Vonage Joins Forces with SAP to Accelerate Digital Transformation with Communications and Network APIs

Vonage

Vonage, a global leader in cloud communications helping businesses accelerate their digital transformation and a part of Ericsson, announced a new collaboration with SAP SE focused on exploring generative AI and NextGen use cases using Vonage’s Application Programming Interface (API) platform and SAP Business AI.

As part of the collaboration, Vonage will provide SAP with access to Vonage network APIs from Vonage’s Communications Platform as a Service (CPaaS), including Quality-on-Demand (QoD), Device Location and Number Verification. The QoD API enables businesses to deliver exceptional real-time experiences, from extended reality to autonomous vehicle support and enhanced broadcast experiences, serving as a cornerstone for elevated user satisfaction. Through the use of Vonage APIs, SAP can use Device Location together with Number Verification APIs to provide an authentication experience for its customers to help mitigate the risk of fraud, while Device Location APIs, together with IoT, can help to enhance asset tracking, track and trace, and fleet management by using network-based location data.

Vonage plans to work with SAP on cutting-edge innovation that combines generative AI and immersive services on SAP Business Technology Platform (SAP BTP) with Vonage’s network APIs, which can help improve experiences with QoD to support sustainability through advanced technologies, enhanced data visualization and augmented reality training. Immersive analytics can be used to leverage data from the network to provide deeper insights, understanding and strengthen data-driven decision-making.

Vonage’s Communications Platform as a Service (CPaaS) is a mature platform that makes it easy for a community of more than 1.6 million developers to embed communications capabilities into applications, systems and workflows through Communications APIs. Vonage offers a comprehensive suite of communications APIs including voice, video, messaging, and verification, as well as a portfolio of AI-capable, low-code/no-code programmable components that speed and simplify the development of applications.

With Ericsson’s mobile network leadership, this platform can be extended to enable developers to build advanced secure, reliable and innovative applications by exposing 5G capabilities as network APIs, including SIM Swap, Device Status and Number Verification to tackle fraud, as well as Device Location Verification, and Quality on Demand, along with additional network capabilities to address improved connectivity and enhanced engagement to meet the needs of enterprise customers.
