Verizon with Microsoft launches the Verizon 5G Edge with Microsoft Azure Stack Edge cloud computing platform
By MYBRANDBOOK
Verizon has teamed up with Microsoft to launch the Verizon 5G Edge with Microsoft Azure Stack Edge cloud computing platform, as promised when it announced its partnership with the software giant last autumn. It is now able to offer business customers an on-premise, private edge compute solution that enables the ultra-low latency required for real-time enterprise applications, it declared.
In October the companies paraded logistics and supply chain solutions company Ice Mobility as their reference customer. The firm was trialling the offer - made up of Verizon’s on-site 5G Edge platform integrated with Microsoft Azure - using its ability to gather data in near-real-time to deal with product packaging errors.
Ice Mobility used the solution to help with computer vision-assisted product packaging, Verizon said, and helpfully provided an image to demonstrate what that might look like. Essentially, it’s about improving on-site quality assurance. Presumably happy with its experience, Ice Mobility is now exploring additional 5G applications that use computer vision and 5G Edge to improve automation.
The Ice Mobility trial lends credence to Verizon’s claims of the benefits of on-site 5G and edge computing to various types of businesses. Retailers can use near-real-time data processing to enable greater inventory accuracy, and faster and more flexible supply chains, while manufacturers can maximise performance, minimise downtime, and improve visibility of processes, it notes.
