GlobalLogic and Nokia join forces to accelerate innovation in 5G enterprise solutions through advanced network API use cases – CRN

GlobalLogic Inc., announced that it is partnering with Nokia to accelerate the adoption of advanced 5G and 4G enterprise solutions. Through Nokia’s Network as Code platform and developer portal, GlobalLogic will drive innovation across key enterprise verticals, with an initial focus on the automotive, industrial and financial sectors, creating transformative use cases that deliver measurable business value.

By leveraging Nokia’s Network as Code platform, GlobalLogic’s team of software developers can seamlessly tap into advanced network capabilities, enabling the creation of new, network-aware applications that function across diverse network architectures. This platform empowers developers with Software Development Kits (SDKs) and comprehensive Network API documentation, providing the technical tools needed to innovate quickly and efficiently.

GlobalLogic will focus initially on use cases designed to enhance operational efficiency, fraud management, customer experience and unlock new revenue streams. Leveraging 5G-powered Network APIs, industrial and automotive companies can transform worker safety, operational efficiency, and help achieve sustainability targets. Connected devices, such as smart helmets and wearables, can utilise network functions to track real-time worker locations and integrate IoT data, including health metrics and environmental factors like gas levels or temperature, triggering real-time alerts to prevent safety hazards. AI enabled predictive maintenance and digital twins ensure safe, efficient operations by identifying faults early, while XR/VR solutions enable remote plant maintenance and immersive training, reducing travel and emissions. In the financial industry, integrating API-driven network insights, device authentication and AI empowers real-time fraud prevention, secures financial transactions, and delivers personalised value-added services, elevating customer trust and experience.

“The Network as Code platform fosters a unified ecosystem by bringing together telco networks, systems integrators, and developers worldwide,” said Ashay Punekar, Vice President Communications & Network Providers Business Unit at GlobalLogic. “Through this partnership, we are positioned to not only accelerate 5G innovation, but also redefine the way enterprises interact with and benefit from network technologies, helping communication service providers to monetise their 5G investments”, added Sameer Tikoo, Group Vice President & General Manager, Communications & Network Providers Business Unit at GlobalLogic.

“With our Network as Code platform, GlobalLogic will benefit from having choice, flexibility, and extreme automation to fit its business model and create new value in connecting to ecosystems of applications and services. Leveraging its digital engineering expertise, GlobalLogic is well-positioned to harness this innovation for seamless integration and enhanced connectivity. As a B2B technology innovation leader, Nokia is driving the next evolution of networking to enable people, machines, and devices to interact in real-time like never before”, said Shkumbin Hamiti, Head of Network Monetisation Platform, Cloud and Network Services at Nokia.
