Reliance Jio has introduced the Jio True 5G Developer Platform and Jio 5G Lab, enabling startups and enterprises to develop 5G use cases on Jio’s 5G network, edge computing and partner solutions.

“It will allow companies to activate network slices on demand, deploy applications on Jio’s multi-access edge compute locations and access a diverse ecosystem of partner applications on the platform,” said Akash Ambani, chairman of Reliance Jio, at the 46th Reliance Annual General Meeting (AGM).

The platform will also enable quick deployment of 5G edge compute solutions, enabling fast, autonomous decisions, immersive experiences and real-time edge AI, added Ambani.

Put simply, network slicing is making ‘slices’ of a 5G network to deploy certain use cases without the interference of other use cases. A 5G network can have any number of ‘slices’ to separate various applications. For instance, a network can have a separate ‘slice’ for low-latency applications such as streaming videos or playing online games, where user experience is paramount.

Enterprises can access advanced network slicing capabilities, which would enable them to independently establish and optimise network slices consistently. This should theoretically improve the network resource management for enterprises offering cloud-based solutions.

The platform also offers access to partner solutions, allowing enterprises and startups to deliver 5G use cases.

Network slicing also offers a high degree of security since no two slices interact with each other.

During the event, Ambani also announced the launch of Jio 5G Lab at Reliance Corporate Park in Navi Mumbai. The facility will enable partners and enterprise customers to develop, test and produce industry-specific solutions.
