Nokia, Microsoft Automate Telecom Networks With AI Agents

Telecom engineers pairing Nokia Data Suite with Microsoft Fabric are moving deploy agentic network automation across infrastructure.
The partnership expansion, which delivers a unified data foundation for telecom providers, also unites structured network telemetry with cloud-scale analytics, establishing a shared operational environment for software agents across the network stack. Operators gain direct access to domain data through prebuilt connectors and bypass multi-week manual ingestion projects.
Speaking on the partnership, senior vice president of Autonomous Networks at Nokia, Vivek Jaiswal said: “Nokia and Microsoft are bringing the right data, at the right time, for the right reason to telecom operators worldwide. Together, we are helping networks evolve from static infrastructures into programmable, AI-native platforms.”
The architecture links Nokia’s modular data products directly into Microsoft Fabric’s OneLake storage environment. Nokia packages these feeds with glass-box data quality verification and telco-specific semantic modelling. This design delivers transparent, explainable inputs for downstream machine reasoning. Carriers integrate these telecom pipelines with enterprise IT and third-party records on-demand.
Data preparation in carrier operations routinely stalls for weeks under conventional ingestion pipelines. The combined stack circumvents those delays by staging query-ready assets directly for Fabric tools, including Foundry, Power BI, and Microsoft 365 Copilot.
Telecoms run closed-loop routines and automated root-cause analysis across live multi-vendor footprints. The software deploys across hybrid topology, private cloud, and on-premises environments, so regional operating units can satisfy strict data sovereignty rules.
Corporate vice president of Worldwide Telco & Media at Microsoft, Silvia Candiani said “telecom providers are ready to move AI from experimentation into everyday network operations, but that requires trusted data, strong governance, and platforms that can scale.
“By bringing together Nokia Data Suite and Microsoft Fabric, we are creating a faster path to turn complex network data into actionable intelligence.”
Autonomous agents execute real-time remediation across several live deployment patterns. In voice over new radio (VoNR) deployments, automated agents maintain 360-degree observability across service layers, physical network nodes, and subscriber sessions. These routines spot operational anomalies instantly, trace underlying causes, and dispatch remedial commands.
Field teams deploy targeted models for radio access network (RAN) diagnostics. The system’s ‘Geo-experience’ engine correlates subscriber sessions with physical radio frequency measurements and geographic coordinates.
Network teams isolate degraded mobile performance and target cell coverage deficits. The software evaluates performance trends for standard 4G and 5G connections alongside dedicated network slices, then generates concrete remedial steps for local engineers.
