Mobile Edge Computing, Part 1: Delivering Data Faster with Verizon 5G Edge and MongoDB

Mobile Edge Computing is a new cloud paradigm that combines the best experiences of hyperscaler compute and storage with the topological proximity of 5G networks. It introduces a new mode of cloud deployments whereby enterprises can run applications within the 5G network itself, across both public and private networks. Verizon's mobile edge compute portfolio, Verizon 5G Edge, takes these concepts from theoretical to practical by creating a unified compute mesh across both public and private networks. This allows for seamless exchange of data and stateful workloads. However, it also presents challenges such as deployment, orchestration, and edge discovery. Fortunately, Verizon has developed a suite of network APIs tailored to answer these questions, simplifying the level of effort required to build resilient applications at the network edge. By pairing the power of 5G networks with intelligent software, companies can start using data for innovation. MongoDB Atlas is a next-gen data platform that provides organizations with a fully managed, elastically scalable developer data platform upon which to build modern applications. It enables diverse data to be ingested, persisted, and served in ways that support a growing variety of use cases, making it an ideal solution for the central, cloud-based datastore in edge or multi-edge based architectures.
