"Advanced network APIs have significant revenue potential, but most CSPs are pursuing the easiest-to-implement use cases around anti-fraud."
Communications service providers (CSPs) are defining their network API strategies in a bid to find new monetisation opportunities for their 5G networks and network-as-a-service (NaaS) platforms. This report explores publicly announced network API launches, vendor and CSP partnerships and emerging use cases, offering insights into how CSPs are using network APIs and associated infrastructure to unlock new revenue streams.
This report provides:
- an analysis on CSPs' publicly announced network API launches, vendor partnerships, regional breakdowns, use cases and deployment models/commercial strategies
- an overview and definitions of what constitutes a network API platform
- information and insights that CSPs and vendors can draw upon when formulating their own strategies.
This report is based on our Communications service provider network API exposure platform and use case tracker 1H 2024.
