Here is a slide deck that provides further background on this use case: 


Use Case Name:Public Cloud Edge Interface –  5G
Use Case Description:

Srinivasa Addepalli Oleg Berzin Amar Kapadia Vivekanandan Muthukrishnan 

A 3GPP compliant Private 5G blueprint to showcase the flexibility of 5G Core deployment

Problem Statement and how is the problem solved:This blueprint will be based on the Akraino Public Cloud Edge Interface (PCEI) blueprint. The goal of this blueprint, as it pertains to the 5G SBP, is to show end-to-end Private 5G functionality by using Free5GC to showcase the flexibility of 5G Core deployment options.

Users Stories

  • Demonstrate full Private 5G functionality with Slicing (implemented through a closely related 5G SBP Use Case - 5G Slicing use case) and MEC breakout
    • Local Break-Out (LBO) – Examples: video traffic offload, low latency services, roaming optimization.
  • Demonstrate UPF running in the enterprise or cloud edge (Colo datacenter) (AMF + SMF could be considered if we want to use the Magma style AGW architecture)
  • Demonstrate the remaining 5GC in the cloud edge or the public cloud
  • Demonstrate replacing the Free5GC UPF with higher performance alternatives
  • Optional/Future
    • Integrate Free5GC UPF+AMF+SMF (AGW equivalent) with the Magma Or8str
    • UPF Distribution -- distributing User Plane Functions in the appropriate Data Center Facilities on qualified compute hardware for routing the traffic to desired applications and network/processing functions/applications.
    • Mobile Hybrid/Multi-Cloud Access - provide multi-MNO, multi-Cloud, multi-MEC access for mobile devices (including IoT) and Edge services/applications
    • Enterprise Wireless WAN access - provide high-speed Fixed Wireless Access to enterprises with the ability to interconnect to Public Cloud and 3rd-Party Edge Functions, including Network Functions such as SD-WAN.

5G Slicing Use Case (this blueprint and the 5G Slicing blueprint are related and use the same underlying software components/infrastructure)

  • Network Slicing provisioning and management - providing continuity for network slices instantiated in the MNO domain, across the Public Cloud Core/Edge as well as the 3Rd-Party Edge domains, offering dedicated resources specifically tailored for application and functional needs (e.g. security) needs.
