The telecommunications industry has made massive strides over the last few decades, profoundly impacting nations and societies an increasingly interconnected global society, the industry stands as the backbone of modern communication, linking individuals, communities, and nations like never before.
Its influence transcends geographical boundaries and time zones, affecting every facet of our lives. The industry serves as a catalyst for economic growth, driving innovation, productivity, and efficiency across various sectors. By providing the infrastructure and platforms that enable businesses to collaborate, operate, and reach customers globally, telecom networks are a driving force behind economic expansion and job creation.
Connectivity has always driven social development. From the telegraphs and telephones of the industrial era to the cellular, fibre, and data communications of the information era, each upgrade has transformed communication and economic growth. The transition from low-speed X.25 networks and expensive frame relay networks in the mid-1990s to high-speed cellular networks like 5G marks a significant evolution. The world is now moving towards the intelligent era, where connectivity is increasingly embedded with AI and Cloud technologies.
The increasing complexity of network infrastructure, densification of networks, and billions of loT-connected devices make it impractical to manage and operate networks using only traditional network management methods and static policies. AI and automation are helping networks overcome this significant challenge.
An intelligent network will not just take decisions autonomously; it will also provide knowledge representation, reasoning, and explanation facilities, making the zero-touch paradigm a likely reality.
