Edge Computing

Multi-access edge computing (MEC) or Edge Computing is essentially a cloud-based IT service environment at the edge of the network. MEC is a network architecture that brings real-time, high-bandwidth, low-latency access to radio network information, allowing operators to open their networks to a new ecosystem and value chain. MEC permits multiple types of access at the edge, including wireline.
