| The trial involved 3GPP Release 15-compliant, containerised standalone 5G core technology, designed to support a 5G standalone core network that could take KDDI one step closer to network slicing and ultra-reliable low latency. The container-based technology also aims to enable automatic deployment of new software and functionalities, while maintaining the quality and availability of the 5G core network.Ericsson and KDDI partnered to create a cross-organisational end-to-end 5G CI/CD pipeline – moving from native to virtualised and cloud-native network functions and speeding up the software acceptance process through advanced automation of software distribution, deployment, validation and feedback, while reducing human-error risks. The pipeline deploys software from Ericsson’s product development units into KDDI’s environment without human intervention.“Our 5G core and unique CI/CD capabilities mean faster time to market, higher performance and cost efficiency,” said Jan Karlsson, Ericsson’s head of business area digital services. “Agile delivery of services while maintaining high quality and availability is a must in 5G core networks. Our CI/CD end-to-end software pipeline achieves this. We are happy to continue to work with KDDI to automate its network operation.”Meanwhile, with Nokia, KDDI has just completed a trial of the 5G core standalone (SA) network, using the Finnish firm’s AirGile cloud-native core system. The technology can be rolled out in a traditional network environment or a cloud environment and is fully compliant with 3GPP Release 15 5G core functions. The test was conducted independently of previous generations’ mobile network architecture.As KDDI plans to evolve from a non-standalone (NSA) 5G core network to a full 5G SA core, the trial was designed to ensure the operator could understand the key requirements, roadmap and performance of a 5G core SA deployment. The trial allowed KDDI to highlight how a 5G control plane can utilise the communication model of web services to create multiple software instances in a cloud environment. -- ???????? | |||
