TheCUBE, SiliconANGLE Media’s livestreaming studio, will be on the ground in Barcelona for coverage of this year’s MWC, Feb. 27 through Mar. 2. Viewers will hear firsthand from analysts, practitioners and cloud luminaries on emerging models that are taking shape as telcos seek more programmable architectures in today’s growing cloud ecosystem.

The telecommunications sector has entered a period of dramatic change, one in which the underlying infrastructure powering the world’s largest telco networks is going through a new phase of modernization. Telcos are opening up and becoming more cloudlike through adoption of software-defined tools and cloud-native microservices for developers.

If this scenario sounds familiar, it’s because it resembles the same transformation that has engulfed the IT world over the past decade.

“We’ve seen this movie before; this has happened in the IT data center,” said Dennis Hoffman, senior vice president and general manager of the telecom business for Dell Technologies Inc. “We went from proprietary vertical solutions to horizontal open systems. We went from client server to software-defined, open hardware and cloud-native. The trend is likely to be exactly that in the telecom industry because that’s what the operators want.”

Hoffman spoke with Vellante in advance of Mobile World Congress, during an exclusive broadcast on theCUBE. He was joined by Aaron Chaisson, vice president of telecom and edge solutions marketing at Dell, and they discussed the latest trends in the telecommunications field and what to expect during theCUBE's extensive coverage of MWC in Barcelona.
