These collaborations over the past year have led to a number of innovations, transforming the telecommunications sector, including:
- Snowflake’s work with AWS helps resolve technical network queries, reducing resolution time from days to minutes. This is done by compiling data from cell towers, physical addresses and points of interest and combining it with customer loyalty information and details harvested from Billing Support Systems (BSS). and operations support systems (OSS), enabled by a large language model (LLM). on Amazon SageMaker.
- Snowflake worked with AWS to create GenTwin, an innovative network operations solution combining private 5G, generative AI using Amazon Bedrock, and digital twins using AWS IoT TwinMaker to deliver unparalleled efficiency, automation, and adaptability to industries , heralding an era of transformation for network management.
- Snowflake is collaborating with Mapbox to introduce a holistic digital twin capability by combining Snowflake’s geospatial telecom data layers with Maxar’s high-definition terrain and imagery, as well as Mapbox’s ability to render and process cellular coverage at scale. This will provide telecommunications organizations with a new level of visualization accuracy, helping to improve customer experience and give users a competitive advantage in an evolving connectivity landscape.
- Snowflake won the TM Forum Moonshot Catalyst Award in collaboration with AWS, Amdocs, Vodafone and Carbon Footprint Ltd. The joint solution enables telecommunications companies to better analyze and understand their carbon emissions, while helping them reduce the carbon footprint of their product offerings.
- Snowflake collaborates with Amdocs Data Intelligence to offer SaaS-based solutions in delivering telecommunications use cases, such as billing and payment, audit and compliance, and fraud detection.
- Snowflake is working with Ericsson to create a data-driven architecture that will enable operators to create innovative applications using the Ericsson Intelligent Automation Platform (EIAP) ecosystem. rApp application developers will be able to seamlessly access the communications service provider’s strategic and operational IT systems through the secure data sharing capability of the Snowflake Telecom Cloud. rApps will also be able to consume third-party datasets such as weather and maps for use in the design of their applications via the same mechanisms.
