5G and Edge Computing: Facilitating AI at the Edge with High-Performance Edge Computers and IoT

The rise of 5G networks is creating new opportunities across various industries. A key feature of 5G is its ability to support software-defined networks (SDN), making data and device management easier through intelligent software layers.

To fully leverage the potential of 5G, an open edge ecosystem is required, comprising hardware, software, applications, and network components. This ecosystem enables the deployment of private 5G networks and open RAN infrastructures for running IoT and AI applications closer to the data source. Edge computing is crucial in this context, as 5G's high-speed data transfer capabilities necessitate a robust infrastructure of edge nodes to offload the core network and enable efficient local data management.

Alchemy helps industries get benefit from the integration of AI, IoT, virtualization, 5G and edge computing

Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) provides cloud computing capabilities and IT infrastructure and services at the network edge. Alchemy offers rugged and fanless edge servers for hyper-converged infrastructure at the edge
Mission-critical industrial applications, such as advanced robotics, require immediate responses to critical events to prevent damage or malfunctions. 5G enables faster data exchange, significantly reducing latency and allowing for immediate responses to avoid accidents.
Telecom operators require numerous edge base stations to relieve the core network of the high bandwidth demands of 5G.(OTT) streaming service providers also benefit from a robust edge server infrastructure for efficient and local data stream management.
5G and edge computing are vital in disaster recovery scenarios, where high-availability, secure network communications are needed for rescue operations. Highly portable and rugged computers are essential for managing these data communications.
Reducing latency in communications is crucial for transportation and automotive applications. Advanced onboard sensors, such as cameras, RADARs, and LIDARs, generate terabytes of data in short time frames, requiring efficient data processing at the edge.
Multi-access Edge Computing offers significant benefits to the Oil & Gas industry, increasing operational efficiency and profitability of oil platforms located in remote areas, far from enterprise data center infrastructures.
