Cloud-native telco cloud technology is transforming fixed and mobile networks into a software-driven environment that is foundational for a new generation of enterprise and consumer services.
Cloud-native telco cloud is fundamental to the architecture and operation of the 5G network. The technology is also beginning to disrupt enterprise transport networks and will be critical to a unified vision of 6G. Operators are evaluating different paths towards cloud-native telco cloud as they seek to increase business agility, reduce operational costs using the power of AI-driven, cloud-native automation and drive new revenue by making telco cloud infrastructure available to industrial application developers at the edge.
Our research monitors operator and vendor progress towards cloud-native telco cloud adoption and provides unparalleled, in-depth analysis and forecasts of the telco cloud market, cloud-native automation, multi-cloud networking and enterprise edge opportunities. Our thought leadership in telco cloud is rooted in extensive surveys, customer projects, benchmarking studies and total cost of ownership analyses.
