In addition, distributed edge architectures significantly reduce service latency and data backhaul by placing service functions and applications closer to the consumer and servicing data at the edge rather than backhauling it to core data centers for processing. Because cloud- native platforms are designed and built on a foundation of automation capabilities
and tooling, administrators can expect to achieve greater efficiency when performing infrastructure, service
and application life cycle management functions.
5G architectures and technologies are empowering a new world
of innovative, real-time remote operations and control services. In addition, the ability to dynamically share spectrum in the Citizens Broadband Radio Service, which
has been set aside for public wireless access, makes it possible for agencies to rapidly deploy private 5G networks in situations where flexibility and control are essential.
Maximizing the possibilities for innovation
Agencies need to generate, analyze and manage massive amounts of data to achieve success on a diverse set of mission goals. The increase in bandwidth that comes with 5G
revolution
A 5G-enabled platform allows agencies to adopt new services and applications now and in the future
5G ARCHITECTURES AND TECHNOLOGIES can give agencies the capability to connect
billions of devices and significantly speed the transfer of data at a time when rapid, secure access to data has become critical to mission success. From software-defined data centers through clouds and out to the network edge, 5G is enabling innovation at
an unprecedented pace.
Evolution to 5G brings new cloud-
native, distributed edge architectures
and delivery platforms for edge services. These new architectures and platforms have the potential to significantly improve service agility and time-to-market delivery, allowing agencies to create new services faster in response to customer needs.
