The fifth generation of wireless networks (5G) will kick off with evolved mobile broadband services as promised by several mobile-related associations, researchers, and operators. Compared to 4G, 5G aims to provide greater data rates with lower latency and higher coverage to numerous users who stream ubiquitous multimedia services. 5G benefits the innovation of internet of things (IoT) as well. To this end, several modifications in the network architecture are required. This chapter is discussing the role of cloud computing centers in 5G networks, and how such integration could be implemented as found in the literature. The benefits of cloud/5G integration will be explained as well. In addition, some challenges related to the integration will be demonstrated.

Broadband infrastructure is widely viewed as a major development driver. In addition, access to broadband networks is considered by many as a common service to be offered to all. This chapter presents interesting national strategies as well as practices and initiatives of municipalities for to broadband and next generation access networks. It, also, presents five scenarios for business models showing the way in which public agencies and the private sector may work together to offer fibre-to-the-home. Finally, it presents a case study of a Greek inter-municipal company emphasizing to the operating environment, the technical and economic factors, the results of financial analysis, and the assessment of sustainability.
