Cloud Infrastructure (CI) hardware type for different edge deployments:
Cloud Infrastructure (CI) - Commodity/Standard: COTS, standard hardware designs and form factors. Deployed only in Controlled environments. Reduced operational complexity.
Cloud Infrastructure (CI) - Custom/Specialised: non-standard hardware designs including specialised components, ruggetised for harsh environments and different form factors. Deployed in Controlled and/or Exposed environments. Operationally complex environment.
Cloud Infrastructure (CI) hardware specifications for different edge deployments:
Cloud Infrastructure (CI) - CNTT Basic: General Purpose CPU; Standard Design.
Cloud Infrastructure (CI) - CNTT Network Intensive: CNTT Basic + high speed user plane (low latency, high throughput); Standard Design.
Cloud Infrastructure (CI) - CNTT Network Intensive+ : CNTT Network Intensive + optional hardware acceleration (compared with software acceleration can result in lower power use and smaller physical size); possible Custom Design.
Cloud Infrastructure (CI) - CNTT Network Intensive++ : CNTT Network Intensive + required hardware acceleration; Custom Design.
