Demonstration With Robot Highlights the Ability for Orange’s 5G
Network to Automatically Create Dedicated Network Slices for
Latency-Sensitive Business Applications
Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) today announced an innovative
technical demonstration of automated 5G network slice orchestration
conducted with Orange and Casa Systems (CASA). Creatively
illustrated using a kit robot, the demo highlights the expanding
use cases and service agility needed to support 5G business
applications, including location-based, telemetry, IoT, edge
computing and more that will require low-latency for both the
uplink and downlink.
In collaboration with HPE and Casa Systems, Orange demonstrated
the ability for a cloud-native 5G core network to recognize
quality-of-service (QoS) degradations on a common network slice for
a mission-critical service or application with specific service
level agreement (SLA) parameters and automatically self-correct by
creating a new dedicated network slice on-demand.
“Our robot demo underscores how a cloud-native, software-defined
5G network will support latency-sensitive business use cases with
automatic detection and migration to a dedicated network slice to
meet the strictest SLAs for mission-critical applications,” said
Emmanuel Bidet, VP, Convergent Networks Control, Orange. “This is a
new step forward marking the emergence of the real-time enterprise
as companies now expect to use data as soon as it is produced from
sensors, cameras, robots and other devices and services to power
digital transformation strategies. We are proud to have achieved
this project with HPE and Casa Systems, two leading companies in
the open 5G solutions market.”
In the demo, a robot is fitted with a 5G radio and connected to
the robot’s management software over an open 5G core network,
comprising cloud-native Network Functions from both HPE and Casa
Systems. HPE’s Service Director orchestration software creates,
configures and deploys network slices for the robot’s service to
connect at low latency. The demo shows the service set up and the
robot operating normally until additional data traffic and latency
are introduced and the robot’s performance is visibly impacted.
This triggers an alarm and Service Director works with the 5G core
network within seconds to create and deploy a new dedicated network
slice with the proper QoS restoring the robot to normal
operation.
“This demonstration with Orange and Casa underscores our ability
to automate and orchestrate the complete lifecycle of 5G services
in cloud-native, multi-vendor environments,” said Domenico
Convertino, Vice President Product Management, Communications &
Media Solutions, HPE. “An open 5G Core is key for operators to
break out of the single vendor lock-in of previous generation
networks. The HPE 5G Core Stack, as well as our newly announced HPE
5G Lab, enable an accelerated evolution to 5G networking that is
open and interoperable.”
“Our cloud-native 5G core network functions powered by our
Axyom™ software platform is designed to enable a next-generation of
mobile networks that are more flexible, scalable and automated with
the high performance and low latency to support a variety of
consumer and business devices, services and use cases,” said Jerry
Guo, CEO, Casa Systems. “More importantly, this demo underscores
the ability of major operators to build 5G networks using
best-of-breed solutions from multiple vendors that are tailored to
their specific needs instead of being locked in to legacy
infrastructures and network migrations.”
Orange, HPE and Casa are now expanding this use case
demonstration into an end-to-end campus trial as the next steps
toward broader service availability.
