边缘计算产业现状与发展建议

Industrial status and development suggestions of Mobile Edge Computing

随着5G商用,以及IoT和AI的发展,边缘计算的规模和业务复杂度显著增加,边缘实时计算、边缘实时分析和边缘智能等新型业务不断涌现,对边缘基础设施的效率、可靠性和资源利用率有了更高的要求。如何结合云计算发展趋势打造边缘基础设施成为一个新课题。梳理了边缘计算发展现状,包括边缘计算产业规模、国际国内电信运营商在边缘计算领域的试点工作,讨论了"多云混合"对边缘计算的影响,分析了边缘计算存在的问题和挑战,并结合项目实践给出了相应的发展建议。

With the commercialization of 5G network,and the development of IoT and AI,the scale and complexity of edge computing have increased significantly.New services such as edge real-time computing,edge real-time analysis and edge intelligence are emerging,which require higher efficiency,reliability and resource utilization of edge infrastructure.How to adapt to the development trend of cloud computing and build Mobile Edge Computing(MEC)infrastructure has become a new topic.This paper reviews the development status of MEC,including the scale of MEC industry and the pilot work results of international and domestic telecom operators in MEC,and discusses the impact of the multi-cloud and hybrid cloud on MEC.Afterwards,the issues and challenges of MEC are analyzed and some suggestions based on the telecom operators’practices are proposed.
