Networks in the Software Software Age Defined Clouds and Internet Ravinder Shergill of Things Principal Architect Technology Strategy, TELUS June 06, 2016 TELUS RESTRICTED

Storyboard Generational changes via Software Defined Infrastructures: o Long Term Topology COs vs. DCs o Copper vs. Fiber o Telephony vs. Video o Narrowband vs. Broadband o TDM leased lines vs. Ethernet and IP o o Shift to Software and Virtualization Hardware vs. Software o Addresses vs. Identity o Appliances vs. VNFs o Pipes vs Apps o

Emerging Digital Network Architecture requirements Higher Speeds, Lower Latency, Secure Licenced vs Un-licenced Connection Spectrum (Small Cells, WiFi) Virtual Reality will 4K video will require 25- require 1Gbit/s (5G) 30Mbit/s (FTTH/GPON) Data Center is becoming part Data and Analytics are of the Wide Area Network becoming the currency of the 21 st century… (PODs, NiaB) TELUS RESTRICTED

Open Programmable Networks Networks are Complex, Closed, Rigid and Proprietary. SDN is designed to make them Open and Intelligent with Centralised Control for Automation. We need to Re-Imagine the Network with Gigabit Access Speeds, Ultra Low Services Latency and Clean/Secure Pipes. TELUS Confidential | 4

Placing wheels on ideas… In the “Sharing economy” the concept of ownership is becoming obsolete… Emerging Applications and customer expectations will dictate network resources on demand… If the network fails, so do M2M, IOT, ICE, Smart City and the Health Applications. TELUS Confidential | 5
