Amdocs (NASDAQ:DOX), a leading provider of software and services to communications and media companies, and Google Cloud announced a strategic partnership to deliver Amdocs’ leading OSS and BSS systems on Google Cloud and to create solutions and services to help communications companies modernize, automate and digitize with the cloud.

• Help CSPs leverage data and analytics to improve services: Amdocs will make its Data Hub and Data Intelligence analytics solutions available on Google Cloud. Amdocs and Google Cloud will also develop a new, comprehensive analytics solution to help CSPs leverage data to improve the reliability of their services and customer experiences.
  
• Partner on Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) services: The companies will share tools, frameworks, and best practices for SRE and DevOps. With key Amdocs products running on Anthos, CSPs will rely on more cost-effective platforms.

“We’re delighted to partner with Amdocs to help communications providers transform their businesses with the cloud,” said Kevin Ichhpurani, Corporate Vice President, Global Ecosystem at Google Cloud. “Through our partnership with Amdocs, we’re able to empower communications providers in monetizing 5G/edge as a business services platform, better leverage data and AI, and improve operational efficiency and the experience for their end-users.”
