It can be used as an upgrade path for service providers using Amdocs network solutions, or as a new solution.

Amdocs continues to expand its global client base by signing long-term contracts and collaborating with major companies across the world. The company ended the second quarter of fiscal 2023 with a 12-month backlog of $4.11 billion, up $20 million sequentially and $220 million year over year.

Currently, DOX's growth momentum is anticipated to continue and courtesy of its initiatives aimed at aiding digital, media and network and cloud transformations of its clients. In May, the company developed new use cases in collaboration with Microsoft (MSFT - Free Report) in its Americas 5G Experience Lab in Dallas, TX.

Currently available in Microsoft’s Azure Marketplace, the Amdocs solutions are built on Azure Private Multi-access Edge Compute and Azure Private 5G Core platforms. The use cases intend to provide a view on how combining private networks, edge computing solutions, the Internet of Things and more together can lead to an advanced digital society. The DOX offering will give real-time environmental and movement data to ensure that cities add intelligent, efficient lighting services, public or private internet access and other city management capabilities.

In March, Colt Technology Services selected Amdocs for the strategic transformation of its core IT systems. Per the contract, DOX delivers an inventory platform that digitalizes and automates Colt's global product and service inventory. In the same month, the company completed a proof of concept with Philippines-based PLDT's wireless subsidiary Smart Communications, Inc. and DOX partner vHive.
