NTT Data partners with VMware to accelerate Open RAN adoption and deployment

NTT DATA and VMware have announced a collaboration to accelerate the path to software-defined, large-scale Open RAN deployments through combined solutions and services. The companies will further collaborate to enable the global Communications Service Provider (CSPs) industry to continue to transform from traditional operations to more agile, cloud-smart approaches in the RAN.

How is this collaboration important
NTT DATA and VMware recognise that CSPs are moving towards an Open RAN future state deployment and seeking to leverage a horizontal, modern telco cloud platform to achieve greater scale, efficiency, and agility in their radio access networks.
