* First integration will be Infovista Planet as cloud-native, Open RAN-compliant Network Design and Optimization microservices to automate planning and optimization of multi-vendor and multi-technology networks
The first Planet-based NDO rApp from Infovista will allow an operator to automate network planning related activities such coverage, throughput analysis, RAN optimization and, in turn, can enable capabilities such as auto-commissioning of sites and automation of other workflows which needs planning information and/or algorithms. The combination of AI and automation drastically improves network planning productivity to accelerate 5G rollouts. Infovista is already working on future micro-services rApps which will cover service / experience assurance, optimization, fault management, performance management and configuration management domains.
"The world of 5G Standalone is cloud-native, multi-vendor and multi-tech, making the alignment of network investments with business objectives a real headache for operators. End-to-end automation will be critical to solving this because every task and action taken in the 5G network has many ramifications," said Muhannad Alabweh, VP Solutions Engineering, Infovista. "Together with
