Introduction
5G is predicted to have a significant impact on how cloud computing operates in the future. It will undoubtedly revolutionize the communication and networking industry. In addition, it will have a significant impact on all other industries. Transmission speeds will be 10 times faster in 5G than in 4G.
Apart from networking and communication industries, it will also revolutionize other healthcare, automotive, and many more. Commercial 5G smartphones are already in the market. A study report by Ericsson Mobility predicts that there will be one billion 5G subscriptions by 2023. It will account for about 20% of the mobile data traffic.
5G, with its features such as low latency performance and high speed, has all the capabilities of developing cloud computing and take to the next level. As a result, there will be an unpredictable positive impact of 5G on cloud computing, especially in the industries and sectors that use the latest technologies such as the Internet of Things, machine learning, and AI.
It has already started redefining business networks. It is also expected to make tremendous, unpredictable progress and changes in how cloud computing and networks perform in storing, moving, and accessing data. It will be possible as 5G brings more technological applications to make digital transformations faster and more efficient for businesses.
5G Network- Advantages
As said in the introduction, there are many advantages to 5G network. Some of them can be:
Greater transmission speed
Lower latency
Higher capacity
Compared to 4G, 5G has increased bandwidth.
These features will change the way people work, live, and play in the future once the 5G network comes into play widely.
How Will 5G Impact Cloud Computing?
Undoubtedly 5G has the potential to redefine the future of cloud computing. It will transform edge computing. Let us look in detail at what impact 5G will bring in cloud computing.
Mobile Cloud Applications to Become More Efficient and Widely Used
Undoubtedly 5G has the potential to redefine the future of cloud computing. It will transform edge computing. Let us look in detail at what impact 5G will bring in cloud computing.
Mobile Cloud Applications to Become More Efficient and Widely Used
Organizations today widely use cloud-enabled applications for customer services as well as for their different operations. Once the widespread use of the 5G network starts, the mobile application will become more efficient and widely used. It will be reflected more in the industries such as healthcare and banking.
Enabling Cloud Service Providers to Reach Customers Reliably and Easily
5G will make a machine to machine communication and larger computing possible. This will make accessing virtual machines via phones a common practice. Mobile users will get more features and options from cloud computing enterprises. Remote workers will access cloud services as hotspots will become faster and uninterrupted.
Complete Transformation of Edge Computing
The emergence of edge computing has solved the issues of unnecessary traffic on the cloud and latency. The need for edge computing became strong when internet penetration and IoT came into existence. Now, G5 will make edge computing grow, making it an essential thing.
G5 will transform edge computing entirely and increase the demand for it. As a result, edge and 5G are becoming mutually reinforcing phenomena. 5G will work on edge computing to provide quick real-time data. This is because edge computing has the potential to provide low latency and higher bandwidth.
Faster Streaming
5G network will surprise companies and entities with its fast data transfer capabilities. It will be ten times faster than the 4G network. It will facilitate storage and faster real-time streaming and thus productivity at its best.
“If everything you touch has to go to a data center and back before you see the animation, you're going to notice. Working at the 5G Lab in a mobile edge cloud, all of a sudden, what we thought would be impossible can happen because the 5G network is so fast.”
- Ian McLoughlin, LiquidSky Software founder, and CEO
Work from any Location
As 5G is ten times faster than 4G in transferring data due to its better connectivity, employees can work from any location. It will make remote work possible anywhere.
Better Security Systems
As technology is ever-evolving, hackers and online frauds come with advanced techniques to steal data. They hold the sensitive information of organizations and do unimaginable damage.
Once 5G is rolled out widely, administrators will recognize such frauds in advance and prepare to mitigate such cyber-attacks.
Summing up
Cloud computing is undoubtedly going to have an impact on cloud computing. The connectivity of 5G is ten times faster than 4G. IT will help people connect to their workplaces from any location. Remote work will make it easier.
Cloud mobile applications will become more efficient and reliable. The service providers will have a good relationship with customers as they will be providing prompt and reliable service in terms of connectivity. Joining together with other technologies such as edge computing, AI, ML, technology is expected to get into another level with the wide roll-out of 5G.
Frequently Asked Questions
How will 5G affect cloud computing?
Cloud computing will have a complete transformation and improvement when 5G is rolled out widely. The 5G connectivity has the features such as cloud virtualization, Ultra-reliable low-latency communication, better latency, increased bandwidth, and more flexible cloud-based management.

Since my last blog post warning about those who were predicting a "new paradigm" of shortage in the semiconductor industry, the media have been shouting about the "chip crisis" alongside the typical daily news diet of disaster and calamity that we have come to expect in the time of COVID. The chip shortage coverage helped create a sense of national anxiety that we were all too reliant on China for semiconductors and, in general, that semiconductor supply was dwindling. The predictable response from governments around the world was to announce plans to stimulate their respective domestic semiconductor manufacturers into expanding chip production capacity.
Fast forward a few months, and we are now finally seeing some light at the end of the chip shortage tunnel. Yet, in the wake of all the proclamations and commitments about investing in new chip capacity, we also now see manufacturers going forward with actually starting to build new plants that won't come online for another couple of years. The result, as I said in my last post: overcapacity.

Despite a global pandemic and the associated economic challenges, the world has moved to 5G four times faster than it did with 4G LTE, according to 5G Americas.
In the midst of this rollout, how can industries ensure that the benefits of 5G investment warrant the long-term investment costs? Or to put it another way, how can industries leverage 5G technology to build cost-efficient connected industry on a global scale?
The answer is the intelligent edge. The intelligent edge is the analysis of data and development of solutions at the site where the data is generated. By doing this, the intelligent edge reduces latency, costs and security risks, thus making the associated business more efficient. As 5G puts compute closer to the user (whether that be a human or a device) it enables a new paradigm of capabilities with AI, machine learning and a host of related use cases.

For communications service providers, questions still loom over how 5G will be monetized. Many have voiced the view that the enterprise segment is where 5G will make its money, with potential use cases across a breadth of verticals including the automotive, manufacturing and utilities industries to name a few. However, if service providers focus more on delivering 5G business use cases to small and midsized enterprises (SMEs), this market segment could prove to be a fruitful source of revenue.
As 5G deployments continue to roll-out globally, CSPs are focused on deriving value from projects and partnerships with large multinational enterprises. And they are eager to do so quickly to assure payback from their $1trillion investments in the next generation network. However, are CSPs blinkered in their approach to generating ROI from 5G? Are they limiting themselves by focusing too much on a small segment of the enterprise market, that to date has limited CSPs' involvement in early 5G projects, reducing them to mere providers of connectivity?
