Telefonica has engaged IBM Global Business Services — the consultancy arm of IBM, Red Hat
OpenShift and Juniper Networks Apstra, and QFX technology — to deploy an open-standard
open-networking platform across multiple central, regional, and distributed data centers to
deliver low latency and high bandwidth services.
Telefonica expects to increase agility and data security with IBM's large network function
ecosystem, Red Hat's vast ecosystem of certified partners, and Juniper's relationships with
network function and hardware vendors.
The integration of IBM Cloud Pak for Network Automation software with UNICA Next allows
for intent-driven orchestration, supporting the end-to-end lifecycle management of different
network cloud elements and network functions, including 5G core.
The deployment of UNICA Next data centers is expected to start in October 2021 and its
scalable architecture is designed to address ETSI and other relevant industry standards.
Telefonica has already deployed a live implementation using the IBM Cloud for
Telecommunications in Europe.
The acquisition of Turbonomic complements IBM's takeover of Instana for APM and
observability, and the launch of IBM Cloud Pak for Watson AIOps to automate IT operations
using AI. The company plans to integrate Turbonomic's ARM software with the APM and real-
time observability capabilities of Instana and the ITOps capabilities of IBM Cloud Pak for
Watson AIOps to help customers assure application performance and minimize costs by driving
optimization across development, test, and production environments.
IBM has also collaborated with Telefonica to create a virtual assistant and a blockchain platform
based on open hybrid cloud technologies. These solutions will help enterprises streamline
customer services and improve how companies trace their assets throughout the supply chain.
IBM’s expanded push into AIOps comes as a growing number of players are adding AI-based
automation including Cisco-AppDynamics, Splunk SPLK, Datadog DDOG, Micro Focus,
BigPanda, Moogsoft, and PagerDuty PD.
However, escalating costs of the hybrid cloud platform amid intensifying competition in the
cloud vertical from dominant players like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud pose a major
headwind.
