Cloud Technology and 5G

Cloud Technology will be a key enabler for 5G networks. 5G mobile systems are expected to meet different strict requirements beyond the traditional operator use cases

Effectively, to accommodate needs of new industry segments such as healthcare and manufacturing, 5G systems need to accommodate elasticity, flexibility, dynamicity, scalability, manageability, agility, and customization along the different levels of service delivery parameters according to the service requirement.

This is currently possible only by running the networks on top of the same infrastructure. The combination of technologies called Network Function Virtualization (NFV), Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Cloud Computing give us a number of technical possibilities to support a very large number of subscribers.

In this lecture will explore a number of these important areas in more depth.
