Allot Research Finds CLA Adoption Key in Delivering Quality of Experience (QoE) in 5G Networks
February 21 2019 - 7:42AM
Allot Ltd. (NASDAQ: ALLT) (TASE: ALLT), a leading global provider
of innovative network intelligence and security solutions for
service providers and enterprises worldwide, today, released
findings from its latest Telco Smart Trends Report identifying the
increased need for Communications Service Providers (CSPs) to
embrace Closed Loop Automation(CLA) to ensure improved and
sustained QoE. The report also highlights that IoT and security,
fueled by the onset of 5G, will be key drivers for CLA adoption.
The report explores how fixed, mobile and converged CSPs are
leveraging CLA today, while the industry in parallel prepares for
the transition from 4G to 5G. The report details findings from a
survey conducted among 100 CSPs worldwide to gauge the value they
perceive CLA adds. Key findings of the report include:
- Despite the benefits that CLA provides in 4G networks,
three-quarters of respondents feel that CLA will be most important
in either the transition period (50%) or once they have fully
implemented 5G (25%).
- Around two thirds of respondents strongly agree that CLA is
important to the growth of security and IoT services.
- Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) are best positioned to
deliver CLA with the added ML and AI capabilities that
cost-effectively ensure optimal performance, security and QoE.
- The respondents identify speed to problem resolution (87%) and
improved service performance (87%) as key ways CLA can help
- The main barriers to implementing CLA solutions for
organizations are having the skills to use the technology to the
full, understanding the technology, and cost.
“CSPs are keenly aware of the high vulnerability associated with
IoT devices and services,” said Akshay Sharma at neXt Curve.
“CLA will be a critical capability for effectively handling the
mounting IoT threats, magnified by the scale of 5G.”
“As traditional metrics such as network Key Performance
Indicators (KPIs) become obsolete, CSPs are aware of the need to
become more customer centric, focus on Key Quality Indicators
(KQIs) and to prioritize quality of experience for end-users,” said
Ronen Priel, VP, Product and Strategy at Allot. “CSPs already
realize that they need to embrace CLA and not doing so will prove
costly in the near and long-term. Our report points to the fact
that the CLA inherent in 5G is not enough and ISVs have the
opportunity to provide the additional CLA functionality, powered by
AI and ML to meet the growing QoE expectations.”
