MOBILISING MARKETS FOR A MOBILE WORLD

Capacity Russia & CIS 2019 brought together leading experts and decision-makers in the region, to discuss important factors in the development of communications, such as OTTs and the provision of digital services, 5G, IoT, cloud technology, new interconnections in the Far East of Russia as well as RCS and the messaging ecosystem.

The connectivity world of traffic and content delivery is evolving very rapidly and becoming more and more mobile, not least in Russia & CIS, where traffic flows through the region, from Tokyo to Frankfurt and from Europe to Asia.

According to the 2018 World Bank report, “Russia has one of the highest rates of mobile phone penetration in the world (153 active subscriptions per 100 inhabitants)” It also claimed that “Russia is one of the world’s leaders in the affordability of fixed broadband”.

Dataxis conducted research showing that Central and Eastern Europe accounted for 69%, or 37 million FTTx RUSSIA (FTTH/B) subscribers, and Russia accounted for almost 68% 68%, or 24 million, of those in CEE in 2016. or 24 million FTTx Furthermore, whilst many operators are partnering with infrastructure vendors to ready their networks for 5G deployment, there is a dividing opinion over whether regulators will enforce a consortium between 5G network providers. As mentioned in the session ‘Assessing the Progress of IoT and Smart City Initiatives in Moscow and Beyond’, IoT applications will support the Moscow Government Smart City initiative and e-governance projects, amongst others.

Frost & Sullivan analysis referred to in Andrey Grishin’s presentation on behalf of Ericsson explained the projected smart city value proposition by segments CEE for 2025 and CIS & Eastern Europe were cited as a region of significant market growth, especially in smart 69% transportation. or 37 million FTTx

We asked industry leaders the question... WHAT TECHNOLOGY WILL BE THE BIGGEST DISRUPTOR IN WHOLESALE TELECOMS IN THE NEXT FIVE YEARS?

Key factors influencing telecom business in Russia are Russian laws regulating carriers’ operations that are currently in force or under consideration. This includes Yarovaya’s law obligating carriers to provide long term storage of data and the draft law on autonomy of Russian internet, which will affect the areas of traffic control and routing. These initiatives will determine development of carriers’ business in Russia for the next several years.

Andrey Perekrest, Data Centre Manager, LINXDATACENTER

Wholesale telecoms is probably the toughest market to disrupt. The centre of innovations is shifting to cloud and content providers’ networks.

Konstantin Chumachenko, CEO, NGENIX

I think Cloud will change the approach in the wholesale. It will be possible to offer complete solution instead of one service at a time.

Paolo Ficini, CEO, SPARKLE TURKEY & GREECE

We think the biggest disruptor in wholesale is CDN technology and service. We now see already quite considerable traffic growth rate reduction and expect this effect to become even bigger in the next several years.

Sergey Yakovlev, Carrier Business Director, TTK

Chinese companies account for nine of the top 20 internet companies in the world, while American companies account for 11 and the top two Chinese companies on the list are Alibaba and Tencent, ranked at sixth and seventh, respectively. In five years’ time, with 5G or even higher technology in place… we will need more processing power, storage, transport network to support such growth… My personal prediction on data centres, dark fibre, security will all benefit from this growth, but data centres will have to invest more into the secondary markets for niche market penetration and dark fibre to support data centre growth. More backward markets will catch up, increasing the demands on submarine fibre cable systems for massive data transfer… Telecoms operators will need to accept the fact that as the market becomes more mobile, they will need to change their business to support mobile infrastructure with the infrastructure they already have. When 5G hits the market, massive data transfer from end consumers will be a key issue. Imagine the exponential growth in mass markets like China, India, Indonesia, where more people are on 3G and 4G network; bandwidth demand will grow by multiple times. This level of traffic must be localized to support such demand.

The connectivity world of traffic and content delivery is evolving very rapidly and becoming more and more mobile, with developments in mobile gaming and streaming.

Revenues from A2P SMS are still rising and combined with RCS, MobileSquared predicts that A2P and RCS revenues will reach $41.4 billion USD by 2023.

MVNOs currently have a 2.6% share in the Russian mobile market by subscribers, which is expected to grow to 14-15% by 2022.

In a world of diversified services in all industries, many banks and even a football team have launched MVNOs, as part of their customer service offering, providing a huge opportunity for telecoms companies to capitalise on this. RUSSIA & CIS 2019 2 & 3 April, Moscow
