Open cooperative 5G experimentation platforms for the industrial sector NetApps
Suite5 was the provider of the NetApp “ML-supported Edge Analytics for Predictive Maintenance” which was tested in the Italian and Greek experimentation facilities, delivering insights regarding complex manufacturing issues and maintenance decision to a multinational white-goods industry and to an electric power company.
5G-INDUCE relied on the deployment of an open ETSI NFV compatible 5G orchestration platform for the deployment of advanced 5G NetApps. The project focused on the Industry 4.0 vertical sector, as one of the fastest growing and most impactful sectors in European economy with high potentials for service development SMEs and with the capability to tackle all diverse cases of service requirements. The platform was integrated over 3 5G Experimentation Facilities in Spain, Greece, and Italy, and extended with links towards specific Industries, for the showcasing of NetApps in real 5G environment. The platform’s unique features provided the capability to the NetApp developers to define and modify the application requirements while the underlay intelligent OSS could expose the network capabilities to the end users on the application level without revealing any infrastructure related information. This process enabled an application-oriented network management and optimization approach that was in line with the operator’s role as manager of its own facilities, while it offered the operational environment to any developers and service providers through which tailored made applications could be designed and deployed, for the benefit of vertical industries and without any indirect dependency through a cloud provider.
