    摘要: Embodiments are directed towards systems and methods for enabling a telecommunication service provider to control an underlay network in cloud service provider environment. One such method includes: dictating control of the underlay network to a telecommunication service provider in the cloud service provider environment; enabling control of a number of virtual routers to be deployed by the telecommunication service provider in the cloud service provider environment; and managing route tables for the virtual routers deployed by the telecommunication service provider in the cloud service provider environment. In some embodiments, the Virtual Private Cloud design is configured to be similar to a design of the on-prem architecture of the telecommunication service provider.

    摘要: Example embodiments are directed towards systems and methods for a fifth generation (5G) cloud-native wireless telecommunication network operated by a mobile network operator (MNO) implemented on a public cloud of a cloud computing service provider. Such a method may include the MNO operating telecommunication network functions (NFs) of the 5G wireless telecommunication network running within the public cloud. An indication may be received that one or more of the NFs of the 5G wireless telecommunication network running within the public cloud has a requirement to connect to another communication service provider (CSP) network different than the 5G cloud-native wireless telecommunication network operated by the MNO. Based on the indication, the system causes an autonomous system number (ASN) of the MNO to be used for network traffic from the one or more NFs to the other CSP network instead of an ASN of the cloud computing service providers.

    摘要: Example embodiments are directed towards overcoming limitations of a virtual private cloud (VPC) implemented on a public cloud in a cloud-native 5G wireless telecommunication network by overlaying a network of virtual routers (vRouters) across a software defined data center (SDDC) and virtual private cloud (VPC) in such a manner that enables telecommunication network traffic to communicate between one or more telecommunication NFs of the 5G wireless telecommunication network running on a cloud-native platform of the public cloud (e.g., may be workloads that exist in native AWS) and one or more other telecommunication network functions (NFs) of the 5G wireless telecommunication network running in the in the SDDC using the connected VPC (e.g., such as when using VMWare Cloud to implement the SDDC). The connected VPC is a private cloud existing within the public cloud 202 and the overlay network implemented by such vRouters operationally connects the VPC to the host public cloud and other public clouds.

    摘要: Embodiments are directed towards systems and methods for user plane function (UPF) and network slice load balancing within a 5G network. Example embodiments include systems and methods for load balancing based on current UPF load and thresholds that depend on UPF capacity; UPF load balancing using predicted throughput of new UE on the network based on network data analytics; UPF load balancing based on special considerations for low latency traffic; UPF load balancing supporting multiple slices, maintaining several load-thresholds for each UPF and each slice depending on the UPF and network slice capacity; and UPF load balancing using predicted central processing unit (CPU) utilization and/or predicted memory utilization of new UE on the network based on network data analytics.
