The G2 on 5G Podcast - Standalone Episode 5 (Ep 89) Open RAN and vRAN with Intel’s Dan Rodriguez - a podcast by Anshel Sag and Will Townsend

In this standalone episode of the G2 on 5G, Anshel and Will speak with Dan Rodriguez, Intel's Corporate VP and GM of Intel’s Network Platform Group. We had an in-depth conversation with him about a multitude of 5G infrastructure topics.

We cover the following questions:

1. There is no doubt that the convergence of edge, cloud, AI, and 5G are going to be disruptive elements in the transformation of next generation networks. What should we expect to materialize over the next few years? A: Are there any significant projects looking at improvements in performance expected?

2. The hype cycle for vRAN and Open RAN has reached critical mass. It’s compelling from a capex, opex, and operator agility perspective, but integration will be key. What’s Intel’s take?

3. Intel recently made several announcements supporting vRAN that included hardware that is a first for Intel (SPR) – can you dive into those details?

4. What is Intel doing to differentiate itself, and what exciting developments do you see down the road?

5. Where do you see deployments happening in the network and at the edge?

6. Intel is a semiconductor giant and leader, but what is the company doing to support the software-defined networking developer community?
