re-implementations of NSI, most typically in the disguise of 
providing WAN solutions for companies across multiple providers, and I've 
seen this a couple of other places as well.

Cisco even has a decidecated product/service for this multi-provider WAN. 
It was presented at Cisco NSO days in June this year. Presentation here: 
https://community.cisco.com/t5/nso-developer-hub-documents/nso-devdays-2019-marcus-hacke-s-keynote-sd-wan-as-a-service/ta-p/3875913

Don't let the ngena label fool you, it's Cisco :-). This one in particular 
requires buy-in on the Cisco XR and NSO platform to participate (as usual 
Cisco is at the forefront of developing business models), but there other 
solutions that are more vendor agnostic, but often the protocol isn't 
particularly well-defined, as the solutions have been more goal focussed.
