Key Trends Shaping Unified Communications in Enterprises

Boost pan-enterprise collaboration and productivity with unified communications

To deliver differentiated, compelling, and unified communications, CSPs must capitalize on five key trends:

• Microservices-driven software: Use microservices to provision highly available and scalable communications applications swiftly and flexibly

• Transition to cloud native: Adopt virtualized network functions (VNFs) and virtualized ‘containers’ to redesign networks for high service availability and resiliency

• AI converging with UC: Build AI-based tools to automate predictable, simple workflows

• UCaaS adoption: Customize application functions and user interfaces through Unified Communication as a Service (UCaaS) to enhance workplace collaboration

• Leverage 5G for UC: Harness cloud-native network function virtualization (NFV) and mobile edge computing (MEC) for self-healing, scalable networks
