The cumulative amount of patent infringement cases involving Wangsu Technology and Baishan Cloud Technology has reached0.41 billion yuan, which is not a small amount for both sides, and the essence behind the patent war is even moreCDNFierce market competition in the industry.CDN is the content delivery network, which is used to reduce network congestion and improve the corresponding speed and hit rate of user access. It is vividly called "network accelerator",YesEssential infrastructure for the 5G era. With 5G,The scale of artificial intelligence and Internet of Things applications is increasing, and the domesticDemand for CDN services will increase dramatically,CDN industry will also get more development opportunities. Netscape Technology and Baishan Cloud Technology as CDN, especiallyEdge fieldThe final outcome of the patent wars between them may have an impact on the market landscape.
