Canonical and OpenAirInterface to collaborate on open source telecom network infrastructure
- Canonical is collaborating with OpenAirInterface (OAI) to develop and promote open source software for Open RAN.
- The two companies aim to establish an open source framework for Open RAN with interoperability between various system components.
- Canonical will help provide automation in software lifecycle management to OAI’s RAN stack, enhancing infrastructure capabilities.
- Open source software can be integrated with multiple hardware and software components from different vendors, ensuring carrier-grade and open-source software stack for network function vendors and telcos.
- The initiative aims to integrate open source software solutions which brings extra layers of security and efficiency.
- Canonical is promoting Open RAN with open-source virtual RAN (vRAN) workloads, while focusing on user experience, cloud-native development environments, security and transparency.
- Some of the tracks will involve performance optimization with strong partnerships with silicon vendors and tests of software and hardware interoperability on different architectures.
- Canonical’s automation in software lifecycle management will enhance orchestration for OAI RAN software stack.
- OpenAirInterface expressed excitement in collaborating with Canonical towards the common goal of achieving Open RAN as an open-source technology.
- Canonical plays a pivotal role in the open-source cloud-native ecosystem and aims to incubate a wider ecosystem for open RAN and boost adoption of open source technologies in 5G RAN deployments.
