First, high reliability. Ultra-low latency will indeed have a big impact, the application level is relatively small for a short period of time, and the impact of the back-end will gradually emerge. If the 5G wireless latency is reduced, the challenge is to find ways to reduce the back end of the link, while this is also a proportionate problem.
Second, edge computing. The benefits of edge computing lies in the delay, a lot of processing from the end to the edge on the end, without having to go to the cloud above, including security control, some edge computing can control the scene may be better security. There are also some services, because the back of a very long link out of the problem is very big, if the end-to-edge distance is shorter, the probability of problems is lower, when the background is broken or viable, this is an important edge computing aspects.
From the point of view of the delay, the current Internet used more is CDN, the importance of CDN in 5G will be greatly increased, because everyone pursues the requirements of low latency, when the delay of 5G is low, the bandwidth is large on the content response has a great deal of enhancement, there are a lot of combinations of CDN.
Third, heterogeneous resources. For the user experience, from the front-end transmission to the transmission of the back-end device, which is a big cycle. If the time spent on transmission becomes shorter, customers ask whether the calculation can be faster, which is a natural choice. If the calculation is slow and the storage time is short then the user experience is not good.
Now there is heterogeneous computing, such as the way of GPUs related to artificial intelligence, now the calculation is not only by the GPU there are a variety of gas pedals, there may be FPGAs and AM different calculations, this is a big trend, according to the unified way, all the calculation is X86.
Fourth, storage. 5G is going to be faster and better, from a low-latency perspective. A lot of storage computing architecture, a lot of systems are in the storage structure, this trend can also be matched up, in the field of storage intensity to be high, and fast. The industry is studying the way memory and external memory and, memory off the chain will not fall technology, the entire architecture, von Neumann's architecture at some point in the transformation, making in the traditional performance change, even in the storage plus processor to improve processing speed, shorten the processing cycle delay.
Fifth, the overall transformation of the network. 5G is essentially a solution to the terminal of the last kilometer, of course, may not even the last kilometer, if the frequency is higher the distance will be closer, this is only the smallest section of the transmission chain. From the point of view of cloud platform construction, we need to consider the entire network planning, not only the last kilometer of the section, such as the DC network to be more low-latency, as well as the overall architecture of the network, on the one hand, you can take full advantage of the 5G end of the situation of the decline in latency, but also to make the latency even more reduced, that is, the end-to-end network latency reduction can not rely on the 5G end.
Sixth, large-scale connectivity aspects, including large-scale machine communications, the impact on the overall cloud is also relatively large, we know that 5G has a great feature, the speed of connection per square kilometer can be more than 2 million, the traditional communication does not need such a large amount of communication, because there are not so many people, in the development of the Internet towards the direction of the Internet of everything, the need for more objects, Appliances, small devices will be connected to the 5G to bring a big push, from the cloud need to be combined to see how to do.
