Radisys and ONF contributors will show live
demonstrations of mobile CORD (M-CORD) for delivery of 5G services
and use cases, based on open source software and Open Compute
Project (OCP) hardware, at Mobile World Congress 2017
Radisys® Corporation (NASDAQ: RSYS), the services acceleration
company, today announced the first end-to-end open reference
solution for M-CORD to accelerate service innovations and revenue
generation for mobile operators. The M-CORD open reference solution
is comprised of open mobile infrastructure and edge services, open
control and management, and a carrier-grade open compute platform
to maximize the economics and agility of cloud at the edge of the
network.
In addition, Radisys and ONF, which is merging with ON.Lab, will
show live demonstrations of 5G services and use cases with the
latest M-CORD innovations executed on the turnkey open reference
solution in Booth 5I61 in Hall 5 during Mobile World Congress,
February 27-March 2 in Barcelona.
“Radisys continues to advance the role of M-CORD by contributing
and integrating open source solutions for innovative 5G use cases,
in tight collaboration with CORD® partners and collaborators,” said
Guru Parulkar, executive director, ONF, ON.Lab and Stanford
Platform Lab. “As the leading open source system integrator in
mobility, Radisys will demonstrate M-CORD as an innovative, open
reference solution that tackles real world projects such IoT,
premium public safety and analytics. We are pleased in our growing
partnership with Radisys as M-CORD matures to inevitably become the
deployment-ready mobility solution for service providers.”
At Mobile World Congress, Radisys will run M-CORD on two
distinct open compute platform configurations: an entry-level
portable mini OCP 6U platform and Radisys’ DCEngine™, a
carrier-grade OCP 16U rack scale open platform. The 6U platform
provides an extremely cost-efficient mini-rack built with commodity
servers and switches that can quickly prove initial 5G service
testing with a lowest cost barrier to trial. Radisys’ DCEngine
rack-scale hardware system, inspired by the Open Compute Project
(OCP), yet enhanced for telco requirements and based on the
OCP-ACCEPTED™ CG-OpenRack-19 specification, is suitable for
demonstrating a deployment-ready M-CORD on a scalable carrier-grade
open hardware platform.
Radisys’ Professional Services, together with ONF and ON.Lab
partners and collaborators, have leveraged the M-CORD vision to
develop several evolutionary scenarios of 5G systems, including
integration, validation and testing. The resulting innovative live
demos at Mobile World Congress 2017 enable programmability and
service flexibility and include:
- Optimized CORE platform, providing
disaggregated mobility management entity (MME) and connectionless
gateway for IoT services
- End-to-end network slicing through RAN
and CORE
- High performance Enhanced Packet Core
(EPC)
- Premium safety as a service with secure
inspection
- Mobile traffic analytics with end to
end testing-as-a-service
“Mobile operators have been active in the open source community,
increasingly collaborating with like-minded vendors such as Radisys
to enable transformation from proprietary solutions to open,
flexible software-defined solutions built with open source
components,” said Brian Bronson, president and CEO, Radisys. “As a
CORD partner, we have embraced M-CORD to create an open reference
solution that can be deployed and scaled in mobile networks,
accelerating operators’ 5G service innovation and revenue
generation. Radisys is also leveraging its Professional Services
organization with integration expertise in mobile solutions, open
compute hardware and open source architecture and software, to
accelerate M-CORD from proof-of-concept to turnkey deployable
products in the field.”
In addition to delivering a turnkey M-CORD open reference
solution, Radisys’ Professional Services also enables custom
development services to meet each communications service providers’
unique integration requirements, to integrate M-CORD into existing
mobile network management infrastructures, delivering an open yet
customer-specific 5G service delivery and revenue generation
solution.
