Monetizing 5G at hyperscale
How the promises of the 5G revolution are moving rapidly to implementation and are benefitting from optimised Cloud-driven scale.
Layout canvas
Returns from 5G are already being realised by the extreme service flexibility and hyperscale capabilities of Cloud.
Whatever selection criteria are applied, the consensus is building that flexibility and cost savings allowed by Cloud (including edge processing) are more than sufficient to negate the earlier presumptions of business models related to “bare metal” infrastructure implementation. Launching services as needed and scaling up and back automatically in a 5G context is now more viable and economic for many service providers than could have been dreamt of in the early stages of 4G. Amdocs has been proving cloud-based scaling in massive volumes for use cases such as:
- Pooled price plans
- Allocations within a shared enterprise account
- Wholesale and multi-party pricing
- Time-of-day and device-type price models
- Ultra-flexible tiered pricing for enterprises
- Flexible promotions
