Next-generation networks remain encumbered by the high operational costs and inefficiencies of legacy element management systems (EMSs). Operators should explore different EMS evolution strategies to reduce their reliance on EMS and gradually transition towards architectures that do not depend on them. 

Topics included in this report

  • An analysis of solutions telecoms operators can adopt to evolve their legacy EMSs to support cloud-native and autonomous networks.
  • Information and insights to support telecoms operators as they develop strategies to modernise legacy EMSs and transition to cloud-native and autonomous networks.
