EasyChair Preprint 13674

Abstract

The rapid advancements in edge computing and the deployment of 5G networks have significantly impacted the landscape of cloud-driven innovation. This paper examines the transformative influence of these emerging technologies on the way organizations develop and deploy innovative digital solutions.

Edge computing, with its ability to process data closer to the source, has enabled new use cases that require real-time processing, low latency, and reduced data transmission costs. The integration of edge computing with 5G's high-speed, low-latency, and increased connectivity has paved the way for a new generation of applications and services that were previously unimaginable.

This paper analyzes how the convergence of edge computing and 5G has empowered organizations to rethink their cloud-based strategies, leading to the development of more efficient, responsive, and personalized digital experiences. It explores the ways in which these technologies have facilitated the emergence of innovative solutions in areas such as industrial automation, smart cities, autonomous vehicles, and healthcare.

Furthermore, the paper discusses the challenges and considerations organizations face in harnessing the full potential of edge computing and 5G, including issues related to data privacy, security, and the integration of legacy systems. It also highlights the evolving role of cloud platforms in this new ecosystem, where they act as orchestrators and enablers of edge-driven innovation.
