Analysis: How are Faster Networks Advancing the New-Age Datacenters

Providing lower latency up to 10 microseconds is a new challenge for operators to enable new technologies in the market. For this to happen, data center need to complement the higher broadband network. It forms the base digital innovation to happen in future.

OpenStack and Ceph for Distributed Hyperconverged Edge Deployments

Red Hat team came with an innovative hyperconvergence of OpenStack projects along with Ceph software-defined storage. A solution shows, it is possible to gain better control all edge nodes by reducing control planes and maintain the continuity and sustainability of 5G network along with the performance required by new age applications.

Tungsten Fabric as SDN for Akraino Based Network Edges

Integration of TF with Akraino edge stack enable enhanced features and utilizes remote compute architecture of TF. A solution can orchestrate all types of workloads like PNFs, VNFs and CNF, implement service chaining at edge sites, workload and data transfer security, automating deployment of control functions and workloads, and more.

Architecting Edge for Self-driving Cars with OpenStack and ETSI Open Source MANO

Involvement of leading open infrastructure projects such as OpenStack and OSM as MANO suggest that such solutions are possible using open-source projects with the added benefit of controlling developing infrastructure costs.

Serverless at the Edge: Resolving Resource Utilization Concerns

Edge computing is the critical architecture for enabling most 5G use cases. However, requirements and expectations from edge node in terms of computing resources is in question, and with the growing number of devices and data it could become cumbersome.
