April 14 2021 - 6:00AM
Amdocs (NASDAQ: DOX), a leading provider of software and services
to communications and media companies, today announced that it has
joined the Open Networking Foundation (ONF) as a new member. ONF is
a non-profit operator-led consortium driving transformation of
network infrastructure and carrier business models utilizing
network disaggregation, white box economics, open source software
and software defined standards. By joining ONF, Amdocs continues to
build on its commitment to drive service innovation and operations
agility through advanced service and network automation solutions
based on open interfaces, industry standards, data-driven
Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML) and
cloud-native technology.
Amdocs will engage with the ONF SD-RAN project, which is focused
on enabling modular and customizable Radio Access Network (RAN)
solutions that help service providers innovate more easily and add
new functionality faster. The project is creating open source
components for the mobile RAN space that are compliant with the
architecture defined by the O-RAN Alliance.
Amdocs has already been active in open technology communities
such as systems integration for TIP labs and edge deployed machine
learning for open RAN use-cases. Additionally, Amdocs continues to
drive the evolution of next-generation operations support systems
(OSS) and automation technologies for cross-domain hybrid networks,
and has been recognized for new product innovation and
transformative OSS solutions.
“We are pleased to welcome Amdocs to the SD-RAN community,”
stated Timon Sloane, Vice President Marketing and Ecosystem, ONF.
“A key goal of the SD-RAN project is to enable multi-vendor RAN
solutions allowing for a mix of open source and vendor proprietary
components, and to enable the emergence of a marketplace of vendor
xApps that can bring exciting new capabilities to RAN. One such
capability is intelligent automation leveraging AI/ML to enable
more efficient operation of RAN infrastructure, and it is exciting
to have Amdocs committing to help drive these capabilities in the
context of the SD-RAN project.”
“Amdocs helps service providers harness and monetize the power
of new networks through open, smart, cloud-based automation
software and solutions such as SmartRAN and Amdocs’ NEO next
generation OSS platform,” said Anthony Goonetilleke, group
president of Media, Network and Technology, Amdocs. “Support for
ONF SD-RAN is a key aspect of Amdocs' approach for deploying AI and
ML for near real-time analytics, responsive network capacity and
coverage, proactive actions, as well as context-aware service
experience optimization.”
