Mastering cloud-native network transformation is a must for 5G service delivery
Mastering cloud-native network transformation is a must for 5G service delivery.
⏩ The ability to support service innovation is the key reason for operators to migrate to cloud-native networks
As one European Tier-1 operator told Analysys Mason, “We don’t know what (digital) services will emerge in the future. So we must have an infrastructure that is flexible and agile enough to support anything.” Services will be built using software that is run on the cloud – an IT infrastructure that is becoming distributed to ‘edge’ locations.
Developers are forming different expectations about connectivity now that services are increasingly developed and deployed across multiple cloud sites. Indeed, developers are increasingly intolerant of ‘black box’ networking that is opaque and static, which prevents them from automating network changes in the same way that they remotely manage cloud infrastructure and applications. They must ask network operations teams to make changes, which creates delays in achieving business goals.
⏩ Cloud-native networks enable network capabilities to be programmed through the same API code that digital services use to communicate with each other. The network becomes a peer of the cloud and converges with it. The resulting, seamless network/IT infrastructure-as-code can be manipulated by developers together, rather than as two different and unequal environments.
⏩ A survey of 67 developers, conducted by Analysys Mason in 1Q 2023, found that 73% of developers want access to advanced network APIs to allow them to control quality of service, deploy applications to edge locations according to network performance and to customise connectivity and security features.

⏩ Operators must take three actions to ensure that they have a cloud-native network fit for future services
🔰Deploy a horizontal telecoms cloud that can support multiple functions from multiple vendors
🔰Prepare for cross-functional cloud-native automation
🔰Use the monetisation opportunity presented by the cloud-native 5G environment to drive larger cloud-native goals
