With 5G, enterprise verticals will have different requirements from their CSPs than consumers; some of them will not only require communications but also computing resources – they want their connectivity to be more agile and flexible. China Mobile, like many other CSPs, is shifting from using proprietary technologies to off-the-shelf solutions. Intel’s new Cascade Lake generation of processors are specifically optimized for network workloads. China Mobile explains that power consumption is now a major factor because more and more computing power needs to be deployed in networks, so the balance between consumption and computing power is now critically important.
