Piotr Weglicki, Global Telco Lead, Compute and Enterprise AI, AMD

Performance in telecom is evolving beyond simple peak throughput metrics. AMD’s global telco lead, Piotr Weglicki, discusses how operators now prioritise performance per watt, deterministic low-latency communication, and workload efficiency in virtualised environments. He examines architectural innovations including cloud-native designs, compute pooling, and platform improvements that enable better resource utilisation. While AI and edge computing increase energy consumption at specific nodes, intelligent optimisation and dynamic resource allocation can reduce overall network power consumption, particularly during off-peak periods.
