As telco operators around the world ramp up 5G networks, they’re increasingly faced with competitors that are making it difficult to successfully monetize those networks. Despite that operators have made huge investments in networks – both legacy and 5G – their returns haven’t been proportional to their investment.
Moreover, revenue from connectivity continues to decline, even as expectations are growing for higher bandwidth, faster speeds, lower latency – and all at a reduced price. As such, it’s vital for operators to focus on new business services, especially those like edge computing. The edge computing market is rapidly developing and attracting new players, providing new opportunities to operators – as well as their competitors.
