AWS Absorbs More of Nokia’s 5G-Focused Software Platform

Nokia expanded availability of its Common Software Foundation (CSF) platform to Amazon Web Services (AWS). This marks what the vendor calls its first step toward delivering cloud-native network functions and applications to help operators deploy 5G and digital services. The engineering collaboration will focus on 5G platforms like mobile core, network and service orchestrion, device management, and operational support systems (OSS). The move will push all of Nokia Software’s cloud-native network functions and applications to AWS once they are released. Nokia currently offers customer experience, service fulfillment, and orchestration services through AWS.
