T-Mobile plans to launch its 5G network in lower band spectrum so it can blanket the country with 5G service.

AT&T is at 63 percent of its goal to bring 75 percent of its networks under SDN control by 2020, according to AT&T CTO Andre Fuetsch.

Sapho develops micro-applications that help connect modern workplace collaboration tools with legacy SaaS products.

The Chinese vendor managed to shrug off procurement challenges during the first half of the year tied to a U.S. government ban on ZTE acquiring components from U.S. manufacturers.

The deal would be a major win for TSMC as it challenges Intel’s dominance in the data center.

Vidder’s technology is already integrated into Verizon’s SDP service.

AWS adds new infrastructure regions; The Linux Foundation launches a lab for SDN projects; ZTE contributes 5G patents to ETSI.

Cloud service providers have come to realize the importance of high-quality network connectivity to ensure a happy end user, says IHS Markit analyst Cliff Grossner.

It was the company's second quarter of 50 percent-plus growth in India.

The collaboration will initially use IBM’s Blockchain Platform to improve reliability and transparency of information collected by different networks when routing international calls.

At a recent investor conference both AT&T and Verizon said that 5G won’t have an impact on their revenues until at least 2020.

The latest update uses an in-house developed open source version of OpenStack that provides for more agility and a smaller footprint to support edge computing environments.

The platform integrates flow, packet, simple network management protocol, and API data sources to gain better insight into “dark environments,” including SD-WAN.

“We haven’t seen the full impact on our relationship with IBM,” said Canonical CEO Mark Shuttleworth. “IBM is still saying they want to work with us.”

Scalyr’s technology centralizes server monitoring, log management, and visualization and analysis tools to monitor and manage modern architectures.

The vendor integrated SD-WAN, application acceleration, visibility, and security in a single device and says its SD-WAN now has more than 1,000 customers.

Government officials want to prevent German telecom operators from using equipment from Chinese firms to construct their 5G networks. This would be similar to moves made by the U.S.

The OpenStack Platform 14 update makes it easier to install and run OpenShift in that environment and to run Kubernetes-orchestrated containers on bare metal.

According to the OpenStack Foundation board the new strategy reflects the desire of OpenStack users. But Canonical’s CEO thinks it distracts from the group’s core mission.

Municipalities that catalog their wireless assets and streamline their cell site approvals will be more appealing to wireless operators that are plotting their 5G deployments.

The company's current global head of Customer Operations Ashish Chowdhary will depart Nokia on Jan. 1, 2019. He will take a leadership position at another unnamed company.

The new Cisco SD-WAN Security product combines Viptela’s technology with Meraki, Cisco’s cloud-managed IT service and wireless LAN product, plus Cisco security software.

The 5G network can provide a single user peak data rate speeds of 2.7 Gb/s, which could support services such as 8K live broadcasts.

The chip design is unique in the market because it supports legacy 2G, 3G, 4G LTE, and the various 5G specifications on one module.
