A new 5G experience center in Atlanta invites clients across industries to
experience the true business value of 5G technology
TEANECK,
N.J., Oct. 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/
-- Cognizant is expanding its collaboration with Qualcomm
Technologies, Inc., to accelerate enterprise digital transformation
through a new 5G experience center in Atlanta, Ga. The collaboration combines
Cognizant's deep experience in 5G, IoT, cloud and data analytics
with Qualcomm Technologies' intelligent edge devices, AI and 5G
connectivity solutions.
Building upon the improvements that 4G made to the consumer
mobile experience, 5G was conceived with enterprises in mind,
enabling and accelerating broad digital transformation journeys
across industries. Private 5G networks make possible
next-generation services, such as autonomous driving, robotic
automation, synthetic biology, virtual reality and smart
manufacturing in an ultra-reliable, low-latency, secure and
scalable way.
"Qualcomm Technologies is a pioneer in advancing 5G power to the
intelligent edge, and we're proud to collaborate with them in this
critical space," said Vibha Rustagi,
global head of IoT at Cognizant. "By aligning their expertise with
Cognizant's unique industry solutions in manufacturing, automotive,
biopharma, retail and others, we will strive to help clients
simplify the complexities of the technology, accelerate their
digital transformations and stay focused on their business
objectives."
Cognizant is expanding our 5G experience center footprint
globally with the Atlanta location
being the first of our planned 5G centers in North America. It builds on the success of
Cognizant's 5G center in Bangalore,
India. The center is designed to help clients imagine, test
and deploy next-generation solutions by pairing private 5G networks
and Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) technologies to deliver
unique advantages.
The combination of 5G and MEC offers enterprises the ability to
create multiple virtual networks with the same physical hardware
and support thousands of connected devices generating data insights
in real time, with better network security and less congestion –
all of which leads to better business outcomes and more seamless
end-user experiences.
The center will open with several use cases ready for clients to
explore, including:
- Manufacturing: 5G-connected cameras with video
analytics leveraging MEC infrastructure can help clients
dramatically accelerate anomaly detection in manufacturing lines,
allowing for rapid intervention and issue resolution to maximize
production yields and minimize down time.
- Supply chain management: Autonomous mobile robots,
controlled, operated and integrated via 5G into warehouse
management, fleet management and enterprise resource planning
systems can allow for more predictable and consistent supply of
components in manufacturing, more efficient inventory control and
significantly lower risk of workplace injuries.
"Qualcomm Technologies is at the forefront of accelerating
digital transformation to solve complex business problems with
differentiated end-to-end solutions," said Savi Soin, Senior Vice President, Business
Development and Partnerships at Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. "The
enterprise transformation journey starts with the 5G experience
center, and we are excited to collaborate with Cognizant to offer
enterprise customers solutions based on our technology roadmap and
scale to meet their business goals."
Over time, the 5G Experience Center for Digital Transformation
will showcase additional solutions – pre-developed, and
custom-created with clients – geared towards solving specific
business challenges and helping clients deliver experiences that
meet their stakeholders' evolving expectations.
