This encourages operators and service providers in becoming more adaptable, dynamic, and cost efficient, enabling faster to market offerings adapting to market needs.”
Speaking in the Seminar were industry representatives from the Open Compute Project (OCP), a collaborative group focused on redefining hardware technology to efficiently support the growing demands on compute infrastructure, making it more efficient and flexible to achieve greater choice, customization, and cost savings. Also among the speakers were representatives from the Open Networking Foundation (ONF), who transform access by collaboratively developing next-generation mobile and broadband infrastructures through forefront technologies.
