Composable network intelligence platform powering AI-driven performance management, customer experience and autonomous network operations on Red Hat OpenShift.
NIx Platform is the composable foundation for all Future Connections network intelligence solutions, running on Red Hat OpenShift and powered by Red Hat AI. Its modular architecture integrates five core components — NIx Ingestor, NIx Analyser, NIx ML Inferer, NIx ML Store and NIx Insights — enabling end-to-end data flow from multi-vendor collection through Kafka streaming, advanced KPI processing, ML-based anomaly detection and forecasting, to real-time actionable dashboards. With petabyte-scale storage, sub-second query response and 99.99% availability, the platform handles millions of records daily across RAN, core, transmission and virtualised workloads. It powers NIx PM, NIx CEM, NIx RAN and NIx Agents — accelerating the journey to autonomous network operations.
NIx Platform's modular design enables rapid deployment of specialised network intelligence use cases while maintaining enterprise-grade scalability, security and performance. Built on Red Hat OpenShift, each component — NIx Ingestor, NIx Analyser, NIx ML Inferer, NIx ML Store and NIx Insights — can be deployed independently or as a unified stack.
NIx Ingestor handles multi-vendor, multi-technology data collection across RAN, core, transmission and virtualised workloads with 99% data accuracy, processing millions of records daily. Real-time Kafka streaming, automated error handling and multi-vendor compatibility ensure no data is lost or delayed.
NIx ML Inferer powered by Red Hat AI applies trained models in real time for anomaly detection, forecasting, behavioural profiling and root cause analysis. Auto-ML capabilities, GPU acceleration and scalable compute enable continuous improvement of predictive accuracy across all network domains.
NIx ML Store delivers petabyte-scale storage with sub-second query response and 99.99% availability, backed by Elasticsearch-PostgreSQL integration. NIx Analyser provides real-time KPI processing, cross-domain correlation and custom aggregation — handling the full complexity of modern multi-vendor telecom networks.
Red Hat certified products are tested to meet Red Hat’s criteria and supported as defined in the Red Hat Collaborative Support Process.
Partner validated products are tested by Red Hat Partners and supported as defined in the Red Hat Third Party Component Policy.
NIx Platform runs on Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform (version 4.10 or later) and uses Red Hat AI for ML inference, anomaly detection and predictive analytics. OpenShift provides the containerised runtime, orchestration and scaling layer for all five platform components. Red Hat OpenShift AI is recommended for teams wanting to manage model lifecycle, retraining pipelines and GPU workloads directly. No other Red Hat products are strictly required, though OpenShift Data Foundation can optionally be used for persistent storage.
NIx Platform's composable architecture is designed for incremental deployment. You can start with NIx Ingestor and NIx ML Store to establish the data foundation, then add NIx Analyser for KPI processing, NIx ML Inferer for AI capabilities and NIx Insights for dashboards as your requirements evolve. Application modules — NIx PM, NIx CEM, NIx RAN and NIx Agents — can also be added independently on top of the core platform. Future Connections sizes and sequences deployments based on your priority use cases.
NIx Platform supports all major telecom vendors out of the box including Ericsson, Nokia, Huawei, ZTE, Cisco and Samsung across RAN, voice core, data core (EPC/4G and 5G core), transmission and virtualised workloads. NIx Ingestor processes millions of records daily with 99% data accuracy, and NIx ML Store scales to petabyte-level storage with sub-second query response and 99.99% availability. New vendor integrations can be added through NIx Ingestor's extensible connector framework.
NIx Platform leverages Red Hat OpenShift's native security capabilities including role-based access control (RBAC), network policies and encryption at rest and in transit. Multi-tenancy is configurable across all platform components, enabling different access levels for engineering, operations, support and management personas. Data retention policies are configurable per data type to meet regional regulatory and privacy requirements. Future Connections provides security architecture guidance as part of the deployment engagement.
