Meet the 5G Core experts

In this video series our experts will share their insights around the evolution of 5G Core networks. They will explain and present different topic areas, that you as service provider need to plan for when evolving your 5G Core network.

Key Lessons from the Field: Cloud-Native Infrastructure for 5G Core

Discover what really works when deploying 5G Core on cloud-native infrastructure—proven across 100+ contracts, 40 live networks, and 400 data centers worldwide. In this season of the 5G Core Expert Series, Anton Redfords and Cesar Orihuela share insights from the field—covering integration, automation, operations, and energy optimization—to help you unlock more value from every deployment.

Pre-integration and system verification accelerate deployment

Video duration | 3:25 mins

Integration complexity remains one of the main challenges in 5G Core deployments. This episode shows how pre-integrated, system-verified cloud-native infrastructure shortens rollout time by up to 4 times while improving stability and simplifying operations.

Single accountability reduces risk and simplifies operations

Video duration | 2:00 mins

CSPs often face delays and finger-pointing when multiple vendors share responsibility. Learn how full-stack ownership across design, deployment, and lifecycle delivers faster recovery, greater cost efficiency, and up to 5 times fewer high-severity incidents.

Automated lifecycle management drives speed, scale, and stability

Video duration | 2:51 mins

Many CSPs adopt cloud-native technologies but not the operating model to run them. See how automation and in-service upgrades cut network-upgrade time by up to 60%, boosting uptime and consistency across distributed 5G Core environments.

Energy efficiency is a business imperative

Video duration | 2:45 mins

Rising traffic and compute demand are driving up energy costs for CSPs. This episode highlights how designing efficiency into cloud-native infrastructure from the start achieves up to 3 times energy savings and 40–50% lower power consumption.
