Mobile Edge Computing (MEC), defined by ETSI, enhances cloud computing by shifting data processing closer to the user at the network edge. This architecture supports real-time analytics and machine intelligence while reducing core network load and congestion. MEC integrates computing, storage, and networking resources at the base station, enabling efficient handling of mobile applications and services.
Mobile edge computing an important step to a virtual world!
- 1. MOBILE EDGE COMPUTING-AN IMPORTANT STEP TO A VIRTUAL WORLD!
- 2. Mobile Edge Computing is now known as Multi-access edge computing. It is an ETSI defined network architecture concept. Multi-Access Edge computing cloud computing activates computing of traffic and services from a centralized cloud to the edge of the network and closer to the customer. The network edge itself analyses, processes and stores data instead of sending it to the cloud.
- 3. Relevance of MEC Social network services like Facebook and Twitter, the content of YouTube and Netflix and Google map navigation tools are on clouds. Increasing usage of mobiles requires offloading of data to the cloud to carry out computation and storage-intensive operations. This objective is difficult to realize without bringing the cloud closer to the edge of the network and users. In MEC, computing, storage and networking resources are integrated with the base station.
- 4. Potential Capabilities of MEC MEC would divide applications into small subtasks with some of the tasks performed at local or regional clouds while preserving latency and accuracy. The MEC server would provide access to user traffic and radio network information besides computing resources, storage capacity and onnectivity to tailor their applications. It has software for real-time analytics and machine intelligence. It can entertain queries from devices that need response time below 100minutes.
- 5. With virtualization at the radio access network, operators can allow third- party tenants at the base station. MEC would reduce the load on the core network, decrease congestion and make more money out of the edge network. Open source management platform called Multi-Cloud Application Delivery allows users to have control over their resources and applications and program their policy on virtual resources anywhere on the participating clouds.
