Nokia Mobile Core Early Access live hosted environment

Nokia has announced Mobile Core Early Access, a live hosted environment that provides an up-close look at the software driving advanced network connectivity in the AI era. Available globally to telecommunication providers and enterprises, the initiative is designed to shorten the path from technology awareness to informed planning, validation and adoption.

As mobile networks evolve to support AI-driven services, automation, and increasingly demanding enterprise applications, operators need faster, more practical ways to evaluate opportunities for innovation. Mobile Core Early Access was created to address these challenges, allowing participants to see how new capabilities operate in practice. In turn, they can assess business relevance, operational requirements and deployment considerations earlier in the decision-making process.

The initiative enables participants to explore the latest mobile core capabilities and use cases as they become available; evaluate innovations in a live, end-to-end environment that includes network functions, radios and devices; gain visibility into how new capabilities operate across cloud-native network functions, user interfaces and operational workflows; support technology planning and readiness by understanding deployment considerations earlier in the process; and reduce the effort required to establish initial testing environments and align stakeholders on use cases and business value.

For those requiring extended access, broader flexibility or deeper integration with their own environments, Nokia offers a paid option to support more advanced evaluation, experimentation and validation activities.
