“Back in June, Canonical (the firm behind the Ubuntu Linux distribution), released Charmed Aether SD-Core, its implementation of Aether’s SD-Core as a beta release. At this launch, Canonical billed the offering as a way for companies that lack the deep technical expertise of an MNO to deploy a 5G-native network core. — to orchestrate the various microservices needed to keep the network online and in harmony, running on commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware, deployed via K8s.”
“Canonical provided an October update on its Aether-based progress. Next week, at the Ubuntu Summit, a live demonstration of Charmed Aether SD-Core will be running and available for perusal.”
“We are excited about this live demonstration of Charmed Aether SD-Core which combines Aether SD-Core, a scalable open source cloud native mobile core for Private 5G deployments with Canonical’s powerful orchestration engine,” said Larry Peterson, a member of the Aether board and the chair of the Technical Steering Team. “Charmed Aether SD-Core simplifies the operation of a Private 5G, enabling enterprises to efficiently host their own edge applications.”
