Building an Open Network with Channel Partners

As an open, disaggregated, distributed and cloud-native architecture, the DriveNets solution is based on multiple partnerships, allowing the network owner to build a best-of-breed infrastructure.

DriveNets cooperates with four types of partners:

• Channel partners: providing local integration, implementation, support and other services
• Technology partners: providing technology building blocks that enable higher performance and scale
• Hardware partners: offering a variety of hardware options upon which the DriveNets software solution can be implemented
• Application partners: adding network functionality such as security and 5G to the solution ecosystem

DriveNets is continuously expanding our partner ecosystem, thereby allowing any customer, in any location and any network scenario, to choose best-of-breed building blocks for its network.

A lot of the operators have discovered if you move away from the house brands to the young companies like DriveNets, they tend to be more agile.
