“By combining Network As Code and 5G slicing in a standalone slicing in live events, it would be possible to enhance the end user experience during live events as seen in demonstration at the Nokia Arena. One of the key expectations from the Nokia – Elisa collaboration is to accelerate innovation through the Network As Code framework.”
Juha Saarinen
Technology Manager, Cloud Services, Elisa
“Today, we saw how we could leverage Network As Code’s Quality of Service on demand capability to dynamically adjust our cloud-based production quality. This feature allows us to prioritize our data on the network, ensuring a high-quality wireless production, even when thousands of users share the same 5G network.”
Arttu Rautio
Chief Financial Officer, Kepit Systems
“The Immersive Arena Experience application was developed for the Nokia Radio World event which was held here in this very same arena. It utilizes Immersal’s visual positioning system (VPS) and uses augmented reality to provide guidance towards destinations that have AR experiences at them. As soon as we open the application and connect to Elisa’s 5G network, we can use the device location API of Network As Code to get the pre-positioning information, which allows us to get a more efficient and accurate positioning and nagivation experience.”
Jesse Nukarinen
AR Developer, Immersal
“The visual positioning system is not perfect. It works in the same way as the human brain. If you are in a hotel, it’s impossible to say which floor you are on. By using Network As Code, you will get the pre-location and know roughly where we are. Some of the use cases are so difficult that the only option to make a successful product is using the Network As Code platform.”
Matias Koski
CEO, Immersal
