New paradigms around infrastructure automation and software development are guiding the cloud-native reinvention of Orange
Change is afoot in the telecom industry as the move to cloud-native operating and technological principles push and pull operators into new paradigms. With a renewed sense of conviction about...
The Dell PowerEdge R7615 features AMD x86 cloud-native CPUs for telco cloud and network in power- and space-constrained environments
At the recent Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, a primary theme was the accelerating cloudification of telco networks in the move to 5G Standalone and decentralization...
DISH Wireless EVP Eben Albertyn on lessons learned from building and operating a cloud native 5G Standalone Open RAN network
After more than a decade of strategic spectrum acquisition, and given the regulatory go-ahead related to the T-Mobile US acquisition of Sprint, DISH Wireless has...
Think Joe Pesci in My Cousin Vinny: "What is a git anyways?"
The move to 5G Standalone is afoot, and operators are working out the kinks of instantiating network slices tuned to the needs of particular end user applications. In the broader move...
The move 5G Standalone and cloud native requires an overhaul of technology stack and organizational workflows
While the industry is already beating the 6G drum, there’s still a lot left to do with 5G. The move to 5G Standalone (SA) and leveraging a cloud-native core...
A cloud-native architecture allows operators to build and run scalable applications in public, private and hybrid clouds environments
Ericsson and Google Cloud are jointly developing a cloud RAN solution on Google Distributed Cloud (GDC) to help communications service providers (CSPs) optimize RAN infrastructure and get...
To keep up with growing network complexity, telcos are applying automation techniques enabled by AI and ML in as many network operations as possible
As 5G continues to evolve, it also continues to become more complex. Virtualization and disaggregation are happening in tandem with deployment...
A couple years ago T-Mobile US acquired Sprint with the help of Dish Network who wanted to get into wireless themselves. Word was, Dish was going to become the fourth largest wireless provider. We expected to see them rapidly building 5G throughout the country,...
Just as the evolution of the smart phone was enabled by the transition from 3G to 4G, use cases for connected devices will evolve with 5G. There will be connected appliances, connected cars, connected factories and even connected cities that will each require the...
The most significant role of telecommunications companies is keeping people connected: keeping companies in touch with clients globally, keeping colleagues in sync while working from home, and keeping relatives in contact. During the COVID-19 crisis, this role has become even more evident and crucial....
Samsung’s 5G vRAN, virtual core, MEC, and management and analytics will be central to the collaboration
Samsung will deliver 5G network solutions built on Red Hat's hybrid cloud portfolio, including Red Hat OpenShift, Red Hat OpenStack Platform, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform and Red Hat...
Getting to the 5G future requires much more than just upgrading existing networks. Operators need a cohesive roadmap for moving to a virtualized, software-defined infrastructure. Operational excellence will be hinged on OSS/BSS transformation to take advantage of automation and real-time data analysis.
To translate those...
  The vision of 5G is cloud-native networks automatically delivering capacity on-demand. The reality, however, is that most operators are taking an incremental approach to cloudification and trying to understand where to direct capex given the need for holistic modernization in addition to...
In the evolution of next generation mobile architectures, much of the focus is understandably on 5G New Radio – primarily, how much faster it will be than today’s 4G access and what kind of bandwidth-intensive services can be supported because of that. But deeper...
In Hillsboro, Oregon, Verizon is running a trial that it says is both an industry first and a glimpse of its network's future: a fully cloud-native, container-based element of its Evolved Packet Core, operating on its live network and serving customers.
The proof-of-concept trial with...
