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.
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.

- 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

- 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?
- 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
