Verizon has announced that developers in Boston and the Bay Area can now access their 5G mobile edge compute service. The program utilizes Amazon’s AWS Wavelength and Verizon’s 5G Edge to enable applications with ultra-low latencies, and support developers working projects for which 5G may be a gamechanger like autonomous industrial equipment, connected cars, smart cities and smart factories, and more.
In addition to the initial launch in Boston and the Bay Area, Verizon has committed to launching 5G Edge in more cities by the end of the year.
