Data and Analytics for powerful insights

Troubleshoot service experience issues faster and more efficiently with Ericsson Expert Analytics

Data and Analytics for better business outcomes

Unlock the value of data with telecom analytics; multi-vendor, cross-domain Data and Analytics solutions that transform data at scale into actionable insight.

Superior service experience demands optimal telecom analytics

Data insights that drive better business outcomes come from a multitude of sources within the network and IT systems, in addition to external sources such as partner applications.

When coupled with triggers and action (ideally automated), telecom analytics, in the form of mediation and intelligent data processing, addresses several business imperatives – from facilitating accurate charging and billing to increasing operational efficiencies, reducing processing times and enabling effective decision making,

Across the business, data insights contribute positively to:

  • service experience (including service quality and customer experience)
  • customer experience, including customer loyalty / reducing churn
  • employee attrition reduction
  • revenue growth
  • operational efficiency

  • designing more competitive and contextual offers and packages
  • intelligent segmentation and churn management
  • recommending the most attractive and appealing offers to consumer and enteprise customers during the browsing and ordering process
  • communicating with subscribers about their usage, spending and purchase options
  • configuring the network to deliver more reliable services
  • monitoring Quality of Experience (QoE) to proactively correct potential problems

Improve service experience, solve issues proactively

Telecom analytics is the telecom specific set of data intelligence processes by which communication service providers (CSPs) gather, ingest, collate, sort, filter, examine, process and analyze large volumes of data. Multiple data sources present useful data that the business can use to draw actionable insights - from the network, business support systems (BSS), operations support systems (OSS) and other IT applications both internally and externally. Telecom analytics is increasingly progressing beyond reactive responses to proactive actions and predictive capabilities with the added power of artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML).

Telecom analytics delivers many benefits to the business, it can help improve profitability, enhance customer satisfaction and boost operational efficiency, by translating:

  • event data into chargeable data records
  • insights and opportunities into recommendations
  • issues and anomalies into remedial actions, workflows and alarms

All these activities enable improved service experiences, better monetization, smarter  ways of working, smarter more efficient networks and extended network functionality.

Consider the quality of data from the start

Many data sources generate data in different formats and with disparate types of information. Data ingestion is the entry point in the data engineering process and might span batch files, transactional events and streaming events. In contrast to traditional batch file processing, stream processing requires latency in the order of seconds or milliseconds. Disparate datasets need treatment and processing before they can be stored or injected in more specialized data pipelines downstream.

Look for these key capabilities to help your business:

  • Versatility: Address the diversity of data with different types of information and in different format types.
  • Flexibility: Filter irrelevant data and enrich data with metadata to support better analytics.
  • Scalability: Respond to data fluctuation and high traffic peaks, handle the changing flow of information while maintaining efficiency.
  • Real-time processing: Data should be ready to be consumed in real time, enabling use cases that operationalize machine learning (ML) models, for example anomaly detection.

See how stream mediation, a capability in Ericsson Mediation, makes it possible to take full advantage of data collected from your network.

Customers demand customization, quality, consistency and relevance in all their services.

With 5G and its enablement, actionable data can optimize the customer experience.  And with the expected increase of 5G-related data in the network, traditional approaches to data collection are unsustainable.

New services, encrypted traffic and streaming data from multiple sources cannot be measured and managed by traditional metrics and traditional means.

No single data source contains enough information to truly understand the totality of the situation.

New approaches are needed to:

  • Drive data from the network to inform the business in the pursuit of data driven operations.
  • Extract customer-centric intelligence so actions can be taken based on insights and recommendations.
  • Make data-driven business decisions and realize new revenue through a variety of use cases .
  • Improve service experience, including customer experience and service quality.
  • Exceed customer expectations, within resource constraints, optimizing network capacity and operations.
  • Let data silos give way to data integrity and data coherency .
  • Establish a common framework for all BSS and OSS components capturing AI insights to achieve data monetization and operational excellence
