TELCO EDGE
Leverage the Edge
Changing customer demands present challenges and opportunities for Telcos and Service Providers. Implement edge-enabled content delivery solutions to monetize network investments and capture revenue in high-growth areas.
Service Differentiation for Telcos
Capture the Edge Opportunity
Data-rich content demands more from infrastructure. New digital experiences need better performance and bandwidth.
But at the same time, edge computing is creating new use cases for low-latency applications. Telcos are uniquely positioned to capitalize on these opportunities.
Using existing 5G and edge environments to move workloads closer to users, they can offer low-cost, low-latency delivery services to streaming, broadcasting and business.
Edge CDN Software
5G Ready
Varnish Enterprise is content delivery software that transforms digital platforms to unlock latency-free interactions at any scale.
Global telcos rely on Varnish to build powerful, cost-effective application acceleration services at the mobile edge and launch blazing fast next-gen experiences.
Varnish helps seize the edge opportunity:
- 1 Tbps+ throughput per node for massive concurrency
- < 1 ms edge responses for ultra low-latency delivery
- Edge compute for customized, optimized delivery
- Deploy anywhere, from the core network and network aggregation sites to cloud-native and MEC edge nodes
Benefits
In the hunt for revenue, margins and 5G monetization, Varnish helps CSPs unlock more than just high-quality content delivery.
Deliver Pioneering Service
Delight end-users and customers with seamless streaming, at massive scale, for lower cost.
Build Your Edge
Platform and location-agnostic edge caching software offers high throughput and low latency for all HTTP transactions.
New Revenue Opportunities
Offer edge services with a speed, scale and flexibility that stand alone.
Emerging Use Cases
Monetize 5G investments and support low latency applications.
Support Next-Gen Services
Prepare for Ultra Low Latency
Emerging use cases like cloud gaming, VR, AR and Industry 4.0 will need to go much lower than existing 300 to 500 ms response times.
Telcos choose Varnish Enterprise because moving workloads closer to users is critical. It's a complete solution for edge transformation: efficiently written software that delivers ultra-low latency and optimization for the next digital experience.

Pathways to Edge CDN Growth
The more data intensive digital services get, the more cost ineffective the cloud becomes. Varnish Enterprise enables a sustainable pathway to digital transformation:
Start with what you have. Use existing servers and rapidly roll out powerful content delivery services.
Expand cost-effectively with efficiency out-of-the-box to improve utilization and performance on existing networks.
Update and enhance with decoupled hardware and software. Prolong hardware cycles, use software that doesn't restrict growth, reduce CAPEX and energy usage.
Blaze a trail. Start with mature use cases like video, and easily introduce low-latency workloads as business cases build.
