The edge has become the playground for some of the most innovative technology companies launching specialized private 5G applications. Advancements like Open RAN, programmable networks, intent-based network slicing, and AI-driven automation are promising new level of efficiencies in processing humongous data volumes with ultra-low latencies at the distributed network edge. However, the industry continues to struggle on a common understanding of the necessary steps required to make multi-access edge a reality for enterprise applications. So, what are the gaps and challenges and what do we need to do about it? Let’s find out!Our guest for the podcast is Michael Recchia, Global Telco Solutions Architect at Red Hat. With decades of experience working at AT&T and Verizon, he is an expert with hands-on experience in strategy, architecture, design, and testing of programmable network deployment with cloud-native edge solutions in the Open RAN environment.
In our discussion today, we will uncover a few things:
- The challenges in materializing the vision of distributed intelligent edge.- Different flavors of edge-cloud and which one should enterprises care about the most?- What’s the relationship and dependencies between edge-cloud and private 5G?- And most importantly, the steps enterprises, operators, and vendors need to take to make the distributed edge a reality
So, without further ado, let us welcome Michael Recchia.
