Autonomous Networks

Course Overview

As networks are becoming increasingly complex in terms of traffic, network types, experience and quality, operators are faced more than ever with the challenge of managing this complexity with their current resourcing, capabilities and human-centric processes. This development means that some are seeking to use AI on top of cloud-native networks to develop automation and self-healing capabilities. This forms part of the 5G discussion but sits beyond 5G.

This course investigates autonomous networks to help you better understand how operators can use them to increase efficiency and meet customer expectations and demands.
