Industry Context

With 5G technology promising better data speed, availability, scalability, and connectivity, the telecommunication industry is experiencing a profound shift.

Increasingly, there is a demand for advanced edge computing platforms to process data closer to the source and facilitate real-time applications. For telecommunication companies operating in the US and EU, modernizing the edge computing infrastructure is essential to harness the full potential of 5G.

Client Challenge

The client, a global software provider excels in delivering cutting-edge software solutions empowering intelligent systems with unmatched security, safety, and reliability. They needed to quickly modernize their edge computing platform to support 5G better.

However, migrating from VM-based to container-based network functions was challenging. There were skill and capacity gaps to develop a comprehensive solution on the client's end. The client was thus seeking a technology partner to create a carrier-grade solution with high availability, scalability, monitoring, and alarms.
