AI insights with actionable automation accelerate the journey to autonomous networks

Red Hat News - Thu, 02/05/2026 - 08:00
The telecommunications industry is accelerating its digital transformation, driven by the increasing complexity of modern networks and the demand for faster, more reliable services rollout. To meet these demands, operators are turning to autonomous intelligent networks, designed to ingest massive amounts of data and autonomously execute actions at high speed. The journey to autonomous intelligent networks is not a technology project—it is a mandatory operational shift to protect margins and accelerate time-to-service. This has led to concepts such as a DarkNOC, a network operations center th
