RAN Virtualization and Mobile Edge Compute are two of the many capabilities 5G purports to provide. However, both these capabilities rely on virtualization of the infrastructure. To address VRAN and MEC requirements how will the virtualization models need to evolve? Will OpenStack, today’s IaaS platform be able to address all the requirements of MEC and VRAN?
