The world is piling up connected IoT things faster than it can keep track of them. From Nairobi to Naples, fridges, meters, and soil sensors are humming data into the cloud. Then, one day, they stop. Not with a bang, but with a firmware...
As legacy networks phase out, RedCap offers a 5G-ready path for low-power, high-volume IoT
As 5G networks continue to evolve globally, a quieter but equally important transformation is underway: the integration of massive-scale, reduced capability cellular applications into the 5G ecosystem. These are the...
AI could prove hugely and positively transformative — but it's also not without its difficulties
Recently, OpenAI announced the Stargate Project — a $500 billion investment in infrastructure to support artificial intelligence (AI) technology. Although this investment is necessary to support the booming growth of...
From cloud migration to AI integration, five forces are reshaping global enterprise telecom strategies
