Adoption Assessment Survey Q2 2019 results
The pilot survey opened in March 2019 and had 12 vendor respondents and 7 communication service provider (CSP) respondents.
The results show most vendors have a good level of intention and ambition for implementation of TM Forum Open APIs but at this time they have relatively low maturity in the roll-out of their implementations due to the cadence of their development cycles.
Vendor maturity is still ahead of CSP maturity, which is as expected given the CSP dependency on vendors and the complexity of introduction into live systems. As expected, the more mature vendor deployments are available from vendors with smaller product portfolios that allow for quicker turnaround and adoption of new technologies.
CSP intent to adopt Open APIs is also ahead of vendor intent for key API collections. This provides motivation for vendors to become partners in the growth of the new 5G. CSPs also place higher priority on the Resource and Service API collections whereas vendors are more mature in the Product and Customer API collections.
