Effective Data Management Is Essential for Taming the 5G Network Complexity Beast
This IDC white paper examines how 5G standalone networks, edge computing, IoT, cloud-native network functions, and network slicing are increasing operational and data-management complexity for communications service providers. Legacy systems and siloed relational databases were not designed for the volume, variety, velocity, automation, and millisecond responsiveness required by modern networks. IDC argues that effective 5G operations need dependable, adaptable, flexible, scalable, and highly available data infrastructure capable of supporting AI/ML-driven automation and real-time customer experiences. MongoDB’s developer data platform combines a flexible document model with horizontal scalability, search, queryable encryption, device synchronization, time-series capabilities, data lake ac
