At the recently held "GSMA Thrive · All Things Born and Glory - New Infrastructure and Enterprise Digitalization Forum", Dr. Tang Xiongyan, chief scientist of China Unicom Network Technology Research Institute, gave a speech on "5G edge computing and Computing Power Network".

"In the development of 5G, edge computing is an important direction that can reflect the characteristics of 5G networks." Tang Xiongyan pointed out that the main reasons why 5G calls for edge computing are low service latency, large bandwidth and data localization. In recent years, China Unicom has actively promoted the ecological construction and application demonstration of edge computing, enabling thousands of industries to transform digitally.

Edge computing also poses new challenges to the network. With the development of artificial intelligence and computing power moving from cloud to edge and terminal, the entire computing power will be integrated into the vast ocean of the network. The computing and network will be deeply integrated, and the computing power of cloud edge will be fully coordinated. Application deployment matching computing, network forwarding perceptual computing, and network development will move towards a new stage of intelligent computing network, opening a new era of cloud network integration 2.0.
