Architecture

The ODA Canvas represents a fundamental shift in how telecommunications providers architect and implement their digital operations.

SPs are simply a way of first standardizing , consolidating, and automating processes in cost-effective locations to provide services to internal customers.

This post will consider the top four intertwined system architecture considerations in deploying edge applications successfully on a hardware platform.

We continue our discussion of the public reference architecture on the Dish 5G buildout on AWS with a look at the physical network design and datacenter layout.

DISH Networks is pioneering the deployment of a greenfield 5G network. This implementation uses O-RAN standards and consists of a Radio Unit(RU) deployed on cell towers and a Distributed Unit (DU) as well as a centralized unit (CU) which is deployed in an AWS local zone. While these components combine to provide a full RAN solution that handles radio level control and subscriber data traffic, let us consider the key architecture lessons from this first blog.
