Cloud-Native and Edge Computing for Communication Networks

Cloud-native technologies are redefining the deployment and operation of modern communication networks by enabling modular, scalable, and resilient architectures. This track examines cloud-native principles such as microservices, containerization, and continuous integration and deployment. Participants will explore how these technologies support flexible network functions, rapid innovation, and efficient lifecycle management in wireless and satellite networks.

Edge computing is also a central focus of this track, addressing the need for low-latency and context-aware services. By bringing computation and storage closer to end users, edge computing enables real-time applications such as autonomous systems, industrial automation, and immersive media. The track discusses edge-cloud collaboration, orchestration strategies, and performance optimization. Through this exploration, participants will gain insights into how cloud-native and edge computing paradigms enhance network efficiency, responsiveness, and service quality.
