Telcos’ Open API use outpaces vendor supply, reveals TM Forum survey
Summary
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Digital Transformation Asia, Kuala Lumpur — TM Forum, the industry association driving digital transformation through collaboration, today announced the results of ongoing surveys of TM Forum Open API adoption by communications service providers (CSPs) and software product vendors. The goal of TM Forum’s Open APIs is to enable zero-touch interoperability and zero-touch partnering, helping service providers improve agility and reduce IT integration and maintenance costs. Today, the Forum is releasing a report based on the results of voluntary participation in the surveys in order to give the industry a snapshot of Open API adoption and progress toward zero-touch interoperability and partnering. “CSP intent is higher than vendor maturity which means that demand outstrips supply and leads CSPs to take matters into their own hands when transforming legacy IT. Today, our focus is on supporting members as they navigate their unique digital transformation journeys, providing practical and proven assets and tools to accelerate execution and platforms to facilitate collaborative problem solving and innovation.
