6 Emerging Multi-Tier Cloud with New Edge
Edge Cloud Telco Cloud Public Clouds E Edge Processing is Vital E • Subscriber experience dictated from here
• Human Reaction time: 210ms Users • Machine to machine interactions < 100ms & E • Latency to Centralized Cloud: 100 – 400ms Devices • Emerging Applications Require Edge Processing • AR visual overlays • Autonomous Vehicle Coordination E • IoT Battery Life (50-75% improvement with edge processing)
E What would an Edge platform need?
Functionality Approach • A service delivery platform • Built with • For known & yet unknown services • Merchant silicon • Many different configurations • White boxes • Small to large • Open source • Ability to plug-in different access devices/technologies • Committed community • Programmable control & monitoring E Platform? • Future proof • Millisecond control loops • Hard to predict services & • Economics of a datacenter access technologies • Space and power efficient • Proprietary components as • Zero-touch/automated provisioning, config, & operation special components (“tabasco
