QCT Open Architecture for MEC

Open Architecture from Cloud to Edge for MEC

Mobile Edge computing or Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) creates a new ecosystem of enterprises and operators, who can work together to oﬀer more use cases to users over networks. The MEC environment at edge sites is characterized by ultra-low latency and high bandwidth to enable real-time access. Data are often processed locally and transmitted via the radio network networks to be accessed and leveraged by authorized applications.

Telecom operators or enterprises can build MEC architectures at edge sites which oﬀer more ﬂexible and innovative applications, delivering better user experiences to their service subscribers and employees in the 5G world.

Why is Edge Computing Important?

By the year 2025, more than 75% of enterprise-generated data will be created and processed outside the traditional data center or cloud.

– Gartner

The global datasphere will grow from 45 zettabytes in 2019 to 175 by 2025. Nearly 30% of the world’s data will need real-time processing.

Business Transformation

MEC creates opportunities for telecom operators, content providers, and industry verticals to play a signiﬁcant role as they build up new ecosystems and value chains to better monetize the mobile network experience.

Technology Enablement

The foundation of MEC is virtualized platforms. While NFV focuses on transforming network infrastructures, MEC enables not only network infrastructures but also diﬀerent use cases through applications running at the edge.

Use Cases

As 5G networks and IoT devices are becoming prevalent, more and more commercially innovative use cases emerge, which require data to be processed at the edge to deliver better user experiences with ultra-low latency.
