Edge computing is opening up new use cases that are computing and data-intensive, latency-sensitive, or require
data residency, security or resilience. As edge becomes a commercial reality and more players compete in the
space, the Mobile Network Operators (MNO) community is acting fast to claim a stake in the edge value chain
by capitalising on its edge and network capabilities. 5G and edge are complementary, for the most part, the value lies in new and improved methods of communication, which sometimes include faster, lower latency methods of communicating between devices.
