Joe Hoffman, Principal Analyst Omdia, published a new Subscriber Data Management Analyst view for 2024.  Entitled “CSP need 5G Subscriber Data Management for New Revenue Streams”, it highlighted the continuing need for advanced data management solutions for subscriber (user) and device data – which in turn drives new revenue as well as achieving a more complete evolution to 5G architecture (rather than just a faster than 4G network). These core systems are also a part of the move to Cloud-native virtualized and automated deployment architectures (CI/CD). There is a $1.3 billion market today for SDM functions and services.

The data based insight in the detailed opinion discusses how communication service providers (CSP) could use a fully 5G subscriber data management architecture (including universal data repository [UDR]) to broaden enterprise and consumer revenue with 5G enhancements for fixed wireless access (FWA), network slicing and private networks. It also highlights key recommendations for CSPs and Vendors alike in building system solutions that both embrace standards and a cloud native approach but also offer the flexibility to develop new business.  Reflecting also on the right integration and evolutionary approach to working with existing SDM architecture.
