In April 2020, T-Mobile made a competitive leap forward that transformed the telecommunications market in the US. The company acquired Sprint, starting a merger that formed the nation’s largest 5G network.
Of course, the expansion also carried significant risk. In the intensely competitive telco market, customers offered no grace period for the merger. T-Mobile needed to integrate two large networks while continuing to deliver consistent reliability and quality of service across the board.
AI, Cloud
Making it happen depends on network management. T-Mobile is using tools from IBM Cloud Pak® for Watson AIOps to integrate management, turning two vast networks into one and using AI-powered automation to maximize both reliability and efficiency.
