As networks become more complex, telcos need an integrated platform to manage monitoring, diagnostics, and automation. Prodapt worked with AWS to build a cloud-native, open-source network assurance platform called NeSA. It provides a single pane of glass for end-to-end visibility, faster troubleshooting, and closed-loop automation. This post details Prodapt’s experience implementing NeSA for a Tier 1 telco, reducing incident resolution time and costs.

Many Kubernetes applications require access to persistent storage and data services, including block storage, shared file systems, and object storage. Learn how MYCOM OSI has improved the cost-performance dimension by adopting Amazon FSx for NetApp ONTAP. This post explores how the storage option was evaluated to identify a solution that optimizes the handling of large and complex telco assurance datasets.

Telecom operators are increasingly migrating to AWS and cost savings is one of the primary drivers. Learn how DigitalRoute’s benchmarks show that by migrating to AWS and taking advantage of services like AWS Fargate and AWS Graviton, telecom operators can retain their on-premises performance while seeing cost reductions when deploying the Usage Engine Private Edition on AWS. DigitalRoute is collaborating with AWS to enable telecom and communication service providers.

In the era of 5G, telecommunication services providers (telcos) are under pressure to find new ways to build, operate, and monetize networks while delivering new and greater value to customers. We’re excited to introduce the AWS Telecommunications Competency, which helps telcos find validated partners offering consulting services in key telecom solution areas, including Operations Support Systems (OSS), Business Support Systems (BSS), Communications as a Service (CaaS), Mobile Networks, and Media & TV.

Totogi is an AWS Partner that provides a Charging-as-a-Service platform that benefits from deployment on AWS and helps customers reduce the electricity used for their online charging system. In this post, we’ll compare the Totogi charging platform’s energy and carbon-emissions efficiency to traditional charging platforms, and investigate architectural patterns that telcos and other businesses can replicate to reduce their carbon footprint.

AWS Partners represent a variety of geographies, backgrounds, and interests. With a network so widespread, AWS collaborates with businesses that excel in providing value-added services to customers from varied industries, including healthcare and life sciences, travel and hospitality, financial services, energy and utilities, media and entertainment, automotive, education, and more. Our industry-focused approach leverages specialized expertise and purpose-built solutions to help partners transform with AWS and solve the challenges facing various markets.

Building an optimized mobile network requires careful planning to ensure proper coverage and capacity. This post discusses how CSPs can augment their existing network planning with additional data while leveraging analytics for cell site placement and network optimizations. Learn how Kinetica, a GPU-accelerated data platform, unites historical analytics and streaming analytics, location intelligence, graph analytics, and machine learning to tackle massive scale network data challenges.

AWS IoT Core supports billions of devices and trillions of messages, and can process and route those messages to AWS endpoints and other devices reliably and securely. AWS IoT Core requires X.509 certificates for authentication, but the X.509 standard consumes battery power, negating LPWAN’s advantage in that area. Telefonica developed a data bridge to enable IoT devices to connect securely to AWS IoT Core, while preserving the long range, low cost, and low power advantages of LPWAN connections.
