NTT DATA and Ericsson have recently started a major strategic partnership. The strategic partnership has been launched and is expected to run for a number of years. The strategic partnership between the two companies is expected to accelerate the adoption of Private 5G networks. The two companies are also looking to unlock the potential of edge AI and physical AI. The strategic partnership between the two companies will see them focus on helping enterprises scale from pilots to global production.
“Private 5G is the backbone for scaling AI in production, where autonomous systems must operate reliably and at scale, but integration complexity often remains the final hurdle,” said Alejandro Cadenas, Associate Vice-President of Worldwide Telco Research at IDC.“The combined expertise of NTT DATA and Ericsson seamlessly integrates edge AI and physical AI with enhanced connectivity, overcoming operational, scalability, and accountability challenges and accelerating the deployment of AI with confidence.”
“As enterprises adopt AI at the edge, they need partners who can bring connectivity, intelligence, and security together in a way that actually works in production,” said Shahid Ahmed, Global Head of Edge Services, NTT DATA, Inc.“Together with Ericsson, we can deploy these solutions faster, operate them at scale, and deliver outcomes. Private 5G gives enterprises the foundation they need to achieve real, measurable impact with edge AI and physical AI deployments.”
Collaboration Targets Scalable Edge AI and Private 5G Deployments
The firms will concentrate on industries such as manufacturing and logistics. The firms will ensure that they deliver solutions that give a certain return on investment. In addition to that, the solutions enable real-time decision-making, which means that data is actually created. Ericsson has more than a decade of experience in enterprise wireless solutions. On the other hand, NTT DATA offers the engineering and IT/OT security required for success. As a result, companies can now move to always-on and production-grade environments with confidence.
Ericsson has been advancing enterprise connectivity for over a decade. This extends that capability to support edge AI and physical AI at scale across industries,” said Asa Tamsons, Senior Vice President and Head of Business Area Enterprise Wireless Solutions, Ericsson. “By combining our global platforms with NTT DATA’s engineering and managed services, industry expertise, and AI-driven operations, enterprises can move from experimentation to always-on, production-grade operations.”
