Ranny Haiby, CTO of Networking, Edge/IoT, Access at Linux Foundation, outlines three major networking trends for 2024 including cloud-native adoption maturity, Open RAN acceleration, and non-terrestrial networks. These trends reflect the industry's focus on expanding connectivity options and improving network architectures through initiatives like the Cloud Native Telco project and satellite network integration.

Arpit Joshipura, GM Networking + Edge IOT at Linux Foundation, outlines three significant predictions for 2025 spanning domain-specific AI, network API monetization, and Edge compute adoption. His analysis shows how specialized AI models, profitable network APIs, and Edge computing are reshaping telecommunications and industrial sectors through projects like Po and Kamara.

Arpit Joshipura, GM Networking + Edge IOT at the Linux Foundation, discusses the emergence of domain-specific AI as the next major development in enterprise verticals like telecommunications and energy. He highlights the Linux Foundation Networking's collaboration with projects to anonymize data for model training.

Arpit Joshipura, GM Networking + Edge IOT at Linux Foundation, discusses the evolution of NaaS and its transformative impact on enterprise and service provider networking. Joshipura points to the dependence of NaaS on many key capabilities like automation, and AI management. He also discusses key benefits for businesses adopting NaaS across productivity, cost, and security.

Arpit Joshipura and Ranny Haiby from Linux Foundation predict AI will become a horizontal framework in networking. They also anticipate a rise in neutral governance for key software projects due to concerns around single company control and geopolitics. They also anticipate the continuation of Open RAN's journey towards full open source.

How will open networking projects fare in 2023 and what big trends are shaping these efforts? Linux Foundation's Arpit Joshipura makes his predictions for what's next on open networking in 2023.
