Aether Governing Board member and Technical Steering Team (TST) Chair Larry Peterson recently spoke at the Linux Foundation’s 2024 ONE Summit. Larry presented on Aether: Private 5G for Industry 4.0, which included an overview of the Aether architecture, key innovations of Aether (SD-Core and SD-RAN) and Aether’s deployment machinery (OnRamp).
SD-Core supports 4G & 5G network functions and includes APIs for configuration, telemetry, policy management. Access networks can connect to Access & Mobility Management Function (AMF) or Mobility Management Entity (MME) depending on the type of access used.
The SD-Core v1.4.0 release includes bug fixes to improve stability, CI pipeline migrated to GitHub Actions, performance improvements to the UPF, and integration testing using OnRamp.
