Mobile operators deploying 5G have an entirely new packet core architecture to assemble as they build out their infrastructure; where and how they will get network intelligence in this environment is a key success factor to ensure that they can monetize their 5G networks, as well as maintain high quality as the number of users and use cases grow on new...

In late 2008, a game called Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle Cars came out for the PS3. Essentially, the game was football (that’s “soccer” for Americans) with cars. I loved the game. In July, a sequel called Rocket League was released for the PS4 and the PC.

I recently attended the Light Reading Vision Executive 2020 Summit in Dublin, and the event was a great peek into the thought process of some of the largest network operators in the world. Light Reading and Heavy Reading presented a number of different perspectives on what the future holds for telecom operators, some of which where quite compelling. One...

Does this mean their...

Procera created ScoreCard to change this and provide a solution that simply reports the quality that your network is capable of delivering, in categories that subscribers understand.

Networks are designed and built to handle traffic when it is at its peak during the day. This means that most networks have plenty of capacity for traffic during most times of the day but can start to approach or go over capacity for the peak hours. It is likely that your network’s capacity will be hit somewhere in your network, some of the time. But do...
