Telco Cloud and Network Automation Intelligence Service

The need for automation in telecom networks is increasing, and tools used ad hoc can become part of an organizationwide strategy. Ansible follows this trend and is increasingly penetrating telecom networks.

This tracker product covers telco use of public cloud to host network functions and telco-specific software and applications.

This second edition of Omdia’s Telco Network and Service Automation Market Tracker Report extends our coverage to Artificial Intelligence for Network Operations (AIOps). 

Omdia’s Telco Network Cloud Tracker assesses the scale of cloud infrastructure in delivering telcos’ core network functionalities through virtualized network functions (VNFs) and cloud-native network functions (CNFs).

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) became a very popular term in the telecommunications industry a decade ago. SDN promised to revolutionize the way networks were designed, managed, and operated by providing a centralized approach to network control and management. The concept of SDN was based on the separation of the control plane from the data plane (or forwarding plane), allowing network administrators to program and manage their networks more efficiently and programmatically.

Covers the evolution of NFV from VM-based deployments to today’s CaaS architecture, based on K8s. Provides recommendations for CSPs regarding the use of public cloud to complement private cloud and why vendors must rearchitect their NFs.
