Proactive impact analysis in a 5G Telco network

A non-transitory, computer-readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by a processor, perform stages for impact assessment in a Telco network, the stages comprising:

• receiving, at an impact assessment engine, a scenario that specifies a symptom for a network resource, wherein the symptom describes a state of the network resource;
• constructing failure signatures in a codebook matrix, wherein the codebook matrix correlates problems at impacted network resources to symptoms at other network resources;
• generating synthetic failure signatures by identifying problems in the codebook matrix that include the symptom and network resource of the scenario;
• isolating a subset of the synthetic failure signatures that meet a ranking threshold, wherein the failure signatures are ranked based on at least problem occurrence frequency;
• and
• identifying, on a graphical user interface (“GUI”), potentially impacted tenants and services for the scenario, wherein the tenants and services correspond to the impacted network resources of the subset of synthetic failure signatures.
