What if the next breakthrough in communication isn't about seeing or hearing more, but about feeling present? We can hear each other. We can see each other. Yet even the most advanced communication technologies rarely make us feel as though we are truly sharing the same space. That is about to change.

Press Release Summary bullets Nokia Defense joins Finnish-Nordic consortium to strengthen counter-UAS border security Secure, scalable connectivity enables real-time threat detection and interoperable mission-critical operations across land and sea Nokia today announced its participation in a new industrial consortium led by the Finnish Border Guard to develop the next-generation counter-drone capabilities for patrol vehicles and boats.

“Our TransGO network refresh will boost digitization and enhance mobility and cloud services. Faster connectivity speeds will enable closer to real-time information, helping to ensure Transpower can continue to meet the changing needs of energy consumers across Aotearoa (New Zealand).” Solution components Industry vertical Our solutions help power utilities evolve their grids to address new energy demands, optimize power distribution and support new business models.

Press Release Summary bullets Proof of concept validates cloud-agnostic approach for network operators to scale AI-driven operations, deploy real-time analytics without rewriting code. Nokia and Databricks today announced the successful completion of a joint proof of concept (PoC) demonstrating a unified, substrate-agnostic data platform designed to support AI-driven autonomous networks.

Press Release Summary bullets Leveraging AWS’s AI and cloud services, Nokia’s Autonomous Network Fabric will help operators transition to networks that operate at machine speed to connect intelligence. Nokia and Amazon Web Services (AWS) today announced they are expanding their collaboration to deliver autonomous networks built for the AI era, making it easier for telecommunication providers to run their full operational stack in the cloud.

Adapted from NANOG97 talk, June 2026, done jointly by Comcast Threat Research Lab (CTRL) and Nokia Deepfield  Emergency Response Team. The figures below reflect a fast-moving, adversarial environment, so treat them as point-in-time estimates. A year later, what changed? A year ago, at NANOG94, I warned about a strange new kind of DDoS traffic originating from within consumer networks.

Press Release Summary bullets As AI becomes the dominant workload of the network economy, Nokia’s new software and agentic frameworks help telecom providers improve network performance, reliability, and operational efficiency at scale. Holistic approach covers Autonomous Networks Agent Library, Autonomous Networks Suite, MantaRay SMO, and new AI-driven frameworks for IP, fixed, and optical networks.

Press Release Summary bullets Nokia integrates specialized AI agents into Nokia Assurance Center to dramatically accelerate network automation and issue resolution for telecommunication providers. Nokia and Google Cloud today announced an expanded partnership that will integrate Google's Gemini models into Nokia's network software suite, the Nokia Assurance Center.

The moment that changes everything in network operations is not dramatic. Something starts to drift. A capacity threshold edges over. A latency tail starts to fatten. By the time a ticket opens, the condition has already impacted operations, customers, and potentially revenue. This is the gap that automation cannot close, not because automation has failed, but because the operating environment has fundamentally changed.

Press Release Summary bullets Nokia and t3 Broadband partner with Aureon to deliver up to 100 Tb/s of AI-ready connectivity in the initial deployment with the ability to scale up to 400 Tb/s. New optical route connects a North Dakota data center to the Chicago metro area. Deployment demonstrates how regional operators can support hyperscale AI infrastructure.
