DISH’s Smart 5G network: Cloud-native data streaming
summary
DISH builds a cloud-native Smart 5G that reaches 70% of the U.S. population in roughly 3.5 years, pairing Confluent (Confluent Cloud and Confluent for Kubernetes), Apache Kafka (plus Apache Flink), EKS, cluster linking and connectors, and AWS networking (PrivateLink, Transit Gateway, Local Zones/Outposts). The platform treats the radio stack as a data generation machine, enforces schemas and contracts via Schema Registry, supports a data mesh across 60 partners, and proves that real-time data beats slow data for retail POS fallback, connected cars, and factory predictive maintenance.
