For its second year the TM Forum’s DTW23 – Ignite found itself in Copenhagen after a COVID hiatus and a much-needed venue change from a stuffy old convention center in Nice, France. There’s
always a trade-off though; by using the much more up-to-date venue of the Bella Center, TMForum had to sacrifice an impressive array of walkable amenities. A 15-20 minute taxi ride outside of the
city center meant that attendees who wanted to remain on the grounds of the expo were forced to stay in either a corporate paradise or hellscape depending on their personal preferences…

Nearly 70 percent of enterprises now leverage public cloud services for at least a portion of their technology infrastructure. While some have transitioned their environments fully into the
cloud, others are using hybrid solutions. This makes sense, as more and more companies transition to the cloud but realize that not every application should live there. In addition, integrating
cloud solutions and deciding how to marry the cloud environment with an existing network are formidable tasks. They require expertise and a thorough understanding of how enterprises should connect
their infrastructure, users, and clients to the cloud for a successful and worthwhile cloud experience for everyone in the enterprise…

Ask most laypeople, and they would say that 5G has not lived up to the hype. For years, mainstream media and wireless carriers have touted the fifth-generation mobile broadband technology
known as 5G as no less than a world-changing, “fourth industrial revolution,” with examples that include the ability to empower robot surgeries through rural telemedicine and creating completely
interconnected “smart cities” of the future. In truth, 5G technology does have immense potential, but has also proved more difficult to implement and scale, leaving many customers underwhelmed at
best, or dismissive of the promise of 5G as nothing more than hype…
