Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) and Ericsson (ERIC) said Thursday that they are launching a joint validation lab designed to help telecommunications service providers overcome the challenges of deploying multi-vendor infrastructure.
The lab will focus on testing and validating a cloud-native, artificial intelligence-enabled, dual-mode 5G core solution that supports both 4G and 5G networks, the companies added.
The collaboration will enable integration of Ericsson's dual-mode 5G Core solution with HPE's ProLiant Gen12 servers, HPE Juniper Networking's fabric, and Red Hat OpenShift's cloud-native platform, according to the statement.
The validation lab will be located near Ericsson's headquarters in Sweden and is expected to be operational by the end of 2025, the companies said.
