The evolution driving through the cellular technology industry since the early years of 1G has met several waves of iterations and generations. From the unsung days of 2G and 3G to the gloried standards of 4G, the world currently has on its palm a new standard for cellular networks in 5G.

While telecom providers are pushing gallantly to ensure the quick rollout of the network across the globe, some emerging technologies are already carving out use cases from the 5G era. Despite all the bustle and scramble around 5G, there needs to be clarity over the network’s capabilities, its pros and cons, and to what extent it will expand the gains of its predecessors.

The global need for enhanced mobile connectivity is on a steady rise, and these demands are peaking, exerting too much pressure on cellular broadband networks. This situation is already pushing more smartphone and critical equipment manufacturers to feature phone-satellite connectivity. As a result, the mobile satellite phone market is not slowing down in its expansion.

Barely a week into the new year, we are already witnessing a significant entrant into the mobile satellite communication market in Qualcomm. The U.S.-based wireless tech maker has hit the ground running already with a deal that will see it collaborate with Iridium and Garmin

Today, many organizations worldwide rely on cloud deployments as the key enabler to meeting business transformation goals. As a result, the public cloud has been the most widely used cloud deployment model, with an expected global market size of about $600 billion in 2023, according to a recent Gartner worldwide public cloud report. In the U.K., for instance, the public cloud market has shown tremendous growth, as a Statista report shows that British revenue in the public cloud market is project

Hybrid cloud has become a popular computing model in recent times. Find out all you need to know, including its features, pros and cons.

As computing needs evolve, enterprises continuously find it difficult to scale their business offerings on private or on-premises computing environments. That’s why there are third-party or public cloud providers to enable businesses to carry out larger computational workloads.

However, there are situations where companies may wish to combine private cloud or

Database management is a vital element of every business organization. Businesses depend largely on properly managed data to understand their competitors, customers, and product requirements. As such, there will always be a demand for specialists with the requisite skills to handle databases. These specialists are widely known as database administrators (DBAs).

With the importance attached to the roles of database administrators in organizations, plus the growing job availability as supported b

Cloud security solutions continue to emerge as threats to cloud resources evolve. However, what are the common trends to look out for in cloud security in the coming years? Let's find out.

The evolution of cloud computing technology has enabled many businesses to improve their competitive agility and reduce the cost of operations. Today, many business organizations have completed the migration of their computing resources to the cloud, while several others are halfway through cloud migration. A

Cloudflare celebrates its 12th anniversary with the launch of a Zero Trust SIM, an IoT security platform and a Botnet Threat Feed.

Having a safe and secure internet has been a major concern for enterprises due to the growing number of successful cyberattacks on organizations worldwide.

Among the companies who have taken an interest in profiting from the art of protection is American firm Cloudflare. As a cloud security service and content delivery network provider, Cloudflare has been operatin

IoT use cases continue to grow as this report projects that the IoT-enabled asset tracking and monitoring market will witness exponential growth in the coming years.

When the Internet of Things first appeared on the technological stage, there was some level of uncertainty surrounding its use cases across industries. A few decades later, we’re already witnessing IoT applications in about every industry.

Today, one of the prominent use cases of IoT solutions that’s generated a lot of attention a

Edge AI is a new computing paradigm that incorporates AI within edge computing frameworks. Here are some of the benefits and use cases.

Edge computing adoption has witnessed a significant amount of growth in recent years. A recent report by Research and Markets records that the global edge computing market size is anticipated to reach $155.90 billion by 2030.

Part of what has driven the growth of edge computing adoption in industries is artificial intelligence. With the rise in IoT application

Although edge computing and IoT are two different technologies, there seems to be a growing convergence between the two.

As more tech enterprises look for easier ways to optimize their solutions and reduce running costs, there is a growing demand for edge computing. Computing on the edge help to facilitate the processing of data without depending solely on centralized data centers, and IoT devices seem to be at the forefront in the application of this computing paradigm.
