I’ve noticed that telecom operators are cleaning up their data disasters

I’m sensing a trend within telecommunications: Operators are on a mission to clean up their company records. They’ve been limping along for years—even decades—keeping track of their business records in multiple antiquated systems. Many of them have an even bigger mess because they’ve acquired smaller companies over the years, and those companies came with different antiquated record-keeping systems, which were never fully integrated into the larger company. This is probably for a few reasons. Firstly, it’s apparent that artificial intelligence requires clean, accessible data to train new applications and keep businesses relevant in the 21st century. Having clean and organized data is also critical for future mergers & acquisitions purposes.
