Oracle Communications Network Data Analytics
Function first in a portfolio of statistical and predictive
5G network core analytics solutions
AUSTIN,
Texas, Oct. 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Oracle today
unveiled Oracle Network Analytics Suite. The new cloud native
portfolio of analytics solutions combines network function data
with machine learning and artificial intelligence to help operators
make more informed, automated decisions around the performance and
stability of their entire 5G network core. The first offering in
the suite, Oracle Communications Network Data Analytics Function is
available now. With the offering, operators can quickly identify
anomalies that can cause catastrophic network function failures and
impact customer service. See the Analytics Suite in action at
Network X Amsterdam, booth G24, October
18-20, 2022.
"Driving innovation with insights from trusted data and enriched
analytics is not only critical to compete in today's marketplace,
but game changing in the way service providers can achieve greater
cost efficiency, improve quality of service, and carve out new
revenue streams, explains Andrew
Morawski, senior vice president and general manager, Oracle
Communications, Networks. "Our 5G Network Analytics Suite harnesses
Oracle's cloud and network experience into a powerful toolset that
helps operators better manage and optimize their 5G networks."
Optimizing 5G networks with the
Network Data Analytics Function
Based on cloud native computing foundation (CNCF) principles and
supporting 3GPP standards, the Network Data Analytics Function is a
containerized microservices-based architecture and managed by
Kubernetes. It serves as a key data and analytics repository with
standard interfaces to store and share information that can support
use cases across the entire 5G network.
The offering aggregates historical and real-time data such as
control signaling measurements, the state of network functions,
congestion, and quality of service, all in one, intuitive
dashboard. By applying machine learning, predictive analytics and
AI to this data, service providers can better understand how their
5G core is performing and make better decisions around any actions
that need to be taken. This enables carriers to streamline
operations and network planning based on insights generated from
current, predicted, and even simulated events in their network.
With the offering, CSPs can build automation into applications
to monitor and audit software components. This supports anomaly
detection to avoid events such as network function failure that
could result in degradation of network quality. The offering can
also support network monetization with data and insight sharing to
third-party developers to create new services.
And because it is based on open standard interfaces and supports
both private and public environments and multi-cloud deployments,
the network function is interoperable and accessible regardless of
network size or ecosystem of core network functions in use. This is
particularly useful for service providers seeking a company-wide
analytics strategy, who can implement the offering to reach beyond
pre-defined 3GPP use cases and work with broader analytics
solutions.
"Communications service providers are challenged by the levels
of complexity that new technology brings to light. Building a
competitive advantage requires not only effective operations
management, but advanced insight concerning network behavior," said
Karl Whitelock, research vice
president, Communications Service Provider Operations and
Monetization, IDC. "To access enterprise-driven business
opportunities, and to create value within new industries goes well
beyond traditional connectivity services. Network level analytics
must play a heavy role in addressing customer-defined solution
needs."
