KubeCon + CloudNativeCon India 2024

In the telecom industry, service availability is critical, making local and geographic redundancy essential for disaster recovery. While 5G Core Networks emphasize centralized, cloud-native strategies, 5G Access Networks require distributed, low-latency redundancy for edge cloud environments. Current CNCF tools like Velero, Portworx, and Stash offer Backup and Recovery Solutions but lack live synchronization between active and standby clusters, crucial for telecom's KPI needs. This session will explore a K8S-native solution designed to bridge this gap, offering seamless redundancy for telecom workloads, particularly in microservices-based deployments like vRAN/ORAN. This solution supports a 2-way policy-based sync, allowing for fine-grained control on how data is managed during failover. The solution integrates with CNCF projects, including Nephio for intent-based automation and Prometheus for real-time monitoring, aligning with the move towards distributed cloud-native deployments.
