Evolution of Asia Pacific Subsea Cable Capacity a Golden Age for APAN's R&E Community Evolution of Asia Pacific subsea cable capacity A golden age for APAN’s R&E community Yves Poppe BBC meeting (BackBone Committee) APAN 47 February 18th-22 2018, Daejon, Rep of Korea AARnet co-owner on the Indigo and JGA cables! REANNZ anchor tenant on Hawaiki • The Indigo cable will run from Perth to Singapore and the JGA cable will connect Japan, Guam and Australia (Sydney). • The Indigo consortium comprises Google, Singtel, Telstra, Indonesia’s Indosat Ooredoo, Superloop and AARNet. It will be supplied by Nokia’s Alcatel Submarine Networks (ASN), RFS: mid 2019 • Each of the two fibre pairs will have a capacity of 18Tbps, with future increases possible. AARnet’s spectrum ownership will give it a staggering potential of 3Tbps between Australia and Singapore!! • The JGA partners include Google, AARnet and RTI-C, will be supplied by Alcatel and NEC, 36Tbps capacity, RFS Q4 2019 • REANNZ has a 25-year anchor tenancy on Hawaiki on behalf of the New Zealand government. Two APAN members own Terabits worth of subsea cable capacity, awesome, congratulations! Other key APAN members should follow their lead! Pg 2 Consortium confirms completion of Indigo AARNet, Google, Indosat, Ooredoo, Singtel, SubPartners and Telstra have confirmed the completion of the Indigo West and Central subsea cable systems. The consortium confirms that the commissioning period has now begun and on-track for its ready for service date of mid-2019. “This is an exciting time for AARNet, added Chris Hancock, CEO of AARNet. “Indigo is the first in a number of significant investments for research and education in Australia. Indigo will provide the underpinning critical infrastructure to meet the future growth in collaborative research and transnational education between Australia and our important Asian partners.” Once live, the 36Tbps, 4,600km system will boost connections between Australia and Southeast Asia delivering lower latency and increased reliability on its two fibre-pairs. Reported by Capacity media january 25th 2019 Telstra, PCCW, Singtel on a subsea fibre diet 1. Telstra 1. 25% stake in Southern Cross (SCNN) ; includes Southern Cross Next 2. Half fibre in Indigo (Perth - Singapore) RFS mid 2019 3. Half fibre in HKA (HK-USA) RFS 2020 4. 6Tbps in PLCN RFS 2020 5. Bought added capacity on NCP and considers ‘further investment’ on FASTER 2.

Partner in Southern Cross Next The rise of international 100Gbps in APAN • January 2014: 100Gbps challenge by Yves Poppe at APAN37 in Bandung, Indonesia: Connect Asia to America at 100GBps in time for SC14 in New Orleans in november. • SC14 New Orleans: A*STAR and SingAREN demonstrate 100Gbps connectivity and applications between Singapore and New Orleans. • September 2015: first operational transpacific 100Gbps R&E connection, cost shared between Singapore and internet2. • Today: six 100Gbps transpacific APAN member connections: Japan (2), Australia (2), Korea (1), Singapore (1) • october 2017: first intra-Asia APAN 100Gbps connectivity with the Singapore- Hong Kong – Japan circuit cost shared between SingAREN and NICT with mutual back-up and transit agreement in the spirit of the R&E GNA (Global Network Architecture). Singapore to Japan NII funded cct also upgraded to 100Gbps. • I00Gps connection from Singapore to London to be completed by end Q1 2019 Pg 5 The 100gbps R&E ring around the Globe becoming a reality this Q1 2019! • Professor Tan Tin Wee’s vision of a 100Gbps R&E ring around the Globe, first expressed in 2014 is on the verge of becoming reality. • At the TNC18 Conference in Trondheim, Norway, in june 2018, Japan announced a 100gbs connection to Europe via the Trans Siberian railway plus a 100Gbps connection from Europe to the USA, RFS Q1 2019. • Also at TNC18 a number of R&E partners including Nordunet, Geant and TEIN*CC, Surfnet, SingAREN and AARNet announced co-funding of a 100Gbps Europe to Singapore connection The RFQ was issued and a supplier selected to provide a 15Y IRU for a 100Gbps cct, RFS end Q1 2019 • This will bring GLIF closer to reality while the R&E GNA (Global Network Architecture) goes global with the partners providing each other mutual back- up, transit and overflow capabilities. Progress report on the Asia-Europe 100G (IRU, 15 years lease) 1. Collaboration and its parties • Co-funding of a 100Gbps Singapore to London, facilitation of Open Exchange • Six (6) parties – AARNet, SingAREN, TEIN*CC (Asi@Connect), NORDUnet, SurfNET, GEANT (Europe) • Each participant financially takes up 1/6th of the TCO, however on division/allocation of bandwidth among the parties of this collaboration, no allocation will be from an engineering perspective • GEANT led the procurement in line with the European Commission’s guidelines and AARNet contract signing with the awardee 2. Expected Effect/Outcome (in particular in terms of Asi@Connect) • Meet cost effectively the increasing bandwidth demand between Asia and Europe – currently 10Gbps co-funded with National Supercomputing Centre Singapore. Only 3 years to reach the Break Even Point with the existing cct! • Secure long-term sustainability of the use of R&E network between Asia and Europe – symbolic link for Asi@Connect project 3.

BBG2: EW-1 (HK to Bilbao), EW-2 (Medinah to Capetown) EW-3 (Satun, Thailand to Sydney) . Trying to firm up partners and financing . 72Tbps design capacity over 8 fibre pairs, tentative RFS for EW-1 end 2020. Aluminum based conductors for subsea cables! Under discussion for the last five years the commercial phase finally seems to get underway as announced By Alcatel (ASN) and Facebook who claim: 1. Has been tested, ready to deploy and is part of major planned subsea cable project. 2. Major cost saving compared to current copper based conductors 3. Allows for higher number of fibre pairs due to low direct current resistance If this new variant lives up to expectations and becomes widely accepted, it could reduce cost per gigabit by another order of magnitude over the next five to ten years for long haul subsea transmission, in open, competitive markets.

They want an easy API to access compute, data or instruments securely and efficiently, wherever they are located. • The various disciplines will enjoy the benefits of their own private network running over the shared infrastructure. This is made possible through te use of dedicated systems as data transfer nodes (DTNs) including Performance measurement and network testing systems that are regularly used to characterize and troubleshoot the network and most importantly Security Policies and enforcement mechanisms that are tailored for high performance science environments. • Operational RP’s are increasingly being used by various disciplines including weather forecasting, genomics, AI, HEP, astronomy and HPC. • An APRP WG was formed within APAN with Jeonhoon Moon (KISTI Korea) as Chair and Andrew Howard (ANU Australia) as co-Chair. First APRP WG taking place here in Daejon. • The final objective: Research at the speed of thought Convergence of Compute, Storage and Communications Collaboration is crucial for Economic Prosperity • AI, Deep Learning, machine learning with associated simulations and analysis have become a source of discovery. Areas such as Genomics and personalized medicine require ultra high security and reliability, fast data replication and disaster recovery. • Exascale computing is seen as the next Frontier with the USA, Europe, Japan and China allocating each in excess of one billion US$ to be the first to reach this milestone by the early 2020’s. The july 2018 TOP500 list now has 272 petaflop level machines up from 181 in November 2017 and 2 back in nov 2008. The list now includes sixteen 10 Petaflop level machines. • To remain relevant facing the exascale challenge, Singapore would like to invite APAN members and in particular ASEAN members to build shared HPC resources and the associated network infrastructure based on APRP to support our researchers in Government and Industry Research Labs and Academia as all research areas are becoming data and compute intensive.

This new policycan be achieved through networking the systems of business, education,and knowledge. The anticipated benefits of an informationcommunications infrastructure linking people with information, services,and knowledge in any place at any time are enormous asare thc challenges of developing and managing such a system. The authors of thesepapers discuss the benefits, disadvantages, and issues of this topic.Following the "Foreword" (Roy Merrills) and "Introduction" (OscarH.
