In the last decade, we have seen a massive shift towards digitalisation with businesses, governments, and individuals relying tremendously on digital services and connectivity. The world is rapidly moving towards a more connected and data-driven future, with more devices than ever before. From smartphones and tablets to smart homes and autonomous vehicles, everything is becoming connected to the internet, and this is driving the need for scalable, secure, and flexible cloud technology.
To meet these needs, the cloud revolution is being fuelled by three key technological advancements: 5G, Edge Computing, and Network Cloudification.
UNDERSTANDING THE KEY DRIVERS
The deployment of 5G networks has enabled faster and more reliable connectivity, opening new possibilities for mobile services. For example, cloud gaming, virtual and augmented reality, and high-definition video streaming are now possible on mobile devices. For applications that require real-time responsiveness, such as autonomous vehicles and industrial automation, 5G promises to transfer more data at faster speeds.
Edge computing, on the other hand, is all about bringing computing power closer to where it is needed. By moving computing power closer to the source of data, edge computing reduces the time it takes to process and analyse data, allowing faster and more efficient decision-making. This is particularly important for applications that require real-time analysis, such as video streaming and smart homes.
