As telco networks evolve, some telcos are guided by the vision of a cloud-native telco network that can give full observability, assurance, flexibility and lifecycle management of network functions.
Some are coming to the realisation that what they are really building towards is a horizontal compute infrastructure that can support workloads including their own network functions, third party and partner workloads such as AI.
This report will update on a crucial moment in telco network development and strategies, as telcos seek to establish the platforms that will enable them to operate, innovate and partner in more efficient, flexible and forward-looking manner.
It will be a fascinating narrative on where telco networks stand now, and how the promise of the cloud could liberate or capture value for the telco.
Topics include:
Drivers: Monetisation and business models:
- API exposure, “AI factories” and adoption of AI workloads within the telco cloud.
- 5G SA and new service capabilities
Cloud-Native Requirements: a to-do list
- Automation, observability, assurance
- Adoption of automation frameworks for cloud-native functions lifecycle
- Telco-led projects such as Nephio and Project Sylva
Where are we now?
- Looking back and, importantly, forward to telco cloud-native strategies.
