With 5G non-standalone deployments now well underway, some service providers are embracing 5G standalone while others are taking a more cautious approach. The move to 5G standalone and its cloud architecture opens the door to new vendors and interfaces, new security vulnerabilities, and a constant stream of new releases that require service providers to adopt more nimble continuous integration, delivery, and testing (CI/CD/CT) practices. Many providers have entrenched silos and workflows and don’t have all the critical skills needed for this transformation.

The good news is that early trailblazers are proving that with a strong CI/CD/CT foundation, 5G standalone has the potential to become an engine of both breakout growth and efficiency. Join our team of experts, Omdia Chief Analyst, Camille Mendler, Spirent Head of Strategy, Steve Douglas, and Spirent Director of Technical Development for India, Kishore Kumar, as they explain how partners with cloud, automation, and security expertise can complement service providers’ in-house expertise to rapidly adopt CI/CD/CT and unlock the potential of 5G standalone for new revenue and new savings.

The webinar will cover the following topics

  • The challenges 5G standalone’s cloud architecture brings with a focus on security & deployment

  • What a cloud-native 5G core release calendar looks like and why the move to CI/CD/CT is essential

  • The need for automation across the lab-to-live lifecycle

  • Best practices and lessons learned from early 5G standalone deployments
