62060 Postings, 7031 Tage LibudaDeal indicating Rakuten as a trusted partner


Nokia lands core role at Rakuten Mobile

ANNE MORRIS, Contributing Editor, Light Reading 2/25/2020

Nokia has landed a prime deal with Rakuten Mobile that will see the Finnish vendor operate the virtualized core platform of Japan's newest mobile operator as part of a managed services contract.

The deal is designed to allow Rakuten Mobile to focus on developing its service portfolio and expand its footprint, "while developing operational maturity and automation capabilities." Nokia said it will support more than 160 virtual network function instances across two data centers in a multivendor cloud environment.

Nokia was already on an illustrious list of vendors selected by Rakuten Mobile that also includes Altiostar, Allot, Ciena, Cisco, F5 Networks, Innoeye, Intel, Mavenir, Netcracker, Netrounds, OKI, Qualcomm, Quanta, Red Hat, Tech Mahindra and Viavi. However, this latest deal is a further feather in its cap, indicating it is a trusted partner that, all concerned hope, can run a virtualized core platform.

All eyes are on Rakuten Mobile as it gears up to launch what is arguably the most cloud-oriented mass-market mobile network in the world, a feat made possible because it is a greenfield network with no legacy elements or infrastructure.

62060 Postings, 7031 Tage LibudaLyft Will Take User Share from Uber Through 2023

In a marketplace crowded with competition, ride-hailing pioneer Uber still dominates the US transportation-sharing economy. But as the first mover's growth slows, its main competitor Lyft will increasingly claim market share.

We estimate that 74.5% of transportation-sharing users in the US will use Uber in 2020, compared with 54.0% who will use Lyft. Over the next three years, Lyft will continue to grow its share of transportation-sharing users at faster rates than those of Uber, according to our latest forecasting report, “US Sharing Economy 2020.”

By the end of 2023, Lyft’s share of transportation-sharing users will reach 59.0%, less than 13 percentage points behind Uber.

readies for April launch in Japan

Feb 26, 2020 12:15pm

“We intend to export what we have built outside of Japan as well,” said Rakuten’s chief executive and founder Mickey Mikitani, speaking during a livestream of a Qualcomm event that was held instead of a press event at MWC 2020. That show was cancelled earlier this month over concerns of COVID-19.

“Rakuten Mobile is not just about Japanese mobile network operator service, but we want to become – together with Qualcomm and others – [a] global MNO platform service,” continued Mikitani.

Mikitani did not provide additional details, but earlier in the presentation noted that Rakuten – an e-commerce giant that has created an ecosystem of other services it offers including online banking, mobile payments and messaging apps among others – had 1.4 billion global members in 2019.

“It is absolutely real,” said Amin of the virtualized mobile network. “It’s delivering capacity that is unprecedented, it’s delivering cost savings that’s unimaginable.” He noted those savings are not only related to cellular capital expenditures, but to operating expenditures, with only 130 people on Rakuten Mobile’s network operation team today.

Amin reiterated that one of the most fundamentally different aspects of Rakuten’s network is the virtualized radio access portion, which in contrast to core infrastructure, is where billions of dollars are usually spent.

A year later, Rakuten's mobile optimism remains undimmed

Japan's Rakuten arrived in Barcelona, Spain, like a freight train at last year's MWC trade show, promising to completely upend the industry with a radical new network architecture designed to dramatically cut down expenses.

Today, a year later, there's certainly some dirt under Rakuten's fingernails, hinting at the difficulties it has encountered so far. But in an online presentation by Qualcomm this week intended to replace the company's 2020 MWC press conference that was canceled due to concerns about the spread of COVID-19, Rakuten executives remained decidedly optimistic.

The Rakuten Mobile network is "delivering cost savings that is unimaginable," said Chief Architecture Officer Tareq Amin. "It's no pie in the sky"

Rakuten's Mikitani: "Now we are ready to launch our service," he declared.

Although that's a significant delay from an October 2019 launch date Rakuten executives had touted at last year's MWC, it nonetheless represents clear progress by Rakuten on its promise to launch "the world's first end-to-end fully virtualized cloud-native network."

Amin said the company's network is supporting 99.7% availability as it scales up from 5,000 users added in October 2019 to 20,000 added in January 2020. And Rakuten recently reiterated its plans to launch 5G by June 2020.

Currency Cloud, a UK-based provider of cross-border money transferring services that are in turn used by a number of money transfer and payments businesses, has landed an $18 million round of funding. The Series C round — which brings the total raised by the company since 2012 to $36 million — is notable not only because it underscores progress for the company, but also because of who is doing the investing.

Sapphire Ventures — the now-independent venture arm of SAP — led the round with participation also from Japan’s e-commerce giant Rakuten.

62060 Postings, 7031 Tage LibudaImproved Profitability will Drive Lyft Stock

Higher in 2020  - Market rationalization and cost-cutting will spark a 2020 rebound in Lyft stock
By Luke Lango, InvestorPlace Markets Analyst Feb 6, 2020, 2:39 pm EST

Both companies will continue to cut costs and raise fees throughout 2020 as they make a big push towards profitability. This will ultimately result in margin improvements, narrower losses and enhanced visibility with respect to long-term profit growth prospects. All of those good outcomes will help propel a 2020 rebound in Lyft stock.

It is important to note that, even though Lyft is focused on cost-cutting in 2020, the company won’t lose much (if any) ride-sharing momentum.

This is for two reasons. First, the North American ride-sharing market in which Lyft operates is a two-horse race, and the other horse (Uber) is also cutting costs. Lyft’s only true competitor, Uber, is also making significant cuts to its marketing team and also raising fees.

Second, secular ride-sharing adoption tailwinds remain robust. In the absence of price-cutting and big marketing spend, what will drive Lyft’s revenues higher in 2020 and beyond are ride-sharing adoption tailwinds, which remain healthy. Traffic is still a problem, especially in urban areas. Parking is still a problem, especially in urban areas. Car rentals are still expensive. Consumers still like to go out and drink at nights.

So long as those things remain true, there will remain growing demand for ride-sharing services in North America. And, so long as that remains true, Lyft’s revenues will keep moving higher.

Dahmakan, a Malaysian food delivery startup that uses menus and cloud kitchens, has raised $18 million in a Series B funding round, according to a report by TechCrunch.

Participants in the round include Rakuten Capital, White Star Capital, JAFCO Asia and GEC-KIP Fund, food delivery app Woowa Brothers, Partech Partners and Y Combinator.

Dahmakan’s full-stack platform features an operating system that is end to end and oversees every part of its process, from developing a recipe to delivering the food to a person’s doorstep. It offers 40 dishes a week based on a database of about 2,000. The company picks its menu every week through customer data, food preferences and spending habits of customers.

CEO Jonathan Weins, when speaking with Business Times, said the company’s operating system helps the kitchens to be more profitable and operate more efficiently than competing quick-service restaurants (QSRs).

Rakuten Mobile, Altiostar to launch container-based 5G radio access network platform
Friday 28 February 2020

Altiostar announced that it's launching what it calls the world’s first container-based, cloud-native 5G radio access network (RAN) software. The platform was created in collaboration with Intel and will be deployed with Rakuten Mobile in Japan. As an industry first, this platform takes the open virtualised RAN concept, pioneered by Altiostar, and further decomposes the network functions into containerised applications that are fast to deploy, can be individually upgraded and offer better network scalability. The new vRAN software dramatically improves the economics, deployability and scalability of 5G RANs for mobile network operators (MNOs).

The server platforms that drive the virtualisation technologies in Rakuten Mobile’s network are based on high performance Intel Xeon Scalable Processors. As part of this project, Intel will release various Kubernetes plugins that make possible the deployment of RAN and MEC application containers on Intel architecture.

62060 Postings, 7031 Tage LibudaRakuten to set big data mobile plan at 2,980 yen

per month to undercut rivals: Nikkei
March 01, 2020 06:27 pm
By Sam Nussey

TOKYO (Reuters) - Japan's Rakuten Inc plans to set its big data mobile plan at 2,980 yen ($27.68) per month, or less than half of major rivals' offerings, the Nikkei business daily reported on Monday.

Rakuten has attracted global attention as it says it has radically cut the cost of network construction by using cloud-based software and commoditized hardware instead of proprietary equipment.

The company, which hopes the mobile service will drive traffic to its ecommerce and finance offerings, has pushed back the launch of the network after suffering build-out delays, with trial users having connection problems.

"It is difficult to make a clear comparison between data plans offered by different mobile carriers due to the complexity of the plans and campaign pricing. However, a rough comparison is possible. NTT Docomo currently offers a 60GB a month plan for ¥6,980. Softbank is offering an unlimited data plan for ¥7,480 per month and SoftBank has a 50GB monthly plan for the same amount.
RakutenMobile’s plan to offer a high-usage data plan for ¥2,980 a month would be a shot across the bow for the big carriers. The company is even considering offering an unlimited data plan for that amount.

With consumers increasingly streaming video on their smartphones, Rakuten Mobile sees a big opportunity in offering an easy-to-understand, low-cost high-use data plan. As a mega e-commerce company that also offers many other services, including fintech and digital content, Rakuten also has an opportunity to include these other services as standard to new subscribers. Some 100 million people currently have a Rakuten-related user ID."
