We are standing on the eve of the 5G era… 5G, as a monumental shift in cellular communication technology, holds tremendous potential for spurring innovations across many vertical industries, with its promised multi-Gbps speed, sub-10 ms low latency, and massive connectivity. The first 5G networks are now deployed and operational.

Storage mount points in a system might be larger or smaller, local or remote, with high or low latency, and various speeds. Storage and network transfer of files is a measurable cost. For example: All subfolders of the /opt directory are mounted as local, low latency, high-throughput drives, with relatively low storage capacity.
