5G technology has transformed business interactions with data, demanding a resilient and scalable infrastructure to support its high-performance requirements. Data centres and cloud computing are central to 5G's success, providing the scalability, ultralow latency, and high data throughput needed for next-generation connectivity.
Speaking at the Voice&Data 5G+ Conference's panel discussion on 'Data Centres and Cloud: Paving the Way for 5G+ and Beyond,' industry leaders delved into how businesses can leverage cloud-based solutions to optimise 5G deployments, meet rising data demands, and deliver faster more reliable services. The discussion also explored challenges around scalability, energy efficiency, and regulatory compliance, critical for sustaining robust 5G networks.
Moderated by Ibrahim Ahmad, Group Editor at CyberMedia, the panel examined the essential role of data centres and cloud infrastructure in enabling 5G innovation, highlighting their interplay in supporting the real-time, high-volume data needs of tomorrow's digital world.
DATA CENTRES AND CLOUD
Sudakshina Laha, Head of Services, MSIT and ADM, Cloud Software and Services, Ericsson, emphasised the importance of edge networks and centralised server systems, comprising cloud infrastructure and data centres, in enabling 5G. She highlighted that edge data centres reduce latency while centralised cloud servers provide coordinated monitoring and control. She added that cloud-native applications, built on microservices architecture, enable rapid updates and scaling.
