In the coming years, the way that telecommunications networks are built will fundamentally change. Instead of proprietary, single-vendor systems and purpose-built appliances, CSPs are shifting to cloud-native core networks, cloud-based edge services, vRAN and Open RAN solutions that mix virtualized software and industry-standard servers from a variety of vendors. These cloud-based networks will scale effortlessly, automate day-to-day operations, and adapt quickly to new market opportunities while reducing costs.
Although these solutions will share many common characteristics with enterprise clouds, telco clouds will continue to have unique requirements around performance, latency, security, and the services they support. To meet these requirements across a variety of use cases, CSPs will need to mix and match solutions from different vendors and, in many cases, manage multiple cloud platforms across the edge, core, and RAN. This introduces the potential for complexity and risk, particularly as CSPs look to integrate multivendor solutions and manage them effectively over the solution lifecycle. In order to accelerate the deployment, simplify management, and reduce the risk of multivendor telecom networks, Dell Technologies is partnering with the industry leading cloud platform providers to create Dell Telecom Multi-Cloud Foundation.
