BT is expanding its cooperation with AWS to give UK business customers access to 5G and 4G edge computing services via AWS Wavelength.
To kickstart the multi-million-pound venture, AWS Wavelength services will be available for trials initially in Manchester.
The initiative will help companies that can benefit from edge computing as BT combines its 4G and 5G networks with AWS cloud capacities.
Alex Tempest, MD for BT Wholesale, said: “As we continue to build 5G infrastructure for the UK, launching the AWS Wavelength service for our business and wholesale customers is a hugely important step on our journey.
“By building cloud edge services into our 5G and 4G EE network, we can accelerate innovation across industries.”
By the end of the year, BT anticipates that its mobile edge services will be open to all UK businesses.
