Experience Mobile as a Software

OpenRAN img
Open RAN
Learn how we make Open RAN work at scale, today, with independently measured results at equity or exceeding traditional network performance.

See how we accelerate business through cloud native development and deployment of new 3GPP features and how we run a full cloud operation with the required resiliency and security.
Automation img
Operations
When we first started planning, building and operating networks, we digitalized 100% of all required processes into a single platform, Symworld.

See our approach to automating all the processes, where to start, what real world outcomes should be expected, and what mistakes to avoid. This is not theory but proven in live operations every day.
Cloud img
Cloud
We commercially run a fully cloud native end to end operation .We support both public and private cloud deployments.

Learn the challenges of deploying different application types, what the reality is like versus the hype, and all the best approaches to cloud in telecom from a design, operational and financial perspective.
Infrastructure Platform img
Platform Infrastructure
We run over 300,000 Open RAN cells in live commercial operation in Japan.

Understand how we manage a diverse supply chain, reducing cost and time from both site development and base station deployment. See how we remove active cooling to remove energy costs and mechanical failure.
Critical Infrastructure  img
Security and Sustainability
Security, energy management and broader sustainability efforts in Open RAN and cloud-based networks are hot topics today. We’ll share our approach, and our experts will discuss Open RAN security specifically, Zero Trust deployments for both internal and external actors, all the way down to container configuration and hardening.
