BT’s view on research networking Bruno Tideman Agenda • BT’s organization / capabilities • Current research networks • Market developments – Building blocks • Summary Organization BT Group plc BT Wholesale BT Ignite Network operations Europe multi site corporate s BT Openworld BT Exact Technologies UK consumer ISP R& D BT Retail UK Consumers, SME Our Global Capabilities Global reach through BT-owned infrastructure and partnerships with local/regional telcos Delivering service to 400+ cities in more than 100 countries Pan-European Fibre Network Ring topology with multiple redundant connections Core backbone running at speeds up to 10 Gbit/s Over 200,000 customers connected GigaPort Research Network • Semi collapsed backbone in Amsterdam 80Gbs (darkfibers) • 29 DWDM 10Gbs lambda’s (darkfiber local loops) • 14 managed darkfibers LEANet WAN Research Network Birmingham Norwic h IC C Microsoft Hyatt Hotel Cambridge Uni Cambridge Science Park CAMBRIDGE HIGH TECHNOLOGY CORRIDOR IPSWICH Colchester US, AT&T Essex Uni BT Tower BT Centre UCL Adastral Park NIC Angel Centre Global Switch Europe & Farland Network Market developments Commercial vs. Research • QoS • Bandwidth • Price • Availability • Services Building blocks • IPv6 • Managed wavelengths • Optical CPE • Global GRID Other developments • Business model for research infrastructure, product development and early adopter phases. • Merging the wider research community with commercial production research networks • Building high-capacity, scalable data centric networks that are low cost… – Simplifying the network architecture – Lowering equipment costs – Lowering operational costs …and flexible to offer new service opportunities IP-Optical Internetworking The simplification of Data Networking NEW OLD IP OPTICAL INTERNETWORKING ATM SONET/SDH IP SONET/SDH High-Speed Optical Network IP++ ?? IP++ All Optical Networking ?? Summary • NGI / Global GRID is an emerging market of commercial significance and is still in early definition and research stages. • Operators should be able to make a profit to create a stable industry. • Research community can benefit from Optical IP Networking by partnering with operators and vise versa. “Telegraph charged for WORDS, Voice charges by the MINUTE, Data charges for BITS, Global GRID will charge for CYCLES”.
