AI Closed Loop Management Architecture Fundamentals
Closed loop automation is a crucial element of any service provider’s automation. It will be essential for minimizing operational expenses, improving productivity, and increasing scalability while enhancing the end-user experience.
The traditional network and service operations cannot continue to operate with its current labor intensive approach, due to the dynamic nature of the new networks.
With 5G, virtual network functions (VNFs), cloud native network functions (CNFs) and software-defined networking (SDN), it means that the rate at which these networks can scale up or down is growing exponentially. This associated complexity creates the need for AI driven automated management.
In this course, you will learn about an AI Closed Loop Automation Reference Architecture and process flows around key use cases, including the Closed Loop Anomaly Detection and Resolution Automation (CLADRA) reference architecture. You will gain knowledge on how to define and automate anomaly detection and resolution through standard functions, components and interfaces.
This one-day course is offered in expert-led virtual or in-person session to ensure a balance of classroom style education and interactive, hands-on exercises to maximize your learning.
