In this episode of The Current: Insights from LightRiver’s Experts, Marcelo McAndrew, Vice President of Software Product Management at LightRiver, explains how growing demands from AI, cloud computing, and data centers are pushing transport networks beyond traditional operational models.
As networks expand across multiple vendors, technologies, and systems, operators face a new challenge: not just managing the network, but managing the systems that manage the network.
Marcelo explores:
• Why network automation is critical for modern transport networks
• The impact of AI and cloud growth on network complexity
• Challenges of multi-vendor, multi-layer network environments
• The need for a platform-based approach to network management
• The shift from digital transformation to autonomous, intelligent networks
As the industry evolves, intelligent automation and autonomous systems will define how networks are planned, operated, and optimized.
