The volume of cellular data serviced by the cloud will grow from 700,000 PB in 2024 to 2.8 million PB in 2028 as operators deploy cloud infrastructure to improve network efficiency, according to Juniper Research.
Juniper Research says the expansion in cloud infrastructure will enable dynamic resource provisioning to increase the reliability of 5G operator network services. This will redistribute network resources to areas under strain, preventing network congestion.
Juniper Research calls this “dynamic resource provisioning,” the process of distributing telecommunications network resources in near-real-time.
The increase in cellular data signifies the transition to cloud-based 5G networks, which is key to dynamic resource provisioning, allowing operators to easily reallocate computing resources for network functions.

The report urges operators to integrate automated dynamic resource provisioning with other forms of network automation and resource management to ensure a unified approach.
“This will be critical to maximising network efficiency and performance, as it prevents a chaotic collection of network resource management strategies and software,” Juniper Research says.
“To charge a premium, operators must couple increased reliability with improved latency and throughput, providing prioritised network slices to connections where possible,” comments Juniper Research author Alex Webb.
