These AI tools predict upcoming problems, detect and auto-correct issues.”

She also added Airtel has launched the tier four NXtra data center which is scheduled to commence operations by 2027.

On his part, Harmanpreet Singh Dhillon, the chief technical officer, highlighted the commitment of Airtel to improving its network technology and how the telco remains in the vanguard of satellite internet.

“Airtel believes in the adoption of the latest technologies that align with sustainability standards, and going by this, we have adopted a hybrid solution that combines solar and lithium-ion batteries. All you need is a satellite at a site, and you can connect to the rest of the world. We are unique in this aspect as we work with two links, where one serves as a backup to promote reliability and stability.”

The event concluded with an interactive question-and-answer session in which journalists engaged with the four directors on various topics, ranging from customer data experiences and digital transformation.
