Cellular networks transformation to cloud native

Alexey Shapin, Ericsson

Abstract: Cellular networks traditionally used purpose build hardware optimized for standardized interfaces, radio-related procedures and signal processing. With 4G and 5G, the Core of cellular network has been transformed and migrated to cloud, so, nowadays, cloud native Core has become an industry standard. However, there is a way to go – cloudification of Radio Access Network (RAN) is next obvious step. This keynote speech outlines the industry state-of-the-art and gives an overview of driving forces as well as technical challenges on the way to cloud native RAN.
