Amdocs Partners With Samsung, Fortifies Footing In NFV Market

 | Sep 12, 2019 08:50AM ET

Amdocs (NASDAQ:DOX) has announced that it is partnering with Samsung (OTC:SSNLF) to speed up the delivery of 5G services to market.

Reportedly, the companies will deliver various solutions and services to expedite the shift of communications service providers (CSPs) to open cloud networks.

The companies will work together to onboard and integrate Virtual Network Functions (VNFs), thereby allowing CSPs to leverage Samsung’s 5G network solutions with the Open Network Automation Platform (ONAP).

Amdocs and Samsung will also attempt to deliver services such as vRAN deployment and integration, and related Network Function Virtualization (NFV) solutions.

The partnership will help accelerate the transformation of CSPs to a dynamic software-driven architecture, which will enable networks to meet the changing user demand and network conditions.

Notably, with the increasing deployment of 5G networks, CSPs are redesigning their network to be open, virtualized, cloud-based and AI-based.

5G connectivity also demands new network architecture based on NFV. The partnership will allow Amdocs to combine its expertise in enterprise-grade ONAP with Samsung’s advanced 5G network solutions portfolio to help CSPs speed up the development of new services.
