Keywords:
Cloud-Edge Computing, Telecommunications Infrastructure, TANDEM Framework, Service Orchestration, Distributed Resource ManagementAbstract
Integrating cloud and edge computing architectures in telecommunications networks significantly advances service delivery and resource management. This article presents a comprehensive analysis of hybrid cloud-edge ecosystems through the lens of the TANDEM framework, examining its role in orchestrating distributed computing resources across telecommunications infrastructure. The article investigates the framework's capability to optimize service delivery through dynamic resource allocation, enhanced fault tolerance, and seamless integration between centralized cloud and decentralized edge environments. The article evaluates the implementation considerations for latency-sensitive applications, including autonomous vehicles and augmented reality services, while analyzing the performance metrics of this hybrid architecture. The findings demonstrate that the TANDEM-based approach significantly improves service continuity, resource utilization, and operational efficiency in telecommunications networks. The article contributes to the growing knowledge on distributed computing in telecommunications. It offers insights into the practical implementation of hybrid cloud-edge architectures and their impact on modern telecommunications service delivery.
