Ericsson to deliver BSS on AWS 13 MAY 2021 Ericsson teamed with Amazon to deliver its BSS portfolio through Amazon Web Services (AWS), a move which could help the Swedish vendor fend off competition from rivals offering cloud-based options. Mats Karlsson, VP and head of Solution Area BSS at Ericsson, explained in a blog cloud is an important topic in his customer conversations and indicated the vendor may extend access to its portfolio to other public cloud set-ups. “When I talk to customers about their cloud transformations, clear patterns are emerging”, Karlsson wrote. “Service providers want choice…some are working with private cloud, some are moving towards public cloud and some are embracing a hybrid approach. But they also want choice when it comes to cloud providers”.
