- The GSMA representing the biggest mobile phone operators, shared plans to launch a new united interface providing developers universal access to their networks, speeding up the delivery of new services and products.
- The GSMA will introduce the Open Gateway portal at its annual Mobile World Congress in Barcelona on Monday, Bloomberg reports citing Director General Mats Granryd’s interview.
- These include an immersive concert experience using Application programming interfaces (APIs) for Device Location, Carrier Billing, and Authentication; a live ‘jam session’ from the 5G Future Forum and immersive gaming, and high definition video showcase based on the Quality on Demand (QoD) API.
- AT&T Inc (NYSE:T), China Mobile Ltd, Deutsche Telekom AG (OTC:DTEGF) (OTC:DTEGY), and Vodafone Group Plc (NASDAQ:VOD) are among the 21 GSMA members that will use the interface.
- Mobile network operators collaborated to become more attractive partners for technology giants helping developers to build services that can serve multiple networks simultaneously for new and better-running services.
- Major cloud providers such as Amazon Inc’s (NASDAQ:AMZN) AWS and Microsoft Inc’s (NASDAQ:MSFT) Azure back the project.
- José María Álvarez-Pallete López, GSMA Board Chairman and Chairman & CEO of Telefónica, said: “
- GSMA Open Gateway will enable single points of access to ultra-broadband networks and provide a catalyst for immersive technologies and Web3 – giving them the ability to fulfill their potential and reach critical mass.
- Collaboration amongst telecom operators and cloud providers is crucial in this new digital ecosystem.
- “By applying the concept of interconnection for operators to the API economy, developers can utilize technology once, for services such as identity, cybersecurity, or billing, but with the potential to be integrated with every operator worldwide. This is a profound change in the way we design and deliver services,” said Granryd.
- “Price Action: VOD shares traded higher by 3.30% at $12.07 on the last check Monday.
