The pivotal role of data centers in supporting widespread adoption

5G unlocks a more connected, digital, and automated world

As telco providers make strategic and structural innovations to improve the scalability, speed and performance of their network services, many are at a crossroads

The telecom industry is holding up the world amid Covid-19

FlexE was born in the data center. Now it is moving to the Edge, to support 5G

The global footprint is 50GW at peak power!

Planning for flexibility, density and acceleration are key considerations for network operators hoping to keep up

Tradition in transition: the flood of content is driving a big change in subsea cables

With accelerating demand for instantaneous access to data anytime and anywhere, Edge computing and micro data centers are becoming more abundant and increasingly valuable

The emergence of virtual radio access network (vRAN) technology represents the next stage of network virtualization.

5G is supposed to be a key part of delivering Edge applications. But the biggest Edge application could be the 5G network itself

Before you light up a new fiber path, make sure it is up to the job

Telecoms providers tell us that 5G is well on the way - but it will make heavy infrastructure demands

Edge isn’t going to kill the data center per se, but customers are going to run hybrid solutions combining traditional data center and applying Edge for performance-based needs

Companies need to go beyond marketing statement and into demonstrating services in order to gain traction in the marketplace

A number of countries are attempting, or have successfully created, restriction of their Internet

With 5G on the horizon, we must look for ways to support the growth and maintain the increasingly critical edge by creating a collaborative ecosystem that builds resiliency

When 4G arrived it was billed as a great consumer technology, whereas the benefits of 5G will be felt by businesses

Five lessons from Foxborough

Infrastructure has never been more critical

To understand where the 5G opportunities reside, we first need to understand the complex set of challenges faced by telcos

It will continue to be a challenge in the industry to develop products that can scale effectively to reach the required fiber counts while not overwhelming existing duct and inside plant environments

Next year will be all about edge computing, hyperscalers, 5G and the re-emergence of liquid cooling

Whether we see 5G in 2019 or 2020, in my view for 5G to thrive it is important for the MNOs to roll out the service in a profitable way
