Report by Omdia and Canonical finds network cloudification a key priority, shows CSPs embracing open source technologies
London, UK. 12 September 2024. Today, Omdia and Canonical, the publisher of Ubuntu, released a new research report which indicates that communications service providers (CSPs) in the US, UK and Germany increasingly view networked edge computing not just as a long-term priority, but as an opportunity that will generate returns in the near future. The report, entitled “Cloud-native network transformation and the 5G edge”, finds that realising the full potential of 5G networks is a priority that CSPs are tackling with increased optimism.
After a slow start, CSPs see potential in 5G networked edge computing
Until a few years ago, concerns about the absence of a “killer app” to drive the growth of 5G networked edge computing fueled uncertainty among CSPs about use cases and demand. The research report shows, however, that this situation has changed…
