5G will drive edge computing, IoT in India in 2020
With more and more Indian enterprises striving to go digital, the increased speed and bandwidth of 5G networks will drive a new round of transformation across India from next year, industry leaders said on Thursday.
There will be a shift of computing to the edge, as India’s businesses take advantage of the benefits of cloud and hyper-converged infrastructure to deal with increasing data gravity.
“With legacy three-tier architectures already struggling to cope with high volumes of data generated by today’s enterprises, 5G will be the catalyst that drives edge computing and IoT,” Balakrishnan Anantharaman, VP and MD-Sales, India and SAARC, Nutanix, told.
