What are the advantages of flattening in the development process of mobile communication system architecture

The flattening of the network architecture has always been a topic of great concern for mobile operators. The main purpose of flat architecture is to build a low-latency and low-cost network architecture, the traditional network of multiple node functions integrated into a node, so that a node wearing a number of jobs, through the distributed processing of all these homogeneous nodes connected together. In the traditional network, each centralized node once a failure occurs, the reach will be very wide, while in the flattened network, each flattened node function is similar, independent of each other, once a failure occurs, only affects its own coverage area of the user, so the stability of the entire network is better; secondly, thanks to the multiple distributed management, the flattened network nodes will be more intelligent, and thus the network scalability will be stronger; Finally, the flat architecture reduces the data transmission path and transmission delay, so that the user's business experience will be further enhanced.
