Why move to autonomous networks?
Your customers’ needs are changing rapidly. To meet their dynamic requirements, you must deliver a zero-wait (instant order fulfillment), zero-touch (automated delivery), and zero-trouble (flawless service) experience. Enter autonomous networking. Increase the autonomy of your network to anticipate needs, solve problems before they arise, and constantly optimizes for peak performance. That's the future Nokia is building for you with our innovative "sense, think, act" approach.

Sense with observability
Observability provides enhanced contextual awareness and understanding. Gather detailed data from every corner of your network and get you a holistic view of what's happening.
Think with AI and machine learning
Analyze your data in real-time using cutting-edge AI and Generative AI models. Your network will detect anomalies, predict bottlenecks, and make intelligent decisions – all on its own.
Act with closed loop automation
Now it’s time to act. Your network will autonomously implement these decisions and create a feedback loop for continuous improvement and to deliver the best possible experience for your customers.
