Affirmed Networks

Affirmed Networks is a company that provides fully virtualized and cloud-native mobile solutions for network operators. Its technology enables operators to handle more traffic, simplify network operations, and rapidly create and launch new revenue-generating services. Affirmed Networks' solutions are integrated with Microsoft's Azure for Operators initiative, which aims to help operators transform their networks and services to the cloud.

The company's solutions are designed to support 5G connectivity, offering high bandwidth, massive density, and low-latency connectivity capable of supporting new enterprise and consumer services. Affirmed Networks' cloud-native 5G core network functions can run on various platforms, providing operators with the opportunity to modernize their network infrastructure in a monetizable way.

Affirmed Networks has disrupted the mobile industry by delivering high-performance, low-cost, virtualized 4G evolved packet core and cloud-native 5G core network functions. As part of Microsoft Azure for Operators, the company leverages hybrid-edge cloud platforms, AI-driven automation, and advanced analytics services to reduce operational costs and accelerate new revenue opportunities for operators.

In September 2018, Affirmed Networks launched its "Mobile Network as a Service" solution on Amazon Web Services (AWS), enabling mobile operators to quickly and economically deliver both 4G and 5G services over a scalable cloud infrastructure without excessive capital investments. This solution significantly lowers the total cost of ownership for delivering next-generation mobile services.
