PRESS RELEASE
Lots of the telecoms trade’s greatest names took to the stage at TM Discussion board’s Autonomous Networks (AN) Summit in Copenhagen to debate the taking autonomous networks to Degree 4
Trade leaders from Telefonica, Vodafone, China Cell, Zain, MTN, AIS, EANTC, and Huawei gathered on the Summit and delivered keynote speeches focussing on AN. They spoke to an viewers representing over 150 international operators, every in search of to be taught the most recent progress and achievements associated to Autonomous Networks.
From conceptual consensus to deployment at scale, AN has made nice progress after greater than 4 years of improvement. Over 14 operators the world over have launched their AN technique of reaching Degree 4 by 2025, with 70% anticipating to succeed in Degree 3 and past by 2025.
To drive the event and adoption of AN additional, TM Discussion board launched the AN Whitepaper 5.0 as a information for all operators to implement AN, with all of the audio system becoming a member of the Whitepaper launch ceremony on the Summit.
Aaron Boasman-Patel, the chair of the TM Discussion board AN Program, mentioned in his presentation: “We lately launched the AN Manifesto to speed up the adoption of autonomous networks and I’m delighted to see 31 massive CSP and vendor members turn into founding signatories in such a short while – this signifies the crucial position autonomous networks goes to play in CSPs operations. Moreover, we launched the brand new the AN Whitepaper R5.0, which noticed contributions by 64 companions. On this launch, we renewed the 4 Parts Methodology because the AN Framework (ANF), which can act because the AN Journey Information for operators whereas adopting.”

Juan Manuel Caro, Director Autonomous Networks of Telefonica, mentioned: “1) Agility, Intelligence, Effectivity, High quality, Sustainability are a set of Program Foundational Drivers guiding us in our Transformation journey, specializing in single autonomous use circumstances first and AI, then progressing to extra advanced , cross-domain use circumstances; 2) Defining an automation structure (Community Mind Coronary heart and methods of working) and hierarchy primarily based in AI algorithms embedded in each layer 3) Established government committee with our CTIO and we dedicated a 3-year plan with KPI primarily based on autonomous community and the autonomy and sustainability targets and high quality targets.”

Boonchoung Tansuthepverawongse, Head of Community knowledge and OSS Platform from AIS, mentioned in his presentation: “After one other 12 months of nice efforts, AIS is rarely wavering within the strategic aim of turning into a Cognitive Tech-Co to unleash digital buyer expertise excellence. Alongside this journey, AN have at all times performed a major position in forming the idea for enhancing community reliability, community high quality, operation effectivity and most significantly, boosting AIS enterprise development.”

Mohamed Salah, Head of community operation and transformation at MTN Group, mentioned: “MTN constantly making innovation by value-base automation program beneath MTN’s PACE technical technique. The eventualities (corresponding to NPS enchancment) are chosen with “services-networks-value streams” third-dimensional mannequin. So, we are able to enhance our AN degree and seize the worth autonomous networks throughout this evolution journey.”

Carsten Rossenhoevel, Co-Founder & CTO, EANTC mentioned: “Practical AN checks and assessments are an essential success issue for the event of the TM Discussion board Autonomous Networks ecosystem. EANTC and Huawei collectively accomplished the primary unbiased AN answer take a look at within the IP area.

Sam Wang, Common Supervisor of Huawei ADN Options mentioned: “Practices and applied sciences are the 2 core drivers for Autonomous Networks. Huawei will proceed to put money into the scenario-based options, root applied sciences corresponding to basis fashions, and enablement providers to drive the trade ahead. And the trade ought to be extra open and cooperative to construct a telecom basis mannequin to help richer enterprise software eventualities.”

Increasingly operators are exploring AN,and actively sharing their implementation expertise, serving to to unfold these essential classes throughout the trade. Undoubtedly, this type of sharing, dialogue and collaboration will encourage the true innovation and alter for paving the best way to extremely Autonomous Networks.
