“Nokia’s AI-RAN launch represents an important step in bringing AI-RAN from industry vision to commercial reality. The addition of the new AI-RAN node alongside the AirScale capacity plug-in unit and cloud-native deployment options gives operators practical choices for adopting AI-native networks based on their existing infrastructure and transformation goals. By combining AI-accelerated computing with a software-defined architecture and a clear product roadmap, Nokia is helping operators unlock greater capacity, improve network economics and accelerate the transition toward AI-native RAN,” commented Rémy Pascal, Practice Leader, Mobile Infrastructure at Omdia.

One AI-native platform. Three paths to adoption
Recognizing the diversity of telecommunication providers’ network strategies and installed RAN bases, Nokia’s AI-RAN platform is built on a common software-defined architecture powered by Nokia’s anyRAN software and NVIDIA’s accelerated computing. Supporting 4G, 5G and future network evolution, it provides three hardware platform options, including an expansion card for existing AirScale deployments and a Cloud RAN alternative. Fully compliant with Open RAN standards, the platform supports open, interoperable multi-vendor deployments while giving operators the flexibility to choose the hardware and cloud environments that best meet their needs. These hardware platform options allow telecommunication providers to modernize at their own pace while preserving existing infrastructure investments, benefiting from a common software roadmap and accelerating innovation at software speed. Telecommunication providers can adopt AI-RAN in stages using the approach that best matches their deployment strategy, capacity requirements and installed base.

Build on existing investments
For existing Nokia customers, Nokia is introducing the new GPU-powered AirScale capacity plug-in unit as the most efficient path forward. Designed for Nokia’s installed AirScale base, the solution integrates NVIDIA’s accelerated computing into existing network infrastructure, enabling a significant capacity step-change through a simple upgrade path while preserving existing network investments. This approach is also supported by AI-accelerated merchant silicon from Marvell as part of Nokia’s broader ecosystem approach to software-defined AI-RAN architectures. Telecommunication providers can introduce advanced AI capabilities, continuously improve performance through software and extend the value of deployed infrastructure. 

Scale AI-native capacity anywhere
For telecommunication providers seeking maximum deployment flexibility and performance, Nokia is introducing the industry’s first GPU-powered standalone AI-RAN node. It brings AI-accelerated RAN performance to any network environment and supports 4G, 5G and future 6G workloads on a common platform. The solution can be deployed as a standalone node, in clustered configurations or alongside AirScale as a single logical base station, providing operators with a highly flexible path to scale AI-native networks while preserving deployment choice.

Enabling cloud-native AI-RAN
For telecommunication providers embracing cloud-native architectures, Nokia is introducing GPU-powered AI-RAN COTS server solutions delivered through ecosystem partners. The platforms enable an open and secure supply chain while supporting deployment on industry-standard accelerated computing infrastructure, combining cloud-native flexibility with the performance requirements of AI-native radio networks.

Innovation at software speed
Nokia’s AI-RAN marks a fundamental shift from hardware-defined radio networks to software-defined platforms that continuously improve through software and AI innovation. Through Nokia’s new subscription-based commercial model, telecommunication providers gain ongoing access to advanced AI algorithms, spectral efficiency enhancements, network optimization capabilities and future AI-native features that can be activated through software. This approach allows them to benefit from continuous innovation while maximizing long-term returns on infrastructure investments, enabling improved TCO and performance at no hardware premium. Rather than waiting for the next hardware cycle, networks can continuously enhance performance, efficiency, security and resilience as new capabilities become available.

By combining AI-accelerated computing, advanced AI algorithms and an open ecosystem approach, Nokia is helping telecommunication providers unlock greater capacity, stronger economics and continuous innovation while building the foundation for future network evolution.

• Integrates AI, deployable 5G and sensing into a single defense capability
• Accelerates sovereign European defense technologies for the next generation of military missions

9 July 2026
Espoo, Finland – Nokia Defense and NestAI, one of Europe’s fastest-growing AI labs for defense, are advancing their technology partnership with the first operational capabilities being developed under the collaboration established alongside Nokia's and Tesi's €100 million joint investment in NestAI in November 2025.

As European defense investment reaches its highest level in decades, defense forces are accelerating the integration of AI-enabled capabilities into their operations. A defining challenge is ensuring resilient, trusted connectivity in denied environments, where communications, sensing and mission-planning must work seamlessly together for AI-enabled operations to succeed in the field.

The partnership is delivering three integrated operational capabilities:

• AI-enabled command-and-control on deployable 5G networks: bringing together Nokia's deployable 5G networks with NestOS, NestAI's adaptive operating system for modern battlefield operations, to help European forces maintain command and control, support autonomous systems and reduce reliance on fixed communications infrastructure.
• Mission planning with assured connectivity: integrating Nokia’s radio-network planning models into NestOS mission-planning tools, enabling forces to assess, plan and adapt connectivity as part of the mission while reducing the risk of coverage gaps during fast-moving multidomain operations.
• Earlier threat detection and response: combining Nokia’s Integrated Sensing and Communications (ISAC) early-detection capability with NestAI’s multi-sensor tracking to provide operators with earlier, wide-area threat awareness and support faster, more informed decision-making in, even in contested environments with limited connectivity.
  
  

These capabilities are built for the conditions modern forces now face: denied communications, active electronic attack and emerging drone threats that must be detected before dedicated sensors acquire a target. The partnership addresses all three with European-developed technologies built to NATO operational requirements.

“Defense is moving quickly to adopt AI-enabled capabilities, from mission planning to unmanned operations. But AI only works in the field when it has secure, resilient connectivity behind it. Together with NestAI, Nokia is accelerating the sovereign technologies NATO needs to operate, decide and act in the next generation of missions,” said Mikko Hautala, Chief Geopolitical & Government Relations Officer and Chairman, Nokia Defense.

“Most defense AI is built on assumptions about connectivity, sensor access, and infrastructure that do not hold in contested environments. What we are building with Nokia addresses the real conditions European forces face, from the network underneath to the threats at the edge, on technology that Europe develops and controls," said Peter Sarlin, Founder and Executive Chairman, NestAI.

Nokia Defense provides secure, intelligent connectivity for defense in the AI era. Built on Nokia’s global leadership across fixed, mobile, and transport networks, it delivers resilient, mission-ready communications solutions that strengthen national security and support critical operations worldwide.

• Leveraging AWS’s AI and cloud services, Nokia’s Autonomous Network Fabric will help operators transition to networks that operate at machine speed to connect intelligence.
  
  

24 June 2026
Espoo, Finland — Nokia and Amazon Web Services (AWS) today announced they are expanding their collaboration to deliver autonomous networks built for the AI era, making it easier for telecommunication providers to run their full operational stack in the cloud.

Nokia and AWS are collaborating to run Nokia’s Autonomous Networks Fabric on AWS, giving operators access to advanced AI and cloud services required for Level 4 autonomy. This builds on a set of existing digital operations applications from Nokia — covering orchestration, assurance, and unified inventory — already on the platform. Availability is expected later this year.

Nokia’s Autonomous Network Fabric weaves together a broad portfolio that delivers intent-based service orchestration across multi-domain, multi-vendor networks; provides 360-degree observability with AI-powered anomaly detection, root cause analysis, and closed-loop resolution; and offers a single source of truth for network topology and resources.

The Fabric unifies observability, analytics, security, and automation through four core capabilities:

• Unified Data Management across domains.
• Agentic AI for service operations and optimization.
• Digital Twin simulations for proactive impact assessment.
• Intent-Based Networking that translates business goals into automated closed-loop actions.

‘This is how telcos will compete in the AI era’

While legacy network management tools require teams of experts to manually oversee mobile, fixed, and transport networks in silos, Nokia helps operators evolve from static infrastructures to programmable, AI-native platforms that anticipate changing traffic mixes and operate at machine speed to connect intelligence.

“Autonomous networks have gone from far-off vision to business imperative. At Nokia, we move operators toward greater autonomy through the convergence of intent-based networking, agentic AI, and cloud-native architecture. Together with AWS, we’re building a platform that scales operators’ ambitions while maintaining the control and governance they need. This is how telcos will compete in the AI era,” said Oguz Sunay, CTO, AI and Autonomous Networks, Nokia.

Running on AWS, Nokia’s solutions gain elastic scalability, global availability, and broad model choices through cloud AI and ML services — including Amazon Bedrock and Amazon SageMaker — enabling operators to innovate faster while reducing infrastructure costs. Nokia is also engineering an optimized cloud footprint that minimizes compute and storage requirements versus traditional on-premises deployments.

“The shift to autonomous network operations is ultimately about speed and step-change efficiency. Speed to detect, speed to resolve, speed to monetize. Achieving step-change cost efficiency is critical for customers to unlock agentic value in the AI era. Nokia’s decision to optimize its full operational stack on AWS means operators can take advantage of elastic scalability, purpose-built AI and ML services, and the most extensive global infrastructure footprint for wherever their networks operate. Together, we're compressing years of transformation into months, delivering step-change improvements in cost efficiency and revenue growth,” said Amir Rao, global director for Telco Solutions at AWS.

Cloud-based network innovation

Today’s news is the latest in a series of announcements between Nokia and AWS related to cloud-based network innovation. At MWC in March, the companies showcased the industry’s first agentic AI-powered network slicing alongside du and Orange. In February, they announced the world’s first commercial mobile service on 5G Core SaaS, running on Belgium’s Citymesh network.

In addition to these developments, Nokia’s autonomous networks portfolio is already delivering measurable results, with operators achieving automation rates exceeding 90%, service delivery times of four hours or less, and service interruption periods of one minute per year or fewer — along with up to 85% reduction in slice rollout time and up to 50% fewer customer-impacting incidents.

Nokia and AWS are committed to a collaborative innovation agenda that combines Nokia’s telecom-trained AI models and domain expertise with AWS’s AI services to deliver increasingly autonomous network operations. Together, the companies will go to market to help operators evolve their operational stacks, increase autonomous operations and unlock new revenue streams.

• Proof of concept validates cloud-agnostic approach for network operators to scale AI-driven operations, deploy real-time analytics without rewriting code.
  
  

24 June 2026 
Espoo, Finland – Nokia and Databricks today announced the successful completion of a joint proof of concept (PoC) demonstrating a unified, substrate-agnostic data platform designed to support AI-driven autonomous networks. The collaboration shows how telecommunication providers can simplify fragmented data environments and deploy real-time analytics at scale, enabling faster decision-making, improved network performance, and more efficient operations.

The PoC addresses a long-standing industry challenge: Telecom networks typically rely on hundreds of siloed operational and business support systems, each with its own data architecture, making it difficult to apply AI consistently across domains. To truly harness AI and multi-agent systems, operators need a common data platform that can run seamlessly across different cloud environments or on-premise infrastructure, without the need to rewrite code.

The POC confirmed Databricks and Nokia’s ability to develop a joint architecture that efficiently handles the massive scale and real-time ingestion speeds required to feed network data to AI agents for automated, cross-domain decision-making.

“Teaming up with Databricks represents a big step as we work toward building the types of data foundations required for next-generation autonomous networks. By enabling a common, flexible data platform across cloud environments, we can help operators accelerate the adoption of AI and create more efficient, resilient and sustainable networks,” said Oguz Sunay, CTO AI and Autonomous Networks, Nokia.

“Telecom operators are managing increasingly complex networks and need a more consistent way to harness their data. Our collaboration with Nokia demonstrates how a unified data platform can help simplify operations and unlock the value of AI across network domains,” said Nevash Pillay, Global Head of Telecommunications Industry, Databricks.

About the POC
Engineering teams from Nokia and Databricks focused on a real-time performance management use case, simulating analytics ingestion with an intent to scale quickly to match tier-1 operator scale in the cloud. Their work delivered several key technical breakthroughs designed to simplify how telecom operators build and run data-driven services across different environments:

• Cross-platform data pipelines, without coding complexity: Data pipelines were created once and deployed across different platforms without modification. In trials, the same data workflows ran seamlessly on both Databricks and an open-source stack based on Apache Flink, Kafka, and Iceberg, supporting real-time streaming, batch processing, and query-time data products.
  
  
• Vendor-neutral data logic design: To avoid lock-in to any single platform, Nokia engineers developed transformation logic using an abstract, platform-independent expression in Python. By separating the core logic from platform-specific connectors, the same data workflows could be reused across multiple environments.
  
  
• Automated deployment across environments: The teams validated a custom compiler that automatically adapted workflows at deployment. Based on the target environment, it translated the abstract logic into native formats — such as Delta Live Tables for Databricks or Flink SQL for open-source systems — and added the platform-specific connectors, eliminating manual rework and accelerating time to deployment.
  
  
• AI-powered creation of new data products: The project also showcased how AI can streamline operations. Using simple natural language prompts, an intelligent data fabric agent can generate new data products, request human validation, and deploy the pipeline automatically, resulting in faster innovation with less manual effort. In the agentic world, the same mechanism can be leveraged by other agents to create dynamic data products on demand by communicating (agent to agent) with the data fabric agent.
  
  
• Data fabric built for the agentic world:
  
  
  • Query-time data products computing derived metrics, applying filters, aggregating, enriching, or joining data on read instead of duplicating it.
  • Zero-copy sharing, making cross-domain data consumption lightweight and real-time.
  • A mechanism to selectively feed upper temporal layers in the cloud, where agents run retrospective tasks like root-cause analysis on past events.

Moving ahead
Nokia and Databricks plan to continue their collaboration around enhancing autonomous network capabilities, helping operators transition to a future where AI applications increasingly access, correlate, and act on large-scale network data in real time.

• Nokia NSP adds an agentic AI framework that lets operators deploy AI agents grounded in a real-time, accurate network view — enabling them to reason based on trusted data and take guided, explainable actions within operator-defined policies and security boundaries.
• Nokia AI-driven Troubleshooting Agent accelerates root-cause analysis, reduces operational noise, and turns complex IP issues into guided, explainable workflows.
• Framework supports communication with external agents via new AI-based protocols across operators’ multi-vendor, multi-domain networks, empowering them on their journey toward fully autonomous networks.
  
  

11 June 2026 

Espoo, Finland – Nokia today announced an enhancement to its Network Services Platform (NSP), the company’s comprehensive management and automation platform for multi-vendor IP networks, with the introduction of an agentic AI framework designed specifically for IP network operations. The new framework enables network operators to deploy AI agents that can reason over real network context and take guided actions within defined policy and security boundaries.

As IP networks grow in size and complexity with the rise of AI traffic, operators face increasing pressure to improve efficiency and reliability while maintaining full operational control. While AI has the potential to transform network operations, many operators have remained cautious due to concerns around explainability, trust, and risk in production environments. Nokia’s approach with NSP addresses these concerns by embedding agentic AI capabilities directly into the platform that already serves as the authoritative controller for IP networks.

“Appledore has been advocating for operators to focus on the primary importance of quality data and ontological relationships – which are proving far more important than specific AI models for efficient and accurate AI reasoning.  Nokia’s NSP embraces this approach with extensive AI-native infrastructure built on trusted data and operating norms, providing a solid and secure foundation for a myriad of AI use cases. Domain expertise is likely the most critical quality in designing effective automation for complex networks,” said Grant Lenahan, Partner and Principal Analyst, Appledore Research.

NSP grounds AI agents in an accurate and continuously updated view of the network, including topology, protocol behaviour, configuration state, service relationships, and recent network changes. This enables AI agents to reason based on network truth, rather than inferred or fragmented data, and to operate within operator-defined intent, policies, and access controls. The NSP agent framework also allows for communication with external agents via AI-based protocols, such as Model-context protocol (MCP), across operators’ multi-vendor, multi-domain networks empowering them on their journey toward fully autonomous networks.

The first use case built on this new framework is an AI-driven Troubleshooting Agent, aimed at helping operators identify root causes faster, reduce operational noise, and resolve complex IP network issues with greater confidence. This marks a significant step in Nokia’s strategy to help operators adopt AI safely, incrementally, and at scale in live networks.

“The industry is moving quickly toward AI-native operations, but trust remains the deciding factor. We are enhancing NSP with AI agents built on an agent framework in a way that respects how networks are actually operated. This will have a major impact on the way operators manage their networks and will enable them to enhance their operations significantly and accelerate their journey toward autonomous networks with focus on solving real operational problems, starting with high-impact use cases like troubleshooting. This is an incremental, pragmatic step toward AI‑native networks,” said Sasa Nijemcevic, Vice President and General Manager, IP Network Automation software unit, Nokia.

For network operators, the new agentic framework provides a flexible foundation to introduce multiple AI use cases over time without creating siloed solutions. Operators can start with focused, high-confidence scenarios and gradually expand the role of AI as trust builds, using a shared framework that enforces consistent governance and operational controls.

End-users also benefit from this evolution through faster fault resolution, improved service reliability, and reduced likelihood of prolonged or cascading outages—delivering better experiences without increasing operational risk.

This enhancement to NSP, which will be commercially available by the end of 2026, reinforces Nokia’s commitment to enabling trusted, AI‑native network operations, and to helping operators translate AI innovation into real, measurable operational outcomes.
