The next wave of telecommunication and service provider transformations will be very different; we call it extreme transformation. Communication service providers (CSPs) have to become digital service providers (DSPs) to stay relevant. In the DSP world, customers are not just “human beings”, but also billions of sensors and IoT devices that will be revolutionizing digital lifestyle with relevant content enabled by data mining, leading to decision making and entertainment. For CSPs to stay relevant, they must not only compete with differentiation in network reliability for quad-play connectivity services but must also move up the value chain and transform into customer-centric DSPs for digital services. The extreme transformation from CSP to DSP status is what is covered in this book. Kaveh Hushyar: Former Chief Engineering Officer at AT&T. Cross-industry leader in Transformation.
