Spirent Lab Modernization for Global Enterprise

As 5G emerges from initial coverage deployments into adolescence, the urgency to identify new revenue opportunities has intensified. Gaming, AR/VR, video content and security surveillance headline an array of hot prospects under consideration. Delivering the performance and latency to power these next-gen services will require 5G to fully embrace its cloud architecture and will also place unprecedented demands on an array of telco, public/private and edge clouds.
This webinar covers:
• How performance and latency requirements for new 5G services will stress telco, public/private and edge clouds
• What it means for 5G to go cloud-native and the major testing headaches it brings
• Why visibility across different types of clouds is so critical for 5G and what failure to address it could mean
• How the move to edge services exacerbates this visibility challenge
• New test and assurance techniques and CICD practices to impro

Will 5G Break the Cloud?

A new era in the age of AI has begun. Rapidly increasing AI workloads, together with edge computing and cloud-based 5G networks, are putting extreme demands on modern data center networks.
