With the AI for Telecom suite, Dell Technologies and NVIDIA equip CSPs to boost efficiency, improve customer experience and unlock new revenue streams The telecommunications sector is undergoing rapid transformation, …

Communications service providers (CSPs) are under mounting pressure to accelerate transformation—the high-level goals are to modernize infrastructure while also deploying a future-ready network, leverage automation to make operations more cost-effective, and diversify revenue streams by delivering new use cases to new markets. And while this idea of telecom transformation may seem clear on paper, it’s a difficult thing to do in the real world given the need to manage mounting technological complexity while also overhauling business and operating models.

As 5G networks continue to mature and scale, communications service providers (CSPs) are under pressure to improve performance, reduce downtime, and gain operational efficiency through network automation while also capturing new revenue streams. At the same time, advances in artificial intelligence (AI) are enabling powerful new opportunities for network optimization, predictive analytics, and service assurance.
