This strategy presents a cost-effective and scalable solution for service providers to roll out and manage their edge services. Recognising this need, TM Global, the wholesale business arm of Telekom Malaysia (TM), has set up edge facilities and strategically positioned nodes throughout Malaysia and the Asean region. This move effectively addresses the requirements of service providers seeking high-performance content delivery.
Moreover, TM Global’s Edge suite of solutions is designed to boost service providers’ ability to deliver an enhanced user experience. This is achieved by reducing latency, speeding up load times and ensuring high-quality streaming. With the backing of over 90 Content Delivery Network nodes, 32 subsea cable systems spanning more than 340,000 km worldwide with over 80 Tbps of capacity, and 29 points-of-presence globally, TM Edge Content Delivery services offer reliable, diverse, and continuous connectivity not just in the Asean region, but worldwide.
Furthermore, TM Global’s Edge Compute Platform (ECP) enables the rollout of distributed edge infrastructure that brings computation and data storage closer to end-users’ locations. This closer proximity drastically reduces latency, resulting in an overall better user experience.
For instance, the field of AR gaming, which is rapidly gaining traction, is emerging as one of the industries poised to benefit immensely from edge solutions. TM Global is primed to support developers and service providers in this fast expanding industry via its Edge Gaming service. This offering particularly caters to the demand for placing game data closer to players, ensuring low-latency experiences and setting up a complete and integrated edge gaming ecosystem. By leveraging TM Global’s Edge Facility and 5G technology, developers and providers are empowered to provide the much-coveted high-quality digital gaming experience with minimal latency.
