Mobile Edge Computing(MEC)은 무선 기지국에 분산 클라우드 컴퓨팅 기술을 적용하여 다양한 서비스와 캐싱 콘텐츠를 이용자 단말에 가까이 전개함으로써 모바일 코어망의 혼잡을 완화하고, 새로운 로컬 서비스를 창출하는 기술이다. 현재는 European Telecommunications Standards Institute(ETSI)주도로 규격 작업이 진행되고 있으며, 동시에 산업계에서는 LTE 모바일 네트워크에 적용하는 시도들이 이루어지고 있다. 그러나 MEC기술은 Software Defined Network(SDN)/Network Functions Virtualization(NFV) 기술들과 함께 향후 2020년대에 도입될 5G 네트워크의 주요 구성 기술로서 부상하고 있다. 본고에서는 MEC의 개념과 다양한 서비스 시나리오, MEC 플랫폼 구조 및 기술동향 등을 살펴보고, 5G에서의 역할과 앞으로 도전하여야 할 기술적인 과제들에 대하여 분석한다.
