 Welcome to the SiliconANGLE news update, Mobile World Congress, theCUBE covers live on the floor for four days. I'm John Furrier in the studio here, Dave O'Lothi, Lisa Martin on site. Intel in the news, Intel accelerates 5G network virtualization with radio access network boost for Xeon processors. Intel, well known for power and computing. They today announced their integrated virtual radio access network into its latest fourth gen Intel Xeon system on a chip. This move will help network operators gear up their efforts to deliver cloud native features for next generation 5G core and edge networks. This announcement came today at MWC, formerly known as Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. Intel is taking the latest step in its mission to virtualize the world's networks, including core, open ran and edge. Network virtualization is the key capability for communication service providers as they migrate from fixed function hardware to programmable, software defined platforms. This provides greater agility and greater cost efficiency. According to Intel, this is the demand for agile high performance scalable networks requiring adoption fully virtualized software based platforms run on general purpose processors. Intel believes that network operators need to accelerate network virtualization to get the most out of these new architectures and that's where it can be made its mark with Intel VRan boost. It delivers twice the capability and capacity gains over its previous generation of silicon with the same power envelope with 20% in power savings that results from an integrated acceleration. In addition, Intel announced new infrastructure power manager for 5G core reference software that's designed to work with VRan boost. Intel also showcases new Intel Converged Edge media platform designed to deliver multiple video services from a shared multi-tenant architecture. The platform leverages cloud native scalability to respond to the shifting demands. Lastly, Intel announced a range of Agilex 7 field programmable gate arrays and EASIC N5X structured application specific integrated circuits designed for individual cloud communications and embedded applications. Intel is targeting the power consumption which is energy and more horsepower for chips which is going to power the industrial internet edge that's going to be cloud native.
