3GPP as the foremost standards body driving network slicing defines the overall framework for Operators to provide customized network slice instances (NSI) that support various requirements/features. These include a Network Slicing management framework which this blog post will discuss.

s telcos and other CSPs begin moving to 5G RAN and 5G Core deployments, these are overwhelmingly based on Cloud-native microservice architectures, REST APIs, Kubernetes-based containers, and NoSQL databases for stateless architecture are commonly implemented in telecom networks. With this blog, we begin discussing life cycle management of 5G networks.

To break this out into numbers, a typical CSP will deploy hundreds of thousands of network services as virtual network functions (VNFs) or CNFs. VNFs will run in virtual machines that can optionally be run inside a Kubernetes distribution.
