Shabodi Partner Program

Shabodi is partnering with organizations worldwide to accelerate customer investment in private advanced network deployments by exposing the 5G Core (5GC) programmability to application developers via APIs.

Successful advanced network deployments need a new ecosystem mindset.

Partner with Shabodi to make it happen

Enterprises typically choose different consumption models when deploying their Private LTE/5G solution, including:

Managed services from

  • Network Equipment Providers (NEPs)
  • Mobile Network Operators (MNOs)
  • Private Wireless Providers (PWPs)
  • Systems Integrators (SIs)

Some enterprises choose to deploy a full do-it-yourself (DIY) private wireless network. However, it is usually not the case because of the cost and complexity of managing the entire private wireless network lifecycle.

Market data and public announcements reveal that most enterprises choose external partners and service providers over managing the deployment single-handedly.

By exposing the network functions as defined in the 3GPP specifications through simple RESTful APIs, Shabodi offers a unique value proposition to the various players of the Advanced Network ecosystem, including Application Vendors. Read on to know more.

Bridging The Application Development Skill Gap

Network Equipment Providers (NEP) like Nokia, Ericsson, Mavenir, and others provide the Radio Access Network (RAN), 5G Core, and Edge elements and offer professional and managed services.  

Instead of directly exposing APIs from elements of 5G Core to MNOs and Enterprises, NEPs can bundle Shabodi’s Application Enablement Platform (AEP). It allows them to expose simple APIs to third-party developers to create new and diverse use cases. 

Using Shabodi APIs, developers no longer need to have an extensive knowledge of Network Functions (NFs) and Mandatory, Optional, and Proprietary (MOP) parameters.

Why NEPs should partner with Shabodi: The key benefits

Differentiate your offerings with developer-friendly APIs that enable new and diverse use cases

Enable rapid deployment of mission-critical use cases that require end-to-end QoS, latency, security, etc.

Build a robust application ecosystem and achieve faster adoption by third-party developers with Shabodi’s simple APIs

Creating Advanced Service Offerings and Revenue Models for the
Advanced Network World

5G is a significant paradigm shift compared to the previous generations. 5G’s core capabilities, like network exposure, programmability, and network slicing, open up new opportunities for Mobile Network Operators (MNOs).

It allows MNOs to create new revenue streams by offering the capability to run network-aware applications. A network-aware application dynamically requests resources from the network during run-time.

Why MNOs should partner with Shabodi: The key benefits

Create unique offerings for every industry vertical based on service type (bandwidth, security, latency, mission-critical, etc.)

Leverage Shabodi’s simple API framework to onboard third-party developers quickly

Expose a wide variety of APIs to enterprises to drive increased automation use cases

Offering New Services And Solutions At Scale And Pace

Private Wireless Providers (PWP) and Systems Integrators (SIs) have expertise in multi-vendor systems. It allows them to offer customized solutions to address their customers’ unique business problems and requirements.

A typical PWP/SI service portfolio includes 5G-as-a-Service, Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT), and 5G security, among others. By partnering with Shabodi, PWPs/SIs can request application vendors (e.g., autonomous mobile robots, augmented reality, video surveillance, etc.) to build network-aware applications and thoroughly test these applications to optimize the use of advanced network resources.

Why PWP and SI should partner with Shabodi: The key benefits

Efficient and optimized network resources with application visibility and advanced network insights

Create new consumption models

Building 5G and Advanced Network-Ready Applications at Speed and Scale

Shabodi has built a solution development partnership program for Application Providers who build applications for Private Wireless Networks.

By incorporating Shabodi APIs within these applications, service providers and application developers for Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR), Forklifts, video and image- based quality control, and other mission-critical use cases can make their applications run more efficiently and precisely. With Shabodi, these applications can call for simple API and request specific bandwidth, latency, and security settings during their operation.

Why application developers should partner with Shabodi: The key benefits

Enable customers to quickly build, deploy, and manage applications on heterogeneous advanced network infrastructure

Bring differentiated products faster to the market to solve real-world business problems

Improve application development lifecycle and developer productivity: No learning curve for developers on NEP vendor-specific APIs
