As the traditional land-line phone business migrates into the new mobile wireless smartphone world, it is causing some telecom companies to lose their way and stumble while others are seeing the opportunity to create whole new futures for them. It provides major opportunities for telecommunications service providers and operators to reduce cost; generate new revenues and differentiate in the cloud ecosystem with the network services.

1. Migration to cloud will drive
the changes in wired and
wireless carriers!

3. As the traditional land-line phone business migrates into the
new mobile wireless smartphone world, it is causing some
telecom companies to lose their way and stumble while
others are seeing the opportunity to create whole new
futures for them. It provides major opportunities for
telecommunications service providers and operators to
reduce cost; generate new revenues and differentiate in the
cloud ecosystem with the network services.

4. Cloud computing benefits
from service provider
perspective:

5. Cost Saving:
Cloud providers can host software at very lower cost than enterprise
customers. Cloud computing service providers can allocate the facilities
at lower cost which others enterprise service providers can’t provide. So
other than web browser and network capacity there is no other hardware
or software cost.
Highly scalable and flexible infrastructure:
Massive scalable engine allows building highly scalable service for
customers and partners. With the help of cloud technology infrastructure
scalability with demand variation is possible.

6. Efficiency and flexibility of resource management:
Service provider can use more efficient and flexible resources using
virtualization technique in cloud technology. If IT operations are easily
available on infrastructure level.
Reliability of service with high availability:
Here the workloads can be spread across many facilities, and even
across clouds, redundant instances of applications can be used to avoid
downtime and increase the availability.

7. Energy Efficiency:
cloud computing can be an inherently energy-efficient technology that its
potential for significant energy savings that have so far focused on
hardware aspects, can be fully explored with respect to system operation
and networking aspects.

8. Top disruptions that will drive
the most change in
telecommunications by 2020
are -

9. Integration with content provider :
Being connected continues to become cheaper. In the information value
chain content, service and product delivery captures more attention than
connectivity. By 2020, it is likely that one or more major telecom
companies will be acquired by a content company.
Mobility:
Growth in mobile connectivity is increasing than fixed land line
connections. This shows most of the growth is happening in developing
world. For these people, mobile are cheaper, convenient, and more
useful, even when landline connectivity is an option.

10. IoT:
The next major trend that will impact is the explosion of connected
devices. IoT will add billions of new connected data sources globally by
2020. IOT is going to be next major trend that will create the explosion of
connected devices.
Market Saturation:
Elder population as they retire will enter retirement communities and
assisted living facilities which are fully digitized in order to be as efficient
as possible. Older population will be forced into using these technologies
by the world around them and will likely consume vastly more bandwidth
than they, or their carriers, ever imagined. So here cloud technology will
be very useful.

11. So finally with these trends, Communication Service Providers
are being stimulated to transform themselves into a platform of
opportunities harnessing the digital forces— Mobility &
Pervasive Computing, Big Data and Analytics, Social Media,
Cloud Computing, Artificial Intelligence and Robotics to realign
their business processes, products, and services.
