5G promises a world of possibilities — from enabling the Internet of Things (IoT) to reach mass market scale, to supporting autonomous vehicles, smart cities and factories, to delivering Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) and enhanced mobile broadband to smart homes.
To achieve these goals, service providers need to:
Understand their network
Measure and predict service performance
Proactively assure quality of experience (QoE) for each application
And all of these needs must be automated to maximize return on investment. The 3GPP-defined NWDAF provides a centralized, predictive analytics platform for 5G core networks. Without this critical function the network would struggle to deliver the performance required for more complex 5G network slices.
Cloud Native5G Service Intelligence Engine is designed with next generation cloud native principles with software provided as Cloud Native Network Functions (CNFs)
