At this week’s Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Orange, Telefónica, and Vodafone, in collaboration with Ericsson and Vonage, are demonstrating an API that exposes 5G network resources for application developers.
The idea in exposing advanced network functionalities for app-developers is enable a better user experience for applications such as Blacknut, Zoom, and Vonage while providing a monetization pathway for mobile operators.
The ambition is for all three operators to use the same QoD API, defined, developed and documented in CAMARA, the open source project driven by Linux Foundation in collaboration with GSMA, which is available for all operators to implement thereby maximizing the potential benefits for the developer community.
