The Red Hat Shares newsletter helps IT leaders navigate the complicated world of IT―the open source way.


FROM THE EDITOR

Why telcos are prioritizing edge computing

A recent Research and Markets report by Grand View Research states, “the telecom edge is estimated to grow exponentially” by 2030. Many telecommunications service providers are making edge computingmoving workloads and services from the core toward the edge of the network, where data is used―a priority as they modernize existing infrastructure and seek new revenue streams.

Moving workloads to the edge greatly reduces latency―the amount of time between sending and receiving a signal. This enables new applications and services that can exploit reduced latency and improve the customer experience of existing applications, especially following advancements in 5G. With the addition of 5G to the high-bandwidth connectivity of edge computing, companies are better positioned to meet demands in areas like healthcare delivery, emergency response, manufacturing efficiency, traffic congestion and industrial safety. 

Red Hat's approach to edge computing focuses on three categories: 

  • Enterprise edge, which lets you extend application services to remote locations
  • Operations edge, which is about analyzing inputs in real time
  • Provider edge, which manages a network for others, as in the case of telcos

Where the edge of your network is depends on your organization, architecture and use case. It's important that your edge infrastructure is built on platforms that support your workloads, wherever you need them (like Red Hat Edge does). That’s why we recommend an open source approach that gives you the freedom to mix and match components from third parties and build a more customized solution.

In this issue of Red Hat Shares, learn about multi-access edge computing, what’s prompting 5G edge deployments, how video analytics can initiate the edge opportunity for telcos and how Samsung is responding to 5G and edge connectivity.

First, read more about edge computing for telecommunications:
