Transition to LGfL 2.0 Contents & Objectives “Eating greens is a special treat, it makes long ears and great big feet but it sure is awful stuff to eat” “The past can hurt but as I see it you can either run from it or learn from it” “New lamps for old” “The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all” “Hakuna Matata” “The most fantastic, magical things can happen and it all starts with a dream”
“Eating greens is a special treat, it makes long ears and great big feet but it sure is awful stuff to eat” • The network is the platform for the future • But we have to eat some greens to get there • Wayleave / Route approvals • Fibre works across London • Planning around the Olympics • School access • Varied contract end dates • Critical path priorities
“The past can hurt but as I see it you can either run from it or learn from it” Average Daily Install Rate • But the greens we have eaten are paying off… • 500 Sites Connected • Target 90 a week • We need your help • An available flow of sites • Be prepared We need to complete 18 sites a day to hit our targets
Roughly 85% of schools in London had a connection lower than 10Mbps The new option of granular bandwidth What does this mean….. Minimising the single points of failure in the network Pushing Security out to the edge Network Resilience Using Virgin Media Business sites Securing best value in ICT investment * Source – The worlds longest novel; In search of lost time by Marcel Proust (4211 pages over 7 Volumes) “New lamps for old”
It is a network that will exceed today's needs and will support future ambition “The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all” A true ‘London Grid’ of infrastructure Abbey Wood Chelsea Eltham Hatch End Tooting South Lambeth North Wembley Kidbrooke Hayes Enfield Clapham Waltham Forest Acton Southfields Orpington Oxford Circus Clapham Common Hersham Epsom Bermondsey Walworth Ladbrooke Grove Forest Hill Kingsbury Hither Green Cricklewood Bexleyheath Finchley West Dulwich1 Leatherhead Plumstead Mortlake Roehampton Brent Cross Croydon Westminster Global Switch Lewisham Sudbury Streatham Deptford Camden Telecity London 1 New Cross Gate Seven Kings Shepherds Bush Ealing Charlton Dalston Brixton Hammersmith Haringey Grove Park Brentford South Harrow Southwark Poplar New Malden Stanmore Dormers Wells Bromley Telehouse East East Dulwich Harlesden Telehouse 1&2 North Harrow
The new network can play a part in solving some of the current challenges London schools face Swelling intake Bandwidth hungry applications Teaching remotely Video conferencing in schools Making schools shared environments Secure transfer of information “Hakuna Matata” – no worries
And to talk about those fantastic, magical things I will hand you back to Brian Eating greens is a special treat, it makes long ears and great big feet but it sure is awful stuff to eat” (Bambi) The past can hurt but as I see it you can either run from it or learn from it (The Lion King) New lamps for old (Aladdin) The flower that blooms in adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all (Mulan) Hakuna Matata (The Lion King) The most fantastic, magical things can happen and it all starts with a dream/vision (Pinocchio) “The most fantastic, magical things can happen and it all starts with a vision”*(*Artistic licence applied)
