Introduction In “Blog 1 – Your Telecom Cloud Journey on AWS: Part 1 – Establishing a Foundation” we covered the importance of establishing a strong cloud foundation on AWS, and we identified some of the key capabilities that are different or need to be adapted for Telco use cases. Specifically, we can see that from […]

Introduction This three-part series provides guidance on establishing a platform, or Telco Cloud, for Communications Service Providers (CSPs) migrating Telecommunications service provider (Telco) workloads to AWS. Sharing experiences from our Telco users’ journeys to the cloud, we cover the key operational and technical considerations when migrating complex telco workloads such as Core Networks, Radio Access […]

Communication Service Providers (CSPs) are evolving into providers of a “network of networks” to enable new revenue streams through industry-specific private network solutions. This plurality of networks needs the adoption of automation to achieve operational excellence. CSPs are seeking opportunities to automate the lifecycle management (LCM) operations of private networks. By using automation, CSPs can […]

Our Global Infrastructure spans 108 Availability Zones (AZs) within 34 geographic AWS Regions around the world at the time of writing. To provide mobile apps with ultra-low latency access to the AWS cloud, we collaborate with telecom operators globally to offer AWS Wavelength. AWS Wavelength Zones integrate AWS compute and storage services within mobile networks. […]

As customers increasingly demand personalized and efficient experiences, companies are using the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance their customer support capabilities. By using the power of generative AI (GenAI), Agents for Amazon Bedrock, and the Telecom Networks API (under GSMA’s Open Gateway and Camara initiative), organizations can create intelligent chatbots and agents that […]

With the advent of generative AI services such as Amazon Bedrock and Amazon Q Developer, it has never been easier to generate high-fidelity code while also building applications with foundation models. With this ease of use comes both great opportunity and responsibility to use this technology to impact critical barriers that exist today across digital […]

T-Mobile US, Inc. One of the largest US telecom carriers is rapidly increasing their subscriber base. They had concerns about meeting daily sales level agreement expectations for frontline employees and business stakeholders. They were using a legacy Software as a Service (SaaS) application for compensations calculation and reporting. The application lacked agility, scalability, and did […]

The telecommunications (telecom) industry is undergoing a transformative shift driven by advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). Small Language Models (SLMs), which can run efficiently on Internet of Things (IoT) and edge devices, are at the forefront of this revolution. SLMs are scaled-down versions of large language models (LLMs) that deliver comparable […]

Many Telco use cases use Equal Cost Multipath (ECMP) for traffic distribution, enhancing high availability (HA), resiliency, and fast failover. AWS Direct Connect and AWS Transit Gateways currently support ECMP (Equal-Cost Multi-Path routing) specifically for connections from on-premises environments to the AWS cloud. However, within an Amazon VPC (Virtual Private Cloud), only a single destination can […]
