AI, edge computing, and 5G are converging to create a new generation of infrastructure stress points
Artificial Intelligence is transforming industries across the globe, and it's more than a trend; it's reshaping the telecom landscape. AI-powered applications bring new and unpredictable demands on networks that...
Instead of simply carrying packets from one endpoint to another, a Neighborhood AI Factory is also running inference and training between humans and AI
You’ve probably driven past one without realizing it. A low, windowless brick building next to a cell tower or up on...
AI simply won’t deliver on its promise unless it has sufficient compute power
There is one thing that we can count on as we head towards the end of 2025 and the beginning of 2026: Interest in “all things AI” will continue to grow. This...
IT and OT must recognize that the only way forward is together — digital transformation isn’t going anywhere, leaving little choice but for these two sides to coexist
The days of separate IT and OT environments are over. What were once air-gapped industrial networks are...
At the edge, solving for thermal and power efficiency is just as critical as managing bandwidth and latency
AI at the edge is helping telecom operators enhance network reliability, optimize performance, and detect threats in real-time. These use cases require powerful compute, often in locations...
In a volatile world, telecom procurement can no longer operate on the assumption that global supply chains will hold firm
In recent years, telecom operators have faced what can only be described as a state of permanent disruption. Events once considered rare — pandemics, geopolitical...
Modern technology creates growth opportunities, but it also creates new security risks. Businesses can no longer just react to threats; security has to be built into the foundation.
Similarly, the nature of cyberattacks has changed. A recent study revealed that automated scans now probe public-facing...
