The ETSI OpenSlice 2025Q4 release introduces the OpenSlice MCP Backend, enabling local LLM deployments with full data sovereignty and private model fine-tuning to power the new AI Assistant. Agentic Orchestration capabilities have been added to coordinate internal and external agents throughout the service lifecycle for more autonomous network behavior. The Telco Cloud layer is strengthened by GITER, a lightweight Git-based controller for distributed environments, alongside a new native controller for Nokia’s Network-as-Code platform. Finally, a prototype TMF Product UI and a repository of ready-to-deploy blueprints, including a full 5G Core, simplify product modeling and user onboarding.
