Verizon and AWS announced the addition of new 5G mobile edge computing services in four more U.S. metropolitan areas this week. Charlotte, Detroit, Los Angeles and Minneapolis are the four newest U.S. metro areas to receive Verizon 5G Edge with AWS Wavelength service. Edge computing services like the Verizon and AWS minimize data latency by reducing the distance between the end user and the service.
Those locations join 14 others: Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Houston, Las Vegas, Miami, New York City, Phoenix, San Francisco’s Bay Area, Seattle and Washington, D.C. Verizon highlighted the network’s ability to perform for customers building autonomous drone and vehicle technology in a new blog post.
