There are podcasts, and there are podcasts... This episode with Pardeep Kohli, CEO of Mavenir is a uniquely candid account of the state not only of #OpenRAN, but also other efforts to #transform #telecom into a growth business by leveraging #software, #cloudnative, #AI...and an unfamiliar #mindset. It's frank and impassioned, from a true industry leader and pioneer, and this 40-minute episode makes for an important listen for #CSPs, #regulators and #vendors aspiring to bring about real change in telecom. Companies referenced include Nokia and Ericsson, NVIDIA, DISH Network/Boost Mobile among many others.

The combination of #AI technology and the vast amounts of #data available in #telecom #Networks seems like a perfect match, and is one that continues to attract innovators. Throw in some disruptive industry ideas like #eBPF and you can see how terms like "revolutionary", "redefining" and "transformational" might actually be justified in the mid-2020s. Yet truly understanding the experience that customers are having, and how to adjust networks to improve it, never goes out of fashion. Our latest research profile looks at the progress that relative newcomer Canopus is making as it seeks to bring new levels of intelligence, performance and control to networks - especially where #DPI is no longer an option. And now with the advisory support of a well-known former VMware exec on board... [paywall/free on subscription] #AI #Observability #AIOps

Whether traveling or staying put over the holidays, we all no doubt took our ability to keep in touch for granted.

And if #telcos and networks are transforming, so must the processes and approaches used to test them - all the way from vendor and #CSP labs through to live operations. It's a topic we explore in our latest #podcast, with Anil Kollipara of Spirent Communications. 🎧 Apple podcasts - https://lnkd.in/e-68QC6y 🎧 Spotify podcasts - https://lnkd.in/ekKEPggH 🎧 Direct & more episodes - https://lnkd.in/e_d9B6JG

The journey to #autonomousnetworks is typically presented a staircase - yet the step from Level 3 to Level 4 is unlike any of the others. For most #CSPs, it is more of a #chasm that must be bridged. In an extensive new #free-to-read whitepaper, Francis Haysom concludes our #Network #Autonomy Chasm series with a detailed analysis of how to cross the chasm using essential new concepts, understandings, working practices, and technologies. Includes a conversation with Wouter De Borger, co-founder of #intent-based #service #orchestration vendor Inmanta. https://lnkd.in/eFg7fHkk
