Ribbon Acumen

Simplify, Modernize, and Automate Network Infrastructure

Service providers have spent billions on their networks, but aggressive investment doesn’t assure return on investment. Providers need to optimize their environments to extract cost without creating churn. They must dramatically reduce the time and resources required to run their network and simultaneously accelerate bringing innovations to market.

Many providers are aggressively moving to more efficient cloud-native infrastructure, but that effort will take years to fully complete. To be effective now, they need tools that work across generations of technology to manage an entire hybrid network — including legacy gear — via a single-pane-of-glass. And the solution must work across the entire network, voice and data, fixed and mobile.

It needs to leverage the latest AI/ML technology so it can correlate insights across different layers of the network to rapidly resolve issues and simplify service delivery.
