Malaysia’s DNB 5G network has received a world-first validation from the TM Forum of Level 4 Autonomy in Service Assurance, making it one of the most advanced in the world. The Intent-based Operations (IBO) solution from Ericsson, which uses AI to intelligently operate the network, serves as the foundation for this validation.
The network employs AI at Level 4 autonomy to anticipate issues and automatically modify itself to preserve peak performance. Its real-time monitoring, analysis, and optimization capabilities increase its reliability, agility, security, and manageability.
Under its recently launched Autonomous Network Level Assessment Validation (ANLAV) program, which examines and certifies levels of autonomy in particular high-value telecom scenarios, TM Forum, the preeminent international industry association for telecoms, verified the DNB 5G network. DNB and Ericsson received a perfect Level 4 score in Service Assurance on the test.
The DNB/Ericsson system’s ability to run highly automated systems on its own is validated by this. It is prepared to support enterprise-grade and industrial services, enabling Malaysian companies to confidently accelerate their embrace of digital technology.
With this capacity, DNB can provide dependable, cutting-edge connectivity solutions at affordable prices, opening the door to new ideas and efficiencies. Mission-critical applications in smart cities, autonomous transportation, healthcare, public safety, and sophisticated manufacturing can all be supported by the autonomous network.
A strong, long-term collaboration has been established between Ericsson and DNB to provide a top-notch, future-ready 5G network.
Their award-winning partnership on Ericsson Operations Engine’s AI-powered Intent-based Operations (IBO) makes it possible for businesses and consumers to enjoy premium 5G services with service level agreements (SLAs) that are guaranteed.
DNB’s network has been using the throughput management capability evaluated under the ANLAV initiative for the past two years.
It makes use of the most recent GenAI technologies to handle competing interests, model solutions with Digital Twins, and quickly carry out the optimal courses of action—ensuring quick, dependable, and unique connectivity throughout Malaysia’s 5G Advanced network.
