Google Cloud is headed to AT&T’s network edge thanks to a new partnership that was announced on Thursday. The two industry giants are teaming up to build enterprise use cases, which could include video analytics, augmented and virtual reality applications and data-intensive sensors.
“AT&T, like other service providers, sees a valuable opportunity to become an edge player to facilitate lower latency connections to cloud applications,” said Scott Raynovich, the founder and chief analyst of Futuriom, in an email to FierceTelecom.
