Combining private networks and edge computing: the opportunity for operators

Private networks and edge computing are hot topics for telecoms operators, but the take-up of solutions that combine the two as been low to-date. Operators need to develop a strategy to drive demand and win a high share of that demand, even though they will mostly be reliant on partners for the technology itself.

This report provides:

• data on the take-up of combined edge computing and private networks solutions
• details of the challenges facing telecoms operators as they enter this market
• suggestions for how operators can be proactive in promoting their solutions
• ideas for how operators can differentiate their offers
• a longer-term perspective on how operators can benefit from the move to the greater use of the wide network for private connectivity and edge computing solutions.
