5G from a carrier service provider (CSP) perspective can be defined as the cloudification of their networks. 5G standards also have new capabilities like network slicing, dynamic spectrum sharing as CSPs move towards cloudified architectures which previous generations of mobile networks did not. In this segment, Jim Brisimitzis, Founder and General Partner at 5G Open Innovation Lab, goes into detail about the evolution towards 5G and the edge and why they feel a software ecosystem exploring the potential of 5G in edge computing needs to be put in place.
