5G Future Forum
We are a group of global 5G leaders accelerating the delivery of Multi-access Edge Computing-enabled solutions around the world.
Unlocking the full potential of 5G and Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC).
The mission of the 5G Future Forum (5GFF) is to develop 5G interoperability specifications to accelerate the delivery of 5G and MEC solutions around the world. The Forum’s members create the governance structure for the 5GFF and develop both technical and commercial work streams.

The “MEC experience management” technical specification
This document defines a set of intent-based APIs for functional exposure of edge and workload discovery with potential expansion to include future MEC functions and capabilities which are driven by network intelligence.
The “MEC Deployment” technical specification
This document defines the set of requirements to enable hyperscalers and service providers to deploy and integrate global MEC physical frameworks, including facilities (e.g. power and cooling), monitoring, operational considerations and security.
