The After Show was broadcast live at the end of Day One of the Telcos and Public Cloud summit. TelecomTV’s Guy Daniels and Ray Le Maistre were joined by industry guest panellists for this question and answer session.

Among the questions raised by our audience were:

• Is it possible to align a telco’s internal cloud requirements with the external cloud services requested by customers?
• Will new telco and public cloud partnerships result in a rethink of Telco edge strategies?
• Are telcos going to have to accept over-provisioning of resources and accept the resulting high public cloud fees? Where is the public cloud innovation focused?
• If telcos switch multiple operations to the public cloud, what happens to their operations teams?
