Cloud services have quickly become a foundational part of IT infrastructure in terms of data, networks and applications. To achieve effective digital transformation and maximize value, operators need to have the right IT infrastructure in place and adopt pre-integrated cloud solutions that enables them to leverage their core assets. A key goal is to accelerate value monetization as the digital transformation journey of carriers evolves. It requires strategic alliances with companies that can provide capabilities in cloud, storage and diversified computing power. Huawei offers those capabilities in the form of network-side devices, distributed cloud architecture (on-premises cloud + public cloud), unified storage resource pools and diversified compute power pre-integrated with core telecom applications. In this article, we look at how future-oriented IT infrastructure for operators can pave the way for success. We also explore the telco evolution from communications technology (CT) to include the diverse set of technological tools and resources of information communications technology (ICT). Future-oriented IT infrastructure for carriers According to research from Gartner, carriers around the world will increase their investments in cloud-based transformations at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 27% in the next five years. Laying the foundation to hep carriers achieve intelligent […]
