tangible deployments that are already transforming telecom infrastructures across Europe. The key is a practical framework that moves beyond abstract concepts to deliver concrete results.
“ Our‘ Sense, Think, Act’ framework, combined with the Autonomous Network Fabric, is key to this,” Erez states.“ This framework allows operators to gain 360-degree network observability [‘ Sense’], leverage AI for informed decision-making [‘ Think’] and implement closed-loop automation driven by business intent [‘ Act’].”
The framework is not just a marketing slogan, it is a blueprint for action that delivers measurable improvements. Erez highlights a partnership with Telenor, where Nokia is“ working to improve multi-vendor orchestration and assurance, enabling them to confidently advance their AN capabilities without adding complexity.” It demonstrates a critical capability: the ability to layer intelligent automation over existing, heterogeneous environments.
The results are compelling and speak directly to the business priorities of CSPs.“ The results are evident in tangible improvements: Telstra, for instance, can now set up new orchestration domains in under 48 hours, significantly accelerating time-to-market for new services,” Erez reveals.
The dramatic reduction in provisioning time is a breakthrough, allowing operators to respond to market demands with unprecedented agility. Furthermore, sustainability has emerged as a major driver for automation in Europe.
