Most Common Mentioned Sectors to Leverage New Technolcgies
Yes, my name is Sean, I am a data analyst at SaskTel and it is a privilege to speak with you tonight, I have learned a great deal through presenting to groups around the province, and I am fortunate to be presenting to you tonight.
This presentation is different from any other that I have done. Typically, I look at work completed, a look at how we run our business, but I want to talk about what we will be building. There is more benefit in talking about where we are going than telling you where we have been.
There was an idea that came up a while ago to talk about the evolution of our network. This group is passionate about data and solving problems and I believe this topic is perfect for this group. SOOO, you are the unlucky ones that I will be trying this out.
One of my favourite topics is seeing how technology can help.
When I decided to present on a network , topic, What is the connection between data and our networks? It turns out its everywhere.
Today, every single one of us used a network to solve a data problem. We queried a database, collaborated over a version control site, pulled data from a webs service, transferred data from one location to another, published our results on a website, or perhaps just researched or watched a video on a new skill to solve a complex problem. Networks are fundamental to daily life, and have become integrated in analytic process.
If you work in I am wager that today alone, every single one of us used a network to solve a data problem. We queried a database, collaborated over a version control site, pulled data from a webs service, transferred data from one location to another, published our results on a website, or perhaps just researched or watched a video on a new skill to solve a complex problem. Networks are fundamental to daily life, and have become integrated in analytics process.
Data for Good and other groups around the province are the right groups of people to hear this message. We can bring in network experts and subject matter expert’s on different technologies that will be crucial on these topics. I am lucky that I get to see these changes first hand There is an innovation shift on our networks that will change the structure of our networks forever. The data possibilities due to network technologies. I am very lucky to be able to see how the changes are being made, have a front row seat to see the technology and innovation on the network side. As I learned more It feels like we are about to go through massive shift on the data possibilities due to network technologies.
WE are still in the early stages transformations of it but have started to work much closer with customers around Saskatchewan
We are here for the people of Saskatchewan and to help you solve your issues. This group is full of talented, creative passionate people, its our responsibility to work with you, let you know what the network
Though moderate in the next five years, new value creation abounds, but the jury is still out who captures what parts of the bigger emerging 5G edge and network slicing ecosystem, according to the ABI analyst assessment.
“Aspects like Tiny Machine Learning (TinyML), private cellular networks, Open Radio Access Network (RAN), blockchain, smart manufacturing platforms, and even connected cows point to how technology advancements are allowing our physical world to be better connected, managed, and efficient,” said Stuart Carlaw, chief research officer at ABI Research.
4th Industrial Revolution
Digital, physical and biological world connect
Along with other technologies such as AI and machine learning, blockchain, fintech, smart manufacturing, and IoT, 5G is seen as crucial to the Fourth Industrial Revolution or Second Digital Revolution, in which adoption of new technologies drives automation in manufacturing and industrial practices more broadly.
The Core Network - is the mobile exchange and data network that manages all of the mobile voice, data and internet connections. For 5G, the ‘core network’ is being redesigned to better integrate with the internet and cloud based services and also includes distributed servers across the network improving response times (reducing latency)
Many of the advanced features of 5G including network function virtualization and network slicing for different applications and services, will be managed in the core.

“Virtualize the network”
Network Function Virtualization (NVF) - is the ability to create a network functions in real time at any location within the operator’s cloud platform.
Mobile Compute Edge- Distributed Computing
Functions that used to run on dedicated hardware for example a firewall and encryption at business premises can now operate on software on a virtual machine. NVF is crucial to enable the speed efficiency and agility to support new business applications and is an important technology for a 5G ready core

Cloud-native computing takes advantage of many modern techniques, including multicloud, microservices, agile methodology, containers, vms and devops
Treat your Network Functions like Applications
New business opportunities made possible, host, network and IT services, using large server deployments
With NFV we can offer network services on demand. If we want add a firewall on your slice of the network it would take us to deploy an image as opposed of provisioning new hardware, then connecting a dedicated application to our systems.
NFV Consumption growth due to IOT and 5G
There are a new evolution of network services that can now be instantly added to you your service
NFV Consumption growth due to IOT and 5G
Better business models, consumption based growth, not a one size fits all
Reduced Costs and Cloud Providers getting into this space, you will see much modre startups getting into this space
Traditional Deployments of network devices allowed for data to be send independently
This gives you bandwidth on demand
-Monitor traffic and provisional a certain traffic at certain time
We are seeing factorial increases in Traffic when traffic moves this much solutions become more necessary
Add more benefits for SDN as well as how it works add one or two more slides
The SDN Controller provides a central point of control to distribute security and provisioning enterprise. SDN can effectively be used to manage security throughout the enterprise if it is implemented securely and properly.
Reduce Costs by leveraging equipment more efficiently
Being able to direct and automate data traffic makes it easier to implement quality of services (QoS)
5G brings three new aspects to the table: bigger channels (to speed up data), lower latency (to be more responsive), and the ability to connect a lot more devices at once (for sensors and smart devices).
In the last year dozens of 5G labs have been created. Everyone is trying to find that killer app, the application or use case to leverage the power of 5G. Lets find out why
The infrastructure will be new, but what will be key will be the spectrum,
When it comes to 5G, the low-band spectrum allows operators to provide wide coverage, even in rural locations. Also, the speed and latency of the network will be noticeably better than 4G, with expected peak speeds around 300Mbps.
Moving up to mid-band spectrum, we expect most carriers will opt to skip low-band 5G and go straight for mid band. Mid-band spectrum refers to frequencies between 1GHz and 6GHz.
The mid-band spectrum is considered to be ideal for 5G as it can carry lots of data across significant distances. Data speeds are significantly higher than the low-band spectrum, with speeds expecting to peak between 600-900Mbps.
The top of the spectrum chart, high band millimetre wave refers to 6GHz frequencies and higher. It offers super-fast speeds with peak speeds estimated at 1-3Gbps at the moment.
Latency will shrink from about 50 milliseconds (about half the time it takes a person to blink) to one millisecond for critical applications. This is essential to the seamless work of automated systems.
Its said that 5G will make onboard storage irrelevant,
The future of autonomous and interconnected devices operating cars, homes, factories and cities requires 5G, say experts
1-millisecond latency
Up to 100x number of connected devices per unit area (compared with 4G LTE)
5G is the beginning of the promotion of digitalization from personal entertainment to society interconnection. A number of traditional industries, such as automotive, healthcare, energy, and municipal systems participate in the construction of this ecosystem.
Sensors in
Moreover, the haptic feedback enabled by various sensors located on the surgical equipment is also needed in remote surgery such that the surgeons can feel what the robotic arms are touching for precise decision making. Among these three types of traffic, it is haptic feedback that requires the tightest delay requirement with the end-to-end RTTs lower than 1 ms. In terms of reliability, rare failures can be tolerated in remote surgical consultations, while the remote surgery demands an extremely reliable system (BLER down to 10-9) because any noticeable error can lead to catastrophic outcomes.
This reduction could unlock another concept, the Internet of Skills (IoS). This is the process by which specialists conduct their work remotely through virtual reality headsets.
Cars will navigate the roads and talk to each other over 5G. A future of augmented and virtual reality delivered through mobile devices will be built on 5G, too. Sophisticated wearable health devices will monitor signals and communicate with doctors in real time and the capacity for remote and precision surgery will soar.
So how does this new network technology help with data and data analytics.
Think of the problem this way: what can you do with unlimited sensors, storage and compute have no consequence, scale won’t impact process and AI can be trained and run a fraction what they can now. The boundaries of devices and processing will be removed. Our network will allow you to innovate in new ways never thought possible.
There is extensive research and use cases on this topic
The majority of the research within the data world on the network incubators centers around aggregating these subjects.
They all assume large scale utilizations, company wide or even wider distributions
Many of the Research network problems are centred around security and data privacy, at scale this becomes a complicated problem
There will be continually more and more regulations, over the last couple of years society is realizing the potential dangers of data. Stealing identities, directed ads, phycological manipulation and propaganda are all visible out there.
The collection and dissemination of data is becoming more and more difficult to necessary regulations.
We at SaskTel like many others are restricted to the data we can collect, view and distribute.
There has been many times through work ,or through personal projects that I have run into a difficulties working data due to privacy concerns with both sending and receiving data.
Yet still, there is this unrelenting drive to utilize data to its maximum potential.
We are starting to see methods of utilizing data through robust network technologies to solve these issues.
I am an optimist and I have seen amazing some amazing technologies
Traditionally Machine Learning has been a centra process.
Traditionally ML
Traditionally Machine Learning has been a centra process.
The goal is to design a machine learning framework that meets data privacy, security and regulatory requirements so that artificial intelligence systems can leverage the use of their data more efficiently and accurately.
Data acquisition at a societal scale
Despite their effectiveness, legacy data acquisition models backed with centralized Machine Learning models entail security and privacy concerns, and lead to less participation in large-scale sensing and data provision for smart city services.
Offload Compute to MEC or to local device
Traditionally Machine Learning has been a centra process.
Blockchains invented to timestamp digital documents
Blockchains, are prevalent in the new network technology. A blockchain is a decentralized protocol layer with robust security. They are used as a medium for tracking payments, data records, passwords. Literally any type of data.
There have been several chains set up to monitor data governance and quality and send it securely as well.
There are multiple uses cases for blockchain, on the data side and they don’t seem to get much attention.
By using a decentralized blockchain, we can protect these identities through the use of asymmetric cryptography and secure hashing algorithms. Devices would be registered according to their own corresponding blockchain addresses, guaranteeing their identity. This blockchain layer can provide a level of security and frictionless identification unmatched by the existing centralized infrastructure.
Some believe that in the future all data will travel through the blockchain as 5G coverage increases and smarter applications are built that require complex and huge amounts amid data at high speeds, there is also going to be increased danger of stealing data
One of the problems with theses chains, many have grown so large, and complicated they are having problems with scaling. Many of the larger chains take considerable time to authenticate and validate transactions. Think of paying for something then waiting several hours for it to clear.
As a remedy additional layers were added to added functionality that wasn’t present on the chain. Payments is the best example.
Every device will need to have its own address and on-chain transactions, there will need to be an on-chain capacity that reaches tens of thousands of transactions per second. In short, scalability must improve significantly on both layers.
On the back end, 5G and blockchain offer the promise of a potent combination,” he said. Blockchain can secure mobile banking networks that “will have to secure transactions on a very granular level,” while 5G will make sure these complex networks don’t strain under the weight of blockchains.
Sensors will be everywhere, they watch and monitor all. They networks previously would buckle under this weight. Now new network Technologies will allow IOT to provides sensor data at much larger scale
Analysts have been anticipating the implications of the Internet of Things (IoT) for several years. However, there have been two main impediments to its success: capacity and security.
Computer Vision with Augmented Reality
Through the network technology such as low latency, edge compute, and the centralization of computing wearables will become common, and visualities and info will be display in new ways.
Whether its for comerical day to day life
We are small province, but we can use that to our advantage, by solving local issues and collaborate to leverage new technologies to solve business critical initiatives
