Rethinking Telco Infrastructure for the AI and 5G Era and Beyond

ET
60 Minutes

Telecom service providers are at a critical crossroads. Rising financial pressure is accelerating decisions around virtualization and infrastructure modernization - decisions that will define their readiness for AI, 5G and beyond This webinar explores how legacy virtualization providers are raising the stakes, and how telcos are responding by shifting toward AI-native architectures.

While cost savings often initiate virtualization efforts, the true value lies in building next-generation platforms powered by robust ecosystems - spanning networking, storage, compute, backup/disaster recovery, and public cloud. We’ll explore why IT workloads tend to migrate more easily than network functions, what obstacles still stand in the way, and how telcos can develop intelligent, scalable, secure, and sustainable infrastructure.
