Why move to autonomous networks?

Your customers’ needs are changing rapidly. To meet their dynamic requirements, you must deliver a zero-wait (instant order fulfillment), zero-touch (automated delivery), and zero-trouble (flawless service) experience. Enter autonomous networks. Increase the autonomy of your network to anticipate needs, solve problems before they arise, and constantly optimize for peak performance. That's the future Nokia is building for you with our innovative sense, think, act™ approach.

Hear from our customers about Autonomous Networks

“I think the most critical part of our partnership is the co-creation element because it’s about creating impact for the customers. ”
Tim Prins
Head of Operations, KPN
“We can now let our customers request services directly, on demand, with near real-time delivery and near-time provisioning — something only an autonomous network can make possible.”
Olivier Simon
VP, Smart Networks and Data, Orange
“We’ve been testing select AI use cases; they’ve delivered the value we expected — in some cases, even more.”
Gaston de Arriba
General Manager, Technology and Service Operations, TPG Australia

Challenges in achieving autonomous networks

Autonomous networks have the potential to deliver services that never fail by anticipating and resolving otherwise unforeseen network problems. Reducing the dependency on humans to operate networks frees up resources to enable CSPs to focus on developing and delivering more state-of-the-art services. TM Forum's autonomous network framework defines the different levels of network automation. Level 4 (highly autonomous) and Level 5 (fully autonomous) represent the ultimate goal for many CSPs, where your network anticipates your needs and self-configures for optimal performance.

Nokia’s Autonomous Networks Suite

Nokia’s innovative Autonomous Networks solution transforms network operations with cutting-edge AI, telco-specific knowledge graphs, and intelligent automation, empowering CSPs to create self-managing networks that adapt to demands with minimal human intervention.

Our portfolio is built on:
 

  1. A common foundation, the Autonomous Networks Fabric (AN Fabric), which provides a shared layer for consistent, scalable application development across the AN lifecycle. 
  2. Powered by the AN Fabric, a suite of Autonomous Networks Applications (AN Apps) provides a cohesive collection of use cases and capabilities helping CSPs to manage and optimize business and operational intents. Such intents may include Quality of Service SLAs, Costs, Revenue, Energy Savings, Security Risks and more.

These applications help CSPs to evolve incrementally through the AN maturity levels: 

L1-L2 Human as ‘Doer’

Where the human executes pre-configured operations and partially autonomous closed-loop operations.

L3–L4 Human as ‘Guide’

Where the human automates certain intent-based closed-loop operations for select use cases, domains, or services.

L4-L5 Human as ‘Supervisor’

Where the human monitors and supervises autonomous closed-loop operations across multiple services, domains, and E2E lifecycles.

Benefits of Nokia’s Autonomous Networks Suite


Our Autonomous Networks Suite is built upon four foundational principles:

360 observability and connectedness

A secure multi-domain, multi-vendor solution across domains and dimensions, with 360 observability enabling unified intent management.

AI trustability and scalability

Proven AI expertise with a complete and consistent data management & governance layer, combined with a framework for unified AI models management, enabling mass adoption of mission-critical agentic workflows.

Agility and speed

Out-of-the-box use cases, AI models, and AI Agents to accelerate autonomy levels, with a SaaS first approach to deployment automation, together with openness and modularity to increase innovation speed.

Single cross-domain fabric

Common intelligence layer for optimized semantic and knowledge data management that connects and powers AN apps with secure automation and enables quality data and explainable and trusted AI.
