| Abstract | ||||
| This paper narrates the journey of transforming 5G core network deployment by utilizing a microservices architecture within a Telco cloud environment, achieved through the integration of Proxmox and OpenStack. As telecommunication rapidly evolves, the progression of 5G technology demands a more intricate infrastructure to support its unique needs. This research leverages Proxmox and OpenStack to streamline deployment time while maximizing resource utilization and flexibility. It expands on established methods and solutions, underscoring the need for intelligent, energy-efficient infrastructure, particularly for upcoming 5G services. The study demonstrates how customized base images, tailored for Telco workloads, can facilitate the deployment of diverse network functions (NFs) with specific requirements. The primary objectives include employing Proxmox for virtualization and OpenStack for orchestration, thereby enhancing scalability and resource management. By designing distinct images for each NF based on the base image, this approach aims to boost performance, optimize resource allocation, and increase efficiency within the Telco cloud environment. This research holds significance as it offers potential advancements for future Telco cloud deployments of 5G core networks, aligning with the industry’s need for scalable and efficient infrastructure. Through empirical evaluations and real-world case studies, the research provides strong evidence for the scalability and effectiveness of the proposed solution in the face of rapidly advancing telecommunications technology. | ||||
