Building the perfect 5G Network

March 11, 2021

According to Analysys Mason, nearly 80% of mobile operators around the world plan to start the commercial deployment of standalone (SA) 5G networks by 2025. With a SA 5G network, operators can employ service-based architectures that can support web scale technologies, open source software, and high levels of automation. Cloud native technology will be key to deploying a SA 5G core as it delivers more agility, flexibility, and reusability across both new and legacy network platforms.

During this roundtable, industry experts from Analysys Mason, BT, Telenor, and Oracle will discuss:
  • What are the benefits of a Cloud native SA 5G network?
  • How should you prepare your organization to transition to the new 5G core architecture?
  • How will this new architecture enable you to build a best in class network?
