A comment on AWS Private 5G.

I feel like this has come off the back of Amazon creating their own 5G for their warehouses and robots. Can any Amazon employees confirm this?

Can confirm there’s no internal use. It’s a fresh project to capitalize on 5g hype.

They’re working with a partner for hardware but redoing their software. So it’s a pretty low-touch white label job.

They have internal use planned but it was started explicitly for sale to external customers not internal.
