Finnish telco Elisa has enlisted the edge computing expertise of Wind River to build a fully automated 5G far edge cloud, aimed at low-latency and bandwidth-intensive 5G applications. It’s in planning production now and scheduled for deployment later this year, said Wind River.
Wind River Studio will be used as the common distributed cloud platform to “host multiple vendors and multiple technologies in order to further extend cloudification of distributed core and radio functionalities,” said Wind River CTO Paul Mitchell. Wind River will also provide automation and analytics to run the edge network at scale, he said.
