Cross-domain autonomy: Orchestrating fiber, core, cloud, RAN and satellite

October 6, 2026
14:00-15:30
Innovate Stage
Autonomous Networks
Presentation: Designing the autonomous network fabric 
As networks become increasingly distributed across terrestrial, cloud, edge, and non-terrestrial environments, CSPs are moving towards intelligent, intent-driven orchestration across every network domain. This session explores how operators are building the foundations for end-to-end autonomous operations across increasingly complex infrastructures. 
  • Orchestrating services across fiber, RAN, core, cloud, and satellite networks  
  • Using intent-driven operations to automate cross-domain decision-making  
  • Dynamically optimizing performance, capacity, and resilience in real time  
  • Building the operational foundations for end-to-end network autonomy 
Panel: How close are we to end-to-end autonomy?
The future autonomous network will span mobile, fiber, cloud, edge, transport, and satellite environments, orchestrated dynamically through AI-native operations and intent-based automation. This panel explores how CSPs are approaching cross-domain orchestration, ubiquitous connectivity, and end-to-end autonomous assurance across increasingly complex infrastructures. 
  • Can we really orchestrate the entire network? 
  • Where does cross-domain autonomy work - and where does it fail? 
  • What breaks when you try to scale across domains? 
  • How far can intent-driven operations go? 
  • What does it take to deliver connectivity everywhere? 
Additional topics covered in this session block may include:
  • Real-time decisioning across the network stack  
  • Breaking vendor silos in autonomous networks  
  • End-to-end assurance across every domain 
  • AI-driven traffic routing across the network
