Traditional, vertically integrated telecommunications infrastructure creates operational friction, increases costs, and hinders the rapid deployment of new digital services. Leading service providers are moving to an open common platform that runs legacy VMs, cloud native network functions, and AI workloads under one operational model—from core and edge to sovereign cloud.

This eBook shows how a common, automated platform can improve TCO, scale GitOps and zero-touch operations, and support data-sovereignty requirements—with examples from service providers already making the shift.

• See how one platform can host VMs, CNFs, and AI without dual-stack overhead
• Learn where TCO and energy gains come from resource pooling and automation
• Get a practical view of GitOps, zero-touch provisioning, and predictive ops at the edgeUnderstand how open, hardware agnostic architecture supports sovereignty and local control
• Review CSP examples of faster delivery, lower deployment cost, and leaner IT ops
