Nokia\u2019s WaveSuite AI enabled du\u2019s engineering team to perform real-time network status queries, instantly retrieve accurate documentation, and plan future network evolution through a single natural language interface. The result was faster troubleshooting, fewer network errors, and a more efficient use of resources that resulted in a superior network management experience for du\u2019s operational teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Telecom operators worldwide face rising demands for connectivity and bandwidth, based on the acceleration of data center buildouts required for the AI era. While AI buildouts create challenges for network operators, they also provide opportunity in the form of new resources and tools to improve operations and network efficiency. WaveSuite AI uses both classic and generative AI to provide insightful real-time network data, contextual assistance based on network information and an easy-to-use interface that improves productivity and reduces time-to-repair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur trial with Nokia on WaveSuite AI shows how innovation can transform network operations to face challenges brought on by increasingly sophisticated networks and ever higher traffic volumes. We designed and built more efficient networks in a fraction of the time by automating routine tasks and providing intelligent tools. Most importantly, this means our customers in the UAE will benefit from more reliable, SLA-backed connectivity for their mission-critical applications,\u201d said Saleem Alblooshi, Chief Technology Officer at du.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWaveSuite AI demonstrates the real value of automation solutions with both classical and generative AI for optical networking. By simplifying planning, reducing tactical errors, making it easier to find answers in documentation and accelerating operations, By easing network operational processes, WaveSuite AI enables service providers to more rapidly deliver higher speed and more reliable services in a proactive approach,\u201d said Ron Johnson, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Optical Networks at Nokia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2022 The collaboration delivered more reliable connectivity, fewer disruptions and an improved digital experience for customers.\u2022 Leveraging Nokia WaveSuite AI, du is paving the way to greater operational efficiency by streamlining optical network planning by 50 percent, delivering 30 percent more efficient network designs, assisting with troubleshooting and reducing time-to-market. \u2022 The trial demonstrated the &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[796,946],"class_list":["post-80974","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-nokia-2","tag-technology-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.1 -
