Open source in the radio network
The biggest game changer in the telecom space
The disaggregation of RAN HW and SW speeds up innovation and allows true multi-vendor, flexible deployment based on open interfaces.
OpenRAN
The OpenRAN is an initiative to define and build 2G, 3G, 4G and 5G RAN solutions based on general-purpose vendor-neutral hardware, open interfaces and software.
Vendor neutral
We work with all major hardware vendors to make optimisations
Ubuntu, Kubernetes, OpenStack, MAAS, LXD are all optimised for OpenRAN RU, CU and DU workloads thanks to our collaboration with hardware and software platform vendors.
Deploy anywhere
Juju is designed to model hybrid and multi-cloud environments, as well as provide native support for containers (KVM, LXD), container management (Kubernetes), networking/firewalls, and storage.
Juju allows you to deploy, configure, manage, maintain, and scale cloud applications on all of these substrates.
Clean, composable operators
Do one thing and do it well
Juju operator integration allows us to keep each operator as simple as possible, then compose them to create rich application graph topologies that support complex scenarios with a simple, consistent experience and much less YAML. The UNIX philosophy of ‘doing one thing well’ applies to large-scale operations code too, and the benefits of clarity and reuse are exactly the same. Small is beautiful.
Open source security
More than Linux. Security and compliance for the full stack.
Secure your open source apps. Patch the full stack, from kernel to library and applications, for CVE compliance. Governments and auditors certify Ubuntu for FedRAMP, FISMA and HITECH.
- 10 year security maintenance and CVE Patching
- Kernel Livepatch for 24/7 patching with no downtime
- Extended security for infrastructure and applications
- FIPS 140-2 cryptographic modules certified by NIST
- Common Criteria EAL2: ISO/IEC IS 15408 validated by CSEC
- DISA/STIG hardening for DoD compliance
- CIS profiles for cyber defence and malware prevention
