Telco Cloud Deployment Tracker Q2 2024: Is AWS winning in hyperscale telco cloud?
Telco cloud deployment activity slowed down in Q2 2024 with only 20 deployments added to the tracker, eight of which were completed in earlier years. The remaining 12 included five 5G NSA cores (four already launched) and three SA cores, all of which we expect to go live by the end of 2024. In this report we analyse the prospects for 5G SA including a deep-dive on the state of deployments on the public cloud.

The industry is still on track to deliver 5G Standalone and various types of virtualised RAN – but progress is a lot slower than originally expected.

Telco Cloud Deployment Tracker : Is 5G SA getting real?
At the start of 2023, we were hopeful that the year would be that of 5G SA. In the event, only seven deployments materialised in the first 6 months leaving a staggering 30 in our tracker as “in progress” and to be completed in the second half of 2023. In this report, we discuss how likely it is that these deployments will take place in 2023 or at all and if 5G SA still matters.
How telcos can provide a tonic for transport

5G: Bridging hype, reality and future promises
What should telcos do to bridge the gaps between current hype, actual performance, and future promises on 5G?
