Telco Cloud Automation for Communication Services – Digital Suite I Offerings I Infosys

Overview

Infosys Telco Cloud Automation (TCA) Platform enables seamless onboarding & deployment of network functions to the cloud. It integrates IT and network infrastructure automation, enabling service providers to roll out industry-specific offerings and public / private 5G services through network virtualization and containerization. TCA accelerates autonomous deployment and operations of 5G and edge networks by leveraging the Open Network Automation Platform (ONAP) for orchestration, management and automation of the telco network.

Powered by AI, Infosys TCA Platform supports advanced use cases such as network slicing, intent-driven networking, and closed loop automation across edge, access, core, and backhaul. Our ready-to-use service blueprints for 5G, network slices, xNF, edge deployment, and Day 0, 1, …n configuration of network resources accelerate cloud automation of the telco network. Further, our network slicing approach ensures efficient utilization of common network infrastructure and provides agility for roll out at-scale.

Our cloud-native, modular, microservices-based Telco Cloud Automation Platform is aligned with private and public cloud models and MEC platforms. It distills knowledge from Linux Foundation Networking (LFN) projects to boost reliability, availability and usability. Notably, the architecture and interfaces of our platform comply with industry standards and specifications, including GSMA, ETSI, O-RAN, and TM Forum, which mitigates integration issues.

Challenges & Solutions

Disaggregation, virtualization and containerization provide scalability and elasticity, but involve complexity and interoperability concerns.

End-to-end automation of service blueprints and associated network slices ensure agility in service delivery and simplified network operations.

Robust lifecycle management of network functions is an imperative to grow 5G services.

AI-powered automation and orchestration drive standardization and zero-touch deployment.

Cost and time-to-market are critical for launch of 5G products and innovative service delivery.

User-defined templates and unified platform for versioning, configuration history and scheduling accelerate introduction of new catalogs while minimizing OpEx.
