SUSE Enhances Adaptable Platform for Telecom Operators to Modernize their Networks

"The telco market is undergoing transformation, and our customers are responding to SUSE ATIP as it delivers on the promise of an adaptable platform for telecom operators. We are seeing adoption for a broad range of use cases across mobile and fixed networks, such as 5G Packet Core, Cloud Radio Access Network (RAN), fiber-to-the-home/building and others," said Thomas Di Giacomo, chief technology and product officer at SUSE.

SUSE ATIP 3.0 is the first commercially available telco cloud stack that is strongly aligned and co-developed with Linux Foundation Europe's Project Sylva, an initiative founded by the five largest European telecom operators Deutsche Telekom, Orange, Telecom Italia, Telefonica and Vodafone as well as Ericsson and Nokia to develop a reference cloud software framework.

"Project Sylva addresses the urgent need for more commonality across open source telco-cloud stacks, since the current technical diversity across different stacks is slowing the entire ecosystem down," says Stephane Demartis, VP telco cloud infrastructure at Orange. "SUSE is a key contributor and sponsor on the project. The availability of SUSE ATIP as a commercially available support offer makes it significantly easier for us to integrate Sylva into Orange Telco Cloud, our own internal horizontal telco cloud stack, deployed across our EMEA affiliates."

Additionally, SUSE ATIP 3.0 enables telecom providers to:

In the Open RAN space, SUSE has partnered with Parallel Wireless, a leading provider of Open RAN platform-agnostic solutions. This collaboration aims to integrate ATIP into its ecosystem, enabling the world's first fully hardware-agnostic ORAN stack. This will allow Parallel Wireless' energy-efficient GreenRAN™ solutions to flexibly manage, optimize and process data securely, while significantly reducing total cost of ownership for service operators.

SUSE ATIP has been validated for Intel^® FlexRAN™ on 4th Gen Intel^® Xeon^® Scalable Processor.

SUSE ATIP 3.0 will be generally available in April 2024. Set up a meeting with SUSE experts at Mobile World Congress by visiting here or stopping by Booth 5K6, Hall 5. To learn more, visit https://www.suse.com/sector/telco/.
