MEC is delivering low-latency, real-time enterprise applications
As has been pointed out by operators on recent earnings calls, the market for advanced 5G-enabled services—things like mobile edge computing (MEC) combined with public and private 5G, and private 5G itself—has been slower to create revenues than...
This report, a companion to the 5G Monetization Forum, aggregates, analyzes and contextualizes the wide-ranging discussions from expert speakers, including technology buyers, sellers, policy makers and innovators developing the solutions that will deliver meaningful change for enterprises and, in turn, create new revenue opportunities...
Editor’s note: Check out the first part of this story, “How can operators monetize MEC?—‘Selling shovels instead of digging for gold’”
If you take a high-level look at how mobile edge computing (MEC) is shaping up in the market, and listen to industry voices like...
One promise of 5G is unlocking latency-sensitive use cases, things ranging form immersive gaming experiences without jitter that takes a player out of the moment to computer vision systems deployed for access control, quality assurance, and other applications relevant to numerous verticals industries. But...
Beyond consumer-facing 5G services like fixed wireless access and step-changes in subscription plans—which are certainly making operators new service revenue—so far 5G monetization has fallen a bit short of the world-changing, trillion(s)-dollar hype around the sweeping digital transformation of industries.
Based on a panel...
