Private Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) enhances security, reduces latency, and enables advanced applications by processing data closer to its source. Unlike traditional cloud computing, MEC minimizes backhaul traffic, improving efficiency and reducing costs. Public MEC operates at the edge of public cellular networks, offering broad coverage for applications like connected vehicles or live events. Private MEC, deployed on-premises with a dedicated 5G/LTE network, provides full control, enhanced security, and ultra-low latency for critical applications like AI-driven logistics, robotics, and predictive maintenance. A hybrid approach can optimize both security and network performance by dynamically distributing workloads between public and private MEC environments.
