Abstract: In this paper, a vision for beyond-5G systems is proposed where automation, intelligence and data privacy in cloudnative infrastructures are in focus. Exploiting the convergence of cloud technologies at the edge and mobile communication networks, a set of architectural and technological solutions is discussed that will play a fundamental role on the path from 5G towards future sixth-generation systems. Currently, a strong need is felt in the telecommunication world for greater automation to meet the extreme requirements expected for future 6G applications. In this regard, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is gaining high momentum as one of the central enabling technologies for beyond-5G networks. Reinforcement Learning (RL) and Federated Learning (FL) are here proposed as technologies to enhance network automation and enable privacy-aware applications. Blockchain is proposed as a solution for non-repudiation and trustworthiness in the AI pipelines. These technologies are brought together in a comprehensive cloud-native architectural vision to fill the gap between current 5G systems and AI-powered secure systems of the future.
