“5G enterprises in Asia-Pacific are undergoing digital transformation at a more rapid pace to either optimize or enable business processes to keep up with the changing consumer demand,” said Sofea Zukarnain, Information & Communication Technologies Research Analyst at Frost & Sullivan. “However, these digital transformation initiatives will add pressure on existing networks, as new solutions will require higher bandwidth and availability to offer the necessary reliability, driving the need for enterprises to transform their network infrastructure. This will boost the demand for 5G enterprise solutions and new enabling technologies such as network slicing and edge computing.”
Zukarnain added: “Network slicing will empower enterprises with end-to-end ownership of a slice of the 5G network that can be used for a specific use case. Further, there are many benefits to utilizing a slice of 5G, including the ability to provide enterprises with better control, management capability, and agility of the network so that it can optimize the usage of the network for enterprises.”
5G enterprise solutions have the potential to transform services, applications, and capabilities for enterprises, presenting immense growth prospects for market participants, including:
- Implementing automation to enable an open application programming interface (API), allowing flexibility, manageability, and cost savings.
- Utilizing edge computing to address the need to handle rising IoT-enabled use cases due to the increasing number of connected devices in the network.
- Offering network slicing solutions to meet the demand for more bandwidth offered with SLAs.
- Using artificial intelligence to help cognitive engagement to better connect with customers and anticipate their needs and potential problems.
