Build comprehensive and leading 5G commercial software products and solutions based on three “globals”

At the product launch, Dr. Ye Ouyang, chief technology officer of AsiaInfo, elaborated on AsiaInfo’s 5G product and technology strategy, namely “global virtualization, global intelligence and global perception”. “Global virtualization” refers to the intelligent and virtualized products and solutions for 5G network that help operators automate and virtualize network and business functions within their network systems; “global intelligentization” is to help operators establish a full set of universal AI platforms compatible with O and B domains and export unified ability to various vertical ecosystems with the communication ecosystem based on AsiaInfo’s years of machine learning, data mining and artificial intelligence capabilities accumulated in the operator system; “global perception” means that all new products developed by AsiaInfo for 5G network must be aimed at optimizing and enhancing the perception and experience of operators' mobile users and vertical industry users at the network service level. The ultimate goal of all the products is to optimize the experience and perception of 5G users. As the largest telecom software and information service provider in China, AsiaInfo began to plan and pre-study the next-generation business support system for 5G business models and scenarios in 2016, and have seen dramatic breakthroughs in such fields as 5G network intelligence, artificial intelligence, platform support, big data and scenario billing; it has also released the strategy and plan on 5G network intelligent products, built a series of product prototypes, including customer experience management products, network virtualization products, network intelligent analysis products, etc., and carried out pilot cooperation with the three major operators and their research institutions or provincial branches.

“As a long-term partner of China's three major operators for 26 years, AsiaInfo and the operators have formed a high degree of strategic and technical synergy in each generation of technological evolution. AsiaInfo will use its ‘global virtualization, global intelligentization and global perception’ technologies to help operators achieve the neutrality of business and network. In the 5G era, we hope to be the technical arranger of the operators' network and business; in the business model, we hope to be the enabler of operators and vertical industries.” Dr. Ye Ouyang said.
