5G Slicing Will be a US$66 Billion Market
5G network slicing has become the focus of much attention in part due to its intrinsic ability to afford flexibility and dedicated resources. “Industrial segments, such as manufacturing, are pursuing digitalization and automation with vitality and substantial investments. 5G network slicing aims to serve as a stepping stone to drive productivity growth and enable the high-performance connectivity that underpins the dynamic, secure, and reliable interconnection of industrial systems and machinery,” said Don Alusha, senior analyst at ABI Research.
Cloud Video Segment Expected to Surpass 25% of the Enterprise Video Solutions Market by 2023
