Roadmap to the Cloud Native Telco

Architecture for Hyper-Scale CSPs

ARTICLE & WEBINAR SERIES

Why Telecoms Needs a Cloud Native Manifesto

The imperative for Cloud Native engineering in the Telecomms sector is headlined by the clarion call from Orange for an industry manifesto.

Laurent Leboucher, group CTO and SVP of Orange, joins TelecomTV to describe the call to action for Telecomms to adopt Cloud Native computing.

The Cloud Native Manifesto, developed by the Next Generation Mobile Networks Alliance (NGMN), outlines the principles and guidelines for building cloud-native architectures in the context of telco networks.

Deutsche Telekom

Deutsche Telekom is a keynote exemplar of the Cloud Native Telco.

The rowed against a tide that said hosting on hyperscalers was the future and instead built their own on-prem, on bare-metal, open-source based Kubernetes platform.

THOUGHT LEADERSHIP

Anatonomy of the Cloud Native Telco

The purpose of our Roadmap is to provide a single framework for Telcos to plan their Cloud Native journey, aggregating expert insights from across the entire industry.

CNFs and Kubernetes

CNFs represent the evolution of virtualized network functions from Virtual Machines to containerized applications.

Microservices Architecture

Microservices architecture aims to take the Cloud model into telco infrastructure by building software that can run on commercial hardware to deliver virtual network functions (VNFs).

OSS Modernization

OSS and BSS functions will be instantiated as containerized microservices interconnected via a service mesh.

CSPs and other telecom organizations are migrating away from traditional Virtual Network Functions (VNFs) and Physical Network Functions (PNFs) toward CNFs and Kubernetes-based infrastructures that provide service reliability while lowering capital and operating expenses and encouraging cross-cloud compatibility.

Key use cases for applying Cloud Native functions is 5G, a headline network innovation driving the evolution of the Cloud Native Telco.

The cloud-native 5G network therefore becomes a ‘super-application’ in which all of its software components can be orchestrated together as a single entity.
