Dhiraagu, the Maldives' leading telecommunications provider, has partnered with Infovista to implement comprehensive AI-powered optimisation across its generational networks from 2G to 5G.
Through the collaboration, Dhiraagu aims to hasten the pace of ROI from its network investments while providing optimal subscriber experiences across the Maldivian archipelago's unique geographical challenges.
The Maldives is seeing a surge in demand for connectivity amidst a burgeoning tourism sector and an increasing number of digital transformation initiatives. Dhiraagu’s deployment seeks to address this, and the operator has implemented Infovista's integrated Planet, TEMS, and Ativa solutions to create a unified approach to network planning, testing, and assurance.
Dhiraagu's implementation spans three critical operational areas:
Smart network planning: Infovista’s Planet solution with AI-driven machine learning propagation models delivers highly accurate coverage predictions across the Maldives' complex maritime environment, enabling seamless integration of 5G New Radio while optimising site placement and technology rollout strategies.
Advanced performance validation: The TEMS solution provides continuous QoS and QoE monitoring across VoLTE, mobile data, and OTT applications, utilising machine learning algorithms to ensure optimal service quality during the critical 5G deployment phase.
Proactive service assurance: The Ativa solution delivers real-time network visibility with unified service and network KPIs, enabling proactive issue detection and resolution while providing geolocated RAN analytics for continuous monitoring across all technologies and subscriber segments.
The companies claim that their partnership will deliver accelerated ROI via intelligent network planning and capacity optimisation, as well as reduced time-to-resolution for network issues through proactive assurance. Automated diagnostics and streamlined workflows are expected to reduce operational costs, with new revenue opportunities projected through data-driven network optimisation and customer intelligence.
David Tulis, Chief Revenue Officer at Infovista, said: "Infovista’s AI-powered solutions will enable Dhiraagu to excel in performance and reliability while future-proofing their infrastructure for 5G evolution and beyond."
"Infovista's integrated approach gives us unprecedented visibility and control across our entire network ecosystem," said Mohamed Musad, Chief Technology & Information Officer at Dhiraagu. "This partnership ensures we maintain our position as Maldives' fastest, most reliable network while delivering the intelligent operations needed for sustainable growth in the 5G era."
