AWS Goes to the Edge

Amazon Web Services Inc. (AWS) has announced AWS Wavelength,  which provides developers the ability to build applications that serve end-users with single-digit millisecond latencies over a 5G network. 

Wavelength embeds AWS compute and storage services at the edge of telecommunications providers’ 5G networks, enabling developers to serve use-cases that require ultra-low latency like machine learning inference at the edge, autonomous industrial equipment, smart cars and cities, Internet of Things (IoT), and Augmented and Virtual Reality. 

AWS customers can now use the same familiar AWS APIs, tools, and functionality they use today, to deliver-low latency applications at the edge of the 5G network, around the world, AWS says. 

AWS is partnering with Verizon, Vodafone, SK Telecom, and KDDI) to launch AWS Wavelength across Europe, South Korea, and Japan in 2020, with more global partners “coming soon,” AWS says.
