With the development of 5G technology, the distributed system architecture entirely changes from time division to space division, bringing ultra-low latency, enhanced scalability, improved reliability and becomes the basic infrastructure for real-time applications. This paper evaluates the effects of 5G technology on distinct distributed systems in various areas such as self-driving vehicles, smart cities, and smart industries. The study indicates that 5G enables the transmission of data in real-time and creates lasting end-to-end connections for the IoT of things, along with better reliability for important application systems. Moreover, the highlight of the sophisticated architectural en route to the current 5G realm, including edge computing and network slicing, also shows how distributed systems are flexible in utilizing 5G’s advantages. As much as 5G is seen to carry great potential, issues like high cost of deployment, security issues and problems within system integration require proper consideration to harness on 5G fully. On this, this research offers information about the role played by 5G on the future of the distributed systems and its relation to real-time systems.
