Unlocking the value of 5G to deliver business outcomes
Teradata supports customers in taking advantage of their private 5G networks.
Following the 5G standard, Teradata has developed an initial set of standard microservices running on Teradata VantageCloud, which allows customers to load data from 5G networks that track key performance indicators (KPIs) and predictions from the 5G Core network. By providing these KPIs, VantageCloud becomes a trusted application function of any 5G network, accelerating time to value for customers. Data coming from those microservices can be enriched and correlated with additional network feeds—for example, a radio access network (RAN)—and other customer-specific data and applications—such as enterprise resource planning (ERP), logistics, and internet of things (IoT).
Teradata partnered with Telefónica to create a pioneering 5G smart logistics solution, which will be presented at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona in February 2024.
About the pilot
Telefónica has collaborated with key strategic partners Teradata, Nokia, and Etiqmedia, a provider of real-time video analytics, to develop a pilot for the Würth Group, a worldwide wholesaler of fastening and assembly materials.
Würth sought to digitize its packing and logistics processes to improve throughput and avoid packing errors. This process included:
- Reducing the number of stoppages by alerting operators in real time to possible jamming of boxes on the conveyor belt during packing
- Auditing bills of material to verify that packages contain the correct contents
- Validating that packages are loaded to the right pallet and truck to ensure delivery accuracy
- Planning for capacity and space in the warehouse to ensure availability to receive goods at the logistics center
- Creating a complete and centralized vision of all processes and KPIs—including historical, real-time, and predicted insights—via an application available to logistic center workers and managers
KPIs are delivered in dashboards that provide monitoring and early incident detection, with data ingested into VantageCloud and analytics created using in-database functions.
Delivering the solution
Telefonica delivered a 5G private network using Nokia equipment at one of the Würth logistics centers. The Etiqmedia solution collects data from video cameras connected to the 5G network to provide real-time video analytics. All data is stored in VantageCloud, the complete cloud analytics and data platform for AI.
Through Telefonica’s 5G+ network and the real-time video analytics solution connected to VantageCloud, Würth combined video and sensor data to facilitate decision-making through dashboards, which provide early warning of stoppages and quality issues during packaging and dispatch.
