Digital Transformation at the Edge enabled by standardization - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

As 5G roll-outs take off, enabling a variety of new applications and services running at the network Edge plays an essential role in establishing new business models and revenue streams. Digital transformation becomes a pre-requisite for the 5G networks offering automation, zero-touch management and orchestration of not only the necessary resources and connectivity needed for edge computing and of the edge computing platforms offered, but also the applications running at the edge. Multi-vendor deployments require interoperability, enabled by the current standardization work support as well as its further evolution in support of emerging business models and their required deployment models. Standards Developing Organizations such as ETSI NFV, ETSI ZSM as well as 3GPP and open source initiatives are building blocks for multi-vendor deployments and for rapidly adding new edge applications and services.
