Network APIs Training Courses

School of ICT Technology: Network APIs

Why are Network APIs important?

Network APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) in mobile networks are interfaces that allow external applications and services to interact with the core functionalities of mobile networks. They enable developers and third-party services to tap into the underlying network infrastructure, access network resources, and offer enhanced services to end-users. 

Network APIs offer a new avenue for revenue generation by enabling them to monetise the network and open it up to developers to create new innovative services whilst enhancing the customer experience by offering personalised services like location-based features, IoT integration, and advanced communication options. In addition, APIs can be utilised to streamline operations and reduce costs by automating processes such as network management, customer support, and billing can lead to increased efficiency.

Network APIs are built on several key technologies and frameworks including; 5G and Network Slicing, Service-Based Architecture (SBA), Network Exposure Function (NEF) and Edge Computing and APIs.

Types of Network APIs

  • Core Network APIs: These APIs expose core network functionalities such as call control, SMS, and data services.
  • Radio Access Network (RAN) APIs: RAN APIs provide access to radio resources and enable applications to interact with the physical network infrastructure.
  • IoT APIs: IoT APIs facilitate the connection and management of IoT devices, enabling the collection and analysis of data.
  • Enterprise APIs: Enterprise APIs cater to the specific needs of businesses, providing access to network services for enterprise applications.
