Mavenir, a leader in cloud-native network infrastructure, has been awarded the prestigious 2024 Network X Award for Most Innovative Cloud Product, further establishing its position as a trailblazer in telecom innovation. This recognition underscores Mavenir’s commitment to delivering advanced Cloud-Native Automation solutions for mobile network operators (MNOs).
The accolade adds to Mavenir’s growing list of achievements, following its previous win of the 2023 Network X Award for Outstanding Automation Solution in Open RAN. The Network X Award is presented to the cloud-based product that has made the most significant impact on network performance for MNOs, with a particular focus on innovation and real-world effectiveness.
Mavenir’s cloud-native 5G automation solution was evaluated by a panel of judges based on five critical criteria: the level of innovation presented, the impact of cloud technology on network performance, the efficiency of deployment in terms of time and cost, operational efficiency, and its relevance demonstrated through case studies. This recognition confirms Mavenir’s role in advancing cloud-native 5G network deployments, allowing MNOs to enhance their service offerings while reducing the total cost of ownership (TCO).
Mavenir’s Cloud-Native Automation solution facilitates a faster transition to 5G for MNOs by providing end-to-end automation and orchestration of network function software deployment and lifecycle management. This allows for quicker network deployment, improved flexibility, and seamless scaling of operations. The comprehensive automation capabilities encompass infrastructure automation, cloud platform automation, network functions automation, and continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipeline automation. This holistic approach streamlines both the initial deployment of cloud-native network functions (CNFs) and the ongoing lifecycle management, including necessary upgrades and rollbacks.
Bejoy Pankajakshan, Mavenir’s Chief Technology and Strategy Officer, commented on the award, stating, “Our solution simplifies and accelerates network and services deployment, providing a cost-effective path to 5G. By reducing time, cost, and resource requirements, our customers can quickly implement new innovations and features, staying ahead in a rapidly evolving market.”
The Network X awards celebrate advancements and leadership within the global telecommunications sector, highlighting projects and initiatives that exemplify innovation, collaboration, and sustainability. Mavenir’s latest recognition reinforces its commitment to pushing the boundaries of what is possible in telecom technology, helping MNOs meet the demands of modern connectivity while improving efficiency and service quality.
As Mavenir continues to innovate and lead in the telecom industry, this award serves as a testament to its ongoing efforts to enhance network performance and support the global transition to 5G technology. The company aims to empower mobile network operators worldwide, ensuring they remain competitive in an increasingly demanding landscape. Cloud-Native Automation – Mavenir
