This post discusses how to overcome the first limitation of K8s from a 5G standpoint – enabling pods to assume multiple network interfaces. 

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.

So far we have discussed 3GPP standards for 5G NR (New Radio) https://www.vamsitalkstech.com/5g/5g-new-radio-nr-platform-architecture/  and 5GC (Core)  https://www.vamsitalkstech.com/5g/5g-core-5gc-platform-architecture/ architecture. While all of the 3GPP releases till Release 15 assume that an…

The goals of the 3GPP are to standardize core functions in the SBA to be microservice and cloud-native. When the Telco cloud becomes ‘Cloud-Native’ and Stateless

We discussed the 5G Service Based Architecture in this post. CSPs know that 5G deployments will take both time and effort.

In this post, let us identify the core architectural components of a mobile network.

Telcos are very attractive partners to hyperscalers, and it is not uncommon to see operators partner with multiple cloud vendors. Expect to see much more revenue sharing, joint GTM, and marketing as 5G becomes reality in late 2021.
