How Edge Computing Is Rethinking 5G Small Cell Backhaul
Episode 43 of The Edge Computing Podcast takes a close look at a bottleneck most people overlook: the backhaul connection behind 5G small cells. Lucas explains why centralized backhaul creates latency problems that edge computing can solve, and Luna brings in a real-world example from a midsize UK city where distributed compute nodes cut packet round-trips by 40 percent. The hosts walk through how edge nodes can cache, process, and route traffic locally before it ever hits the core network, and why mobile operators are starting to colocate compute with radio gear. The conversation touches on…
