Deutsche Telekom has entered an agreement with Google Cloud, extending until 2030, to enhance cloud and AI integration across its IT, networks, and business applications. A component of this partnership includes migrating Deutsche Telekom’s SAP deployment, driving operational efficiencies, and delivering next-generation customer experiences.
Cloudification and AI-First Strategy
As part of its digital transformation strategy, Deutsche Telekom has chosen Google Cloud as its partner to modernize data and AI applications. This partnership aims to accelerate the company’s transition to an AI-first approach, optimizing digital solutions across all business units, software engineering processes, and customer interfaces.
A prime example of this collaboration is the One Data Ecosystem (ODE) — an AI-integrated platform designed to consolidate Deutsche Telekom’s on-premises data systems. By leveraging Google Cloud’s capabilities, the ODE enhances data processing speed while ensuring compliance with regulatory standards, supporting the company’s goal of an agile and intelligent enterprise.
SAP2SKY: Modernizing Deutsche Telekom’s Core Systems
A significant milestone in Deutsche Telekom’s cloud journey is SAP2SKY, the migration of its SAP estate to Google Cloud. With Google Cloud’s scalable infrastructure and SAP expertise, this initiative centralizes and modernizes Deutsche Telekom’s core systems. The transition will improve scalability, operational flexibility, efficiency, and compliance, reinforcing the company’s vision of a future-ready IT infrastructure that adapts to evolving business needs.
Leveraging Google Cloud Vertex AI for Innovation
With an increased focus on AI-driven innovation, Deutsche Telekom will adopt Google Cloud Vertex AI — a unified developer platform — to develop, deploy, and scale AI-powered applications. The integration of Google’s latest Gemini models will provide Deutsche Telekom with advanced computational power, enabling faster product development and hyper-personalized customer experiences.
AI for Autonomous Networks
At Mobile World Congress 2025, Deutsche Telekom and Google Cloud unveiled an AI-driven network AI agent built with Gemini Vertex AI. This solution enhances autonomous network operations by analyzing network behavior, detecting performance issues, and implementing corrective actions in real time. This agentic AI approach moves beyond rule-based automation, using large language models (LLMs) and advanced reasoning to deliver self-healing networks that optimize performance and customer satisfaction.
Enhancing User Experience with Magenta AI
Another innovation showcased at Mobile World Congress was Magenta AI, integrated within Deutsche Telekom’s MyMagenta app. Powered by Google’s Gemini Multimodal Live API, this AI solution enhances the way users interact with their devices. Customers can translate conversations in real time, recognize and interpret text from signs and menus through their camera, and engage in natural voice interactions with AI that can process video inputs and screencasts.
