Paragon, which is developed in-house, also significantly reduces the complexity and time needed to adopt 5G MEC and low latency applications and services. According to Singtel, this will lower the barriers to entry for enterprises, enabling faster deployment of use cases while removing considerable operational and cost overheads.
Without a platform like Paragon, enterprises currently have to use multiple tools to manage their network connectivity, cloud and application lifecycle at the edge.
“Many enterprises are undergoing rapid digitalisation while exploring and developing tailored 5G solutions for deployment in their industries. We understand the challenges and complexities that they face in managing the various networks, edge cloud applications and services with the required cyber security, resiliency and demanding service assurances required, cost-effectively. Paragon was conceived, developed and delivered to help enterprises meet these needs through a single platform,” says Bill Chang, CEO, group enterprise, at Singtel.
“We are pleased to already witness exciting and successful trials being conducted on Paragon and invite partners in 5G-related fields, from chipset manufacturers, Internet-of-Things devices, apps and software developers, content producers, systems integrators and solution providers, to join us, as we scale this platform regionally and globally with other telecommunication leaders to benefit customers in a 5G world,” he adds.
