In-memory computing and the 5G Ecosystem
We’ve seen the marketing for the new fifth-generation mobile networks. The benefits for end-users are easy to understand. Speeds faster than your home broadband and latencies only a little slower promise to be game-changers for consumers, enhancing existing applications and opening open entirely new categories that we can’t currently imagine.
This shift in technology also represents an opportunity for network owners and their suppliers. As with any technology leap, there are also challenges. The dramatic increase in speed is matched only by the scale. Studies show that there are over 3.5 billion smartphones in use around the world — and that number is rising — meaning that even a relatively modest carrier can have millions of customers. Meeting these demanding latency requirements with millions of simultaneous users isn’t easy.

Scenario one:
Issue: My database lags, and with your cache it slows down even
How does a typical web…
