5G is coming, in addition to changing people's work and life, its bandwidth, latency and connectivity characteristics also force the data center to change to meet the needs of the 5G era. Specifically, 5G will transform the data center in terms of shape and scale, hardware composition and software scale.

What does 5G bring?

High bandwidth and low latency are important characteristics of 5G network. In addition, 5G also has a hundred times higher connection number than 4G. Specifically, in terms of download speed, 5G can actually reach 300-400MB/s, which is 100 times faster than the current 4G speed, which makes it possible to download a movie in a blink of an eye.

Polarization of shape and scale of data center

Similarly, in the 5G era, applications such as VR/AR, the Internet of vehicles and the Internet of things have strict requirements for delayed transmission rate and response processing. Data centers in the 4G era can no longer be needed in the future and need to be reformed urgently.

Data center isomerization

In addition, if you want to improve the computing power of the data center, in addition to increasing the number of servers to expand the cluster, another way is to increase the computing power of a single server. In addition to computing power, applications in the 5G era also have higher requirements for server network throughput and data IO, and the traditional x86 server can no longer meet the demand.

SDP is used in data center

At the same time, stability has always been a basic requirement for data centers, and cost is also an important consideration for data center operators. With the development and maturity of software definition technology. In addition to Software-defined Network (SDN) and Software-defined Storage (SDS), Software-defined Power supply (SDP) technology has also emerged and will be applied to data centers in the 5G era.

Conclusion

5G is coming, perhaps the biggest beneficiary is the operators, and operators in addition to strenuous deployment of the network, must not ignore the transformation of the data center.
