Revolutionizing Telco Operations with Advanced AI and Automation Solutions
Lightstorm has announced the development of a Cognitive Network Operations Center (NOC) Digital Twin, in collaboration with Nokia. This innovative platform leverages Nokia’s network automation solutions to revolutionize the management and optimization of telco and service provider networks. The Digital Twin is set to launch in the coming months, offering enhanced network visibility, predictive analytics, and operational efficiency.
The partnership with Nokia has enabled Lightstorm to integrate the Network Services Platform (NSP) and Nokia Digital Operations software, including the Network Assurance Center, Unified Inventory, and provisioning capabilities. This comprehensive real-time monitoring and automation framework utilizes Meta’s Llama 3.X to power AI-driven insights, facilitating automated fault detection, analysis, resolution, and intelligent troubleshooting for seamless and highly responsive network operations.
“By collaborating with Nokia and its data source from diverse deployed Nokia systems, we have developed a next-generation AI-powered platform that redefines network operations.”
