Tata Elxsi has announced its collaboration with Red Hat, the world’s leading provider of enterprise open-source solutions to monetise applications and reduce operational expenditures through simplifying operations in 5G networks for Telcos and enterprises.
The collaboration aims to create a use case factory to help global operators monetise their networks using industry-specific 5G applications across transportation, manufacturing, and healthcare, through proven verticalised applications and joint solutions.
As a case in point, as the automotive industry aggressively pivots towards software-defined vehicles (SDV), there is a growing demand for real-time, secure OTA (over-the-air) updates and containerized services through 5G networks. The collaboration enables telcos to address these OEM needs with an integrated solution using TETHER, Tata Elxsi’s globally deployed connected vehicle platform; NEURON, Tata Elxsi’s award-winning network automation platform, Red Hat OpenShift, the industry’s leading hybrid cloud application platform powered by Kubernetes, along with Red Hat In-Vehicle Operating System. This solution will enable OEMs to deploy subscription-based services and platforms for connected vehicles with advanced fleet management features and real-time OTA.
Vivek Tiwary, Vice President and Head of Telco 5G Business Tata Elxsi said “As we enter the era of 5G in automotive, healthcare, and Industry 4.0, telcos are at the forefront, crafting customer-centric services and embracing new technologies. This shift demands a move towards cloudification, multi-cloud adoption, intelligent cognitive network operations and automation. We are delighted to enable this transition alongside Red Hat, driving Telco 5G Multi-Cloud Automation and edge intelligence to provide our clients with unique services.”
