SoftBank's AI-Driven Routing Just Proved Intent-Based Networking Works — Here's What It Means for CCIE SP Engineers
SoftBank just deployed AI-driven autonomous routing on its commercial mobile network — and the results prove that intent-based networking isn’t just a blueprint concept anymore. Their “Autonomous Thinking Distributed Core Routing” technology, announced at MWC Barcelona 2026 on March 11, uses AI agents paired with the CAMARA Quality on Demand (QoD) API to dynamically select optimal network paths based on real-time traffic analysis. In field trials, it cut average latency from 41.9ms to 27.4ms with 99.7% traffic control accuracy. ...
