This will provide an excellent platform for developers and tech companies to undertake the testing of newer technologies like augmented reality, self-driving cars, drones, and virtual reality. This testing platform is expected to become functional in early 2018 and will initially utilize a 4G LTE connection. AT&amp;T<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> expects to upgrade it to the more advanced 5G networks after all the final standards and equipment is set.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Melissa Arnoldi, the President of AT&amp;T<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> Technology and Operations said, \u201cEdge computing is the next step in the evolution of the network. As connectivity becomes ubiquitous and fast, it also needs to become smart. Edge computing puts a supercomputer in your pocket, on your wrist, in your car, and right in front of your eyes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Edge computing also known as multi-access edge computing (MEC) has attained a renewed importance. It has been proven as an effective way to minimize the distance of travel for data processing that will minimize latency and thus enhance the performance of the network. Most of the networks operating today suffer from high latency due to the increased physical distance between the user and the data center. With edge computing, the data processing is moved much closer to the user.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2106\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2106\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2106\" class=\"wp-image-2106 size-medium\" title=\"Improving Network Perfomance\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Cable-Providers-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Best Internet Service\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Cable-Providers-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thetripleplay.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Cable-Providers.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2106\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em><strong>Multi-Access Edge Computing <\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For this, AT&amp;T<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> one of the best internet service will install numerous graphics processors and computers in the cellular towers, small cells, and other major components of the network.

With this, users can easily run high-end applications in the cloud without the presence of any lags.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">AT&amp;T<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> has proposed several projects using AR\/VR, drones and autonomous cars developed in the edge computing test zone. The Telco has invited several developers and third parties to use their test zones for their individual projects.
