Press release
Nokia launches Autonomous Network Fabric to help customers accelerate network automation Nokia Autonomous Network Fabric brings together all the capabilities required to accelerate the journey to full network automation in an open, cloud-native, multi-vendor environment.
Key features include a library of cross-domain correlated data products, telco-trained models (LLM/LAM/ML), integrated security, and AI apps for automation workflows.
Nokia announces an expanded collaboration with Google Cloud that will make Nokia's Autonomous Network Fabric available to deploy anywhere customers need it, on Google Cloud, on premises, and in hybrid cloud environments.
18 June 2025
Espoo, Finland – Nokia today announced its Autonomous Networks Fabric , the industry's first suite of telco-trained AI models, integrated security, and AI apps to accelerate network automation and enable operators to easily roll out new services. Autonomous Network Fabric is a unifying intelligence layer that weaves together observability, analytics, security, and automation across every network domain; allowing a network to behave as one adaptive system, regardless of vendor, architecture, or deployment model.
Additionally, Nokia is announcing an expanded collaboration with Google Cloud to enable customers to deploy Nokia's Autonomous Network Fabric as a SaaS application running on Google Cloud, on-premises with Google Distributed Cloud, and in hybrid cloud environments.
Over the past few years, operators have started to move toward fully autonomous networks. However, they are held back by legacy systems, siloed processes, and fragmented data. With Nokia's Autonomous Network Fabric, operators now have a fully integrated suite that features unified data management, 360-degree observability, and explainable AI. Nokia's Autonomous Network Fabric enables automation at scale, reducing the complexity of automation while allowing operators to improve reliability and operational cost savings by quickly testing new ideas and integrating those that deliver desired benefits.
'As networks become more autonomous, they will require different forms of AI—from classical algorithms to language-based systems and intelligent agents—to each contribute distinct capabilities for operators. Nokia's new tools can help operators to manage their infrastructure, services, and cyber risks by applying AI that is trained on industry-specific data and enriched with real-time situational awareness,' said Andy Hicks, Senior Principal Analyst, GlobalData.
Nokia's Autonomous Networks Fabric will leverage Google Cloud's generative AI, including Google Cloud's Vertex AI and BigQuery, to deliver agentic-driven workflows for network operations. This includes real-time monitoring and visibility into network traffic patterns, improving subscriber experience, anomaly detection, zero-touch remediation of performance issues, and support for elastic scale-out and disaster recovery to the cloud.
Nokia and Google Cloud are making it easier for telecom companies to run Nokia's 5G core network on Google's cloud infrastructure. They are also joining forces with a major European operator to build a smarter, more automated network. By combining Nokia's telecom data and automation capabilities with Google's AI tools, they aim to create an environment where developers can innovate and rapidly scale network automation.
'In an era of increasingly complex and vulnerable networks, customers are eager for fully autonomous networks, which depend on good data. There is no good AI without good data. Nokia's Autonomous Network Fabric lays the foundation and applies our deep network expertise and agentic AI-optimized workflows together with Google Cloud to accelerate customer outcomes,' said Kal De, SVP Product and Engineering, Cloud and Network Services, Nokia.
'This is another step in our deep partnership with Nokia to strengthen network reliability, proactively detect and resolve network issues, and turn data into value for predictable and high-performing networks. Nokia's Autonomous Network Fabric taps Nokia's deep telecom domain knowledge combined with Google Cloud's AI tools to provide operators with a comprehensive approach for accelerating network automation,' said Muninder Singh Sambi, Vice President and General Manager, Networking and Security, Google Cloud.
With Nokia's Autonomous Network Fabric, customer will benefit from the following capabilities:
Unified Data Management: All relevant network data is collected, curated, correlated, and published as data products leveraging a data mesh architecture. Data is virtually federated with the ability to design and construct new data products rapidly in a low-code/no-code environment. Operators can use logic or AI/ML to create cutting-edge data assets that can be used and reused to power automation.
360-degree Observability: The Autonomous Network Fabric federates the use and distribution of data and AI across the organization, monitoring chain of custody from end to end. This ensures quality and consistency in automation.
Explainable AI: Powerful telco-trained LLMs support all automation through a rich knowledge engine that gives a clear reasoning for how data is interpreted, how issues are analyzed, and why certain actions are recommended.

This Global REIT Is Riding Asia's AI Wave Straight to the Bank

Equinix's AI-ready Jakarta facility establishes critical infrastructure ahead of competitors in Indonesia's digital boom. Operating 270 data centers globally with 98% customer retention, Equinix demonstrates remarkable stability in the digital infrastructure space. Despite heavy modernization investments, Equinix maintains financial strength with nearly $3 billion in cash and $7.6 billion in available liquidity. 10 stocks we like better than Equinix › Equinix (NASDAQ: EQIX) is a powerhouse in digital infrastructure and part of a new class of innovative real estate investment trusts (REITs) laying the groundwork to become the future of real estate investing. It has a strong history of capitalizing on international technology trends that traditional REITs can't match. With a strategic expansion in Indonesia, Equinix is positioning itself for explosive growth, and Wall Street is beginning to take notice. Asia is becoming the global epicenter of digital demand, and Indonesia is leading the charge. It's attracting major investments in cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), and fintech. By entering the market early and scaling aggressively, Equinix is developing a strategic advantage that will be tough for competitors to match. Indonesia's data center market is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8% to $3.79 billion through 2030. Cloud giants like Amazon Web Services and Alphabet's Google Cloud have already announced major investments, but their platforms need physical infrastructure to function. That's what makes Equinix's expansion into Jakarta so strategic. Its newly opened data center is no ordinary server farm. Built to support intensive computing tasks like training and running AI systems, Equinix is creating the critical backbone necessary for digital business growth in Indonesia. This could make Equinix one of tech's most valuable players. The average analyst price target sees Equinix at $1,009, 10% percent higher than it currently sits, a nod to its forward-looking strategy and savvy market expansion. In addition to its Indonesian assets, Equinix operates 270 data centers across five continents and 35 countries. It has a great track record with its customers, retaining 98% of them. As of Q1 2025, Equinix reported over $2.1 billion in annual adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA). This strong combination of global scale, customer loyalty, and reliable earnings is exactly what sets the stage for Equinix's move into Jakarta to be a success. While it's not the highest-dividend REIT, Equinix pays investors 2% annually. But considering its growth trajectory looks more like a tech company than a traditional REIT, that's not too bad. Equinix does face potential pressures though. Their total capital expenditures for 2025 are projected between $3.4 billion and $3.7 billion, with non-recurring expenditures accounting for around 95% of that. This significant investment is partly due to the need to modernize legacy data centers to meet new levels of demand. While these upgrades are essential, they represent a substantial financial commitment that could impact short-term profitability. That said, Equinix ended Q1 2025 with roughly $2.95 billion in cash and cash equivalents and an ample $7.6 billion in total available liquidity. The balance sheet looks sturdy enough to fund expansion without putting shareholders at undue risk. Geopolitical tensions are also on the periphery of investor concerns. As Equinix operates globally, it must navigate regulatory, monetary, and political risks in emerging markets. But these risks appear to be well managed by the company's leadership, and its long-term leases, high renewal rates, and diversified customer base provide stability. Some investors still think REITs are too risky and don't deliver enough value. Those perceptions are often based on underperforming traditional sectors like retail or office space. That's where tech-powered REITs like Equinix come in. Gone are the days when investing in real estate meant buying a piece of something on the ground. Now you're buying into the cloud. Even in comparison to peers like Digital Realty, Equinix still stands out. It has a stronger international footprint, a more premium client base, and better historical uptime. If you're looking for a REIT that combines growth potential with resilience in the digital age, Equinix is arguably a top-tier pick. AI is only as powerful as the infrastructure behind it, and Equinix is building the digital backbone on which the future will run. Jakarta may just be one dot on the map, but it signals Equinix is putting itself at the forefront of the global shift. With recurring revenue, global scale, and a pioneering foothold in high-growth markets like Indonesia, this REIT could quietly become one of the most important tech stocks of the next decade. Investors looking to profit from AI's global expansion without the volatility of pure-play tech stocks may want to give Equinix a closer look. It might not be a flashy choice, but it's in a solid state and could be the smartest upgrade your portfolio makes this year.

Penumbra may gain market share in peripheral embolisation coils with Ruby XL

Penumbra has announced US Food and Drug Administration approval for its Ruby XL system, which includes three coils: the Ruby XL, the POD XL and the Packing Coil XL. The Ruby XL coil is a device used in vascular embolisation, a procedure to block or close off blood vessels, and can be used to frame large aneurysms, while the POD XL is designed for use in high-flow vessels and the Packing Coil XL is designed to adjust to the shape of any vessel up to 70cm in length. All Ruby XL system coils can be delivered through a 0.035-inch diagnostic catheter. The system is expected to enable Penumbra to increase its market share in peripheral embolisation coils, according to leading data and analytics company GlobalData. According to GlobalData's US healthcare facility invoicing database, Penumbra currently holds the majority market share for peripheral embolisation coils. Its new coil system allows for peripheral embolisation procedures to be done on a wider range of aneurysm sizes and in longer vessels. If the Ruby XL coil is widely adopted by physicians, Penumbra may be able to capture half the entire market. The approval of the new coil could put a bigger gap between Penumbra and its competitors in the market. Physicians may choose Ruby XL coils for their procedures in order to gain better control of large aneurysms. The Ruby XL system may come with cost savings for consumers as it delivers more volume per coil than other available coils. The average selling price (ASP) of these coils ranges from approximately $900 to $2,000. Already in the middle of this range with its current coils, Penumbra has a competitive advantage for new products. If they come in with a competitive ASP, Penumbra may displace competitor coils for relevant procedures. Penumbra stands to maintain its market lead and possibly increase its market share as the purchasing of the Ruby XL system begins. GlobalData will continue to monitor market trends as purchasing picks up. It is expected that facilities will begin purchasing these coils in June 2025.
