Introduction to Network as Code
Nokia’s Network as Code (NaC) is a groundbreaking innovation that redefines how networks are managed and optimized. NaC transforms traditional network configurations into programmable entities, enabling applications to dynamically alter the network to optimize performance and enhance user experiences. This paradigm shift elevates cloud-native network adoption, openness, and programmability to pivotal roles in the telecommunications domain.
Exploring the Concept of Network as Code
Network as Code simplifies network functionalities, allowing applications to interact directly with the network. This capability enables a profound change in the business and technology framework, making distributed service chains mainstream and fostering a robust ecosystem comprising developers and technology partners. This integration is crucial for unlocking new business values and accelerating cloud-native network adoption across telecommunications.
Strategic Implications of NaC in Monetizing 5G
Network as Code is instrumental in leveraging the rich, software-based functionalities embedded within the world’s first cloud-native network—5G. NaC enables Communication Service Providers (CSPs) to expose these capabilities through an advanced, cloud-native architecture. This strategic exposure is pivotal in transforming CSPs from mere connectivity providers to enablers of rich, network-critical applications that propel new value creation and revenue opportunities.
Beyond CPaaS: The Advent of Real-Time Network Programmability
NaC extends beyond the traditional boundaries of Communication Platform as a Service (CPaaS), ushering in a new era of network functionality, including real-time, immersive video broadcasting, edge processing offloading, advanced fleet management, and autonomous system control. These capabilities are set to redefine industry standards and open up a realm of previously unimaginable possibilities.
