The Telco Edge Cloud (TEC) initiative was launched in the GSMA in March 2020 by 19 operators to design and develop a global edge computing service based on the federation of the edge infrastructures and platforms from a set of operators and edge service providers. Being open and inclusive, the TEC community within the GSMA has grown to include technology and platform providers, counting 24 members at the time of writing this edition of this whitepaper and has set the basis for the global service launch.
