Telecom network management is becoming a heavy task on tech companies since a huge flow of data in entering systems on a daily basis. Millions of users are connecting and over ,800 terabytes of data being generated per minute.
Network management varies from network traffic and performance metrics to system topologies and configurations. The complexity and amount of data have caused traditional automation tools to struggle to keep up in telecommunication systems.
However, those worries fade when NVIDIA AI Solutions step in. During the GTC global AI conference, NVIDIA unveiled a new approach for telecom network management. The tech giant announced that its partners are developing new Large Telco Models (LTMs) and AI agents, particularly for the favor of telecommunication systems. These solutions, powered by NVIDIA Telecom’s AI Enterprise platform, will enhance network management and operational efficiency in global networks.
LTMs Master the Language of Networks
Large Language Models trained on telecommunications network data are referred to as LTMS. They are designed to learn the unique “language” of telecommunication networks in the same manner that large language models (LLMs) learn human languages. LTMs can be applied to automate decision-making, streamline network operations, and improve operational workflows.
Customized for telecom workloads, LTMs deliver low latency, accuracy, and continuous learning. With NVIDIA BioNeMo NIM microservices, LTMs learn from real-time events and anomalies, improving performance. These AI agents reduce downtime, enhance customer experience and strengthen security by identifying and blocking cyber threats in real time. Using NVIDIA AI networks, LTMs simplify operations and make the network more efficient, to the advantage of both cost savings and performance.
Telcos Adopting NVIDIA AI Solutions
Major telcos are using NVIDIA AI Enterprise to enhance AI in network management through the latest technologies. SoftBank developed an LTM with its own network data to reorganize the network dynamically in response to events, making it more responsive.
Tech Mahindra’s LTM, along with NVIDIA Agentic AI products, offers end-to-end understanding into network issues, automatically generating reports and streamlining network management. Moreover, Amdocs and BubbleRAN also are encouraging AI agents for network performance and issue prediction, automating usual tasks and simplifying open Radio Access Network (RAN) adoption.
ServiceNow’s AI agents, on the other hand, leverage NVIDIA agentic AI to predict disruptions, speeding up the issue resolution process and enhancing customer experience. Nvidia and other tech giants coming up with these innovations highlight the undeniable role of AI in telecom network management.
Final Thoughts
NVIDIA AI Solutions is a significant twist in global networks, offering promising innovation to handle the huge data flow in telecom networks. While the advantages of LTMs and agentic AI in increasing operational efficiency, reducing downtime, and fortifying security are obvious, many believe that over-reliance on AI can lead to leaving systems vulnerable.
The risk of replacing human intuition in problem-solving is scary. However, as shown by SoftBank and Tech Mahindra, AI is not replacing human expertise but enhancing the capabilities of engineers to focus on difficult tasks. Finally, AI adoption in telecom network management seems crucial for elevating the telecom industry.
