Data centers & network performance monitoring: Cloud connectivity becomes just as critical as compute

Sometimes it takes a new formula to deliver a next-level 5G Home Internet experience. For fixed-wireless access (FWA), it takes a fast and reliable network that can deliver the experience that consumers expect at home. It requires in-home FWA solutions that consumers can easily install and use. And finally, since Wi-Fi is the technology that connects most devices in the home today, the Wi-Fi must be spot on.

The global demand for data centers is peaking but construction is becoming increasingly difficult. Data center operators are turning to prefabricated modular data center (PMDC) solutions for a right-sized, scalable, and fast deployment. Omdia and Vertiv review the results from a survey of global decision makers which demonstrates why the technology has become a go-to for colocation and cloud service providers, telecommunication companies, and enterprises from every industry.

​For many healthcare organizations, provider onboarding happens through emails, faxes, and mountains of paperwork. This slow, outdated process impacts network growth as well as provider experience. The shortcomings of today’s provider network management experience can pose compliance risks and security breaches, result in significant provider dissatisfaction, and slow the growth of healthcare organizations’ networks. Digitizing network management is one solution. How?A unified platform can connect systems and data to drive operational efficiencies and collaboration with providers. By leveraging a unified system of engagement, organizations can keep their providers happy, grow their networks, reduce costs, and deliver better care.

According to Analysys Mason, nearly 80% of mobile operators around the world plan to start the commercial deployment of standalone (SA) 5G networks by 2025. With a SA 5G network, operators can employ service-based architectures that can support web scale technologies, open source software, and high levels of automation. Cloud native technology will be key to deploying a SA 5G core as it delivers more agility, flexibility, and reusability across both new and legacy network platforms.
