Abstract

This presentation navigates the intersection of 5G and virtualization, offering  a comprehensive guide to building a Kubernetes (K8s) cluster and configuring the OAI 5G core network. It explores the role of virtualization in 5G networks, emphasizing Docker’s pivotal role in containerization. Attendees will gain insights into building their K8s cluster, laying the groundwork for 5G deployments and learn to deploy the OpenAirInterface (OAI) core network alongside UERANSIM (gNB and UE) integration. This session provides essential insights for architects and developers venturing into 5G deployments amidst virtualized environments.
