Telco Cloud-Edge Working group
The Working Group on Telco Cloud-Edge deals with Open reference architectures for open cloud and edge infrastructure, standards for data centers, AI-based predictive maintenance of datacenters and cloud & edge infrastructure, networking, time synchronization, requirements across providers, security, automated operations, APIs for bare-metal as a service. Furthermore, it will work on optimized data centre design for cloud and edge, advanced simulation and prediction capabilities, security and accessibility of physical infrastructure, open hardware, operating systems, operation management & monitoring, connectivity, network orchestration with multi-cloud orchestration, edge infrastructure deployment, network functions at the edge, connectivity between cloud and edge, edge connectivity at scale. The Working Group will contribute to the setting up of an appropriate and supported next generation infrastructure to manage the technological complexity of the meshed continuum. Lastly, its aim is to develop and set up physical and logical linking of networks including integrated smart network services for the cloud-edge continuum. This will enable the entire network to combine cloud-edge computing processes and data transfer throughout the EU.
The Working Group co-leaders are David Artuñedo and Anders Lindgren.
