Amazon Web Services (AWS) has launched new Outpost offerings including racks and servers designed for telecommunications customers. These racks have been designed for high throughput, network-intensive workloads, and AWS Outposts servers designed for Cloud Radio Access Network (RAN) workloads.

“With the new AWS Outposts offerings, the AWS cloud continuum can now extend to the furthest edge of the 5G network, allowing telcos to run their entire 5G network including 5G Core and 5G RAN on AWS cloud services. The AWS Outposts rack offering features a new architecture that allows cost-efficient capacity scaling to meet the growing throughput demands on the most densely populated 5G networks globally," said Dave Brown, VP of compute and networking at AWS.

Brown added: "These offerings will empower telcos to build a future-proof cloud infrastructure to support 5G and beyond. The breakthrough innovations will enable superior end-customer experiences, faster network deployment, better price performance, and reduced cost of ownership."
