Fleet vehicles have become mobile edge environments, and IT teams are now resposible for keeping them secure and operational. Applications inside the vehicles, including edge AI, video, telematics, and location services, have become operational dependencies. Connectivity, therefore, must be treated as critical infrastructure.
When connectivity drops, outages create blind spots that can undermine safety decisions and delay critical video uploads, while also leaving compliance records with gaps to be reconciled. Fleet data demands will continue to rise, especially upstream from vehicle to cloud. 5G is the solution positioned to meet that demand while still giving IT centralized control.
