Edge Computing & MEC for Public Services
5 Days
Course Overview
Edge Computing and Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) are transforming how public services, government applications, and telecom networks deliver low-latency, high-reliability, and location-aware services. By processing data closer to users and devices, edge platforms enable real-time analytics, emergency response, smart cities, connected transport, healthcare, and critical infrastructure monitoring. This course provides a comprehensive introduction to edge computing and MEC concepts, architectures, deployment models, and governance considerations from a public sector and telecom perspective. Participants will learn how to plan, deploy, secure, and operate edge platforms and assess their suitability for mission-critical public services, supported by scenario-based labs and policy-aligned use cases.
