What we’re doing together
Accelerating 5G RAN innovation
Red Hat and Nokia have successfully demonstrated an end-to-end 5G data call, using Nokia’s 5G Cloud RAN virtualized distributed unit as a containerized application running on Red Hat® OpenShift® that is optimized for cloud RAN workloads.
Supporting cloud-native adoption and 5G core deployment
Nokia’s cloud-native core is in live commercial service, serving multigenerational (5G standalone and non-standalone, 4G, 2G/3G), unlicensed wireless, and fixed access. Using a common cloud-native architecture and infrastructure-agnostic design, Nokia’s core products are deployed on any cloud, including Red Hat OpenShift across hybrid and multicloud environments.
Nokia AirScale 5G Cloud RAN is an open and cloud-native solution. Together with leading ecosystem players like Red Hat, we help the industry realize the benefits of 5G. As the latest proof of the way forward, we have successfully performed an end-to-end 5G data call with our virtualized distributed unit running on Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform.
Tested. Certified. Reliable.
With multiple certifications on Red Hat OpenStack® and Red Hat OpenShift, Red Hat and Nokia work together to tightly integrate the different RAN components with the capabilities of the underlying container-based architecture. To provide greater choice and flexibility for CSPs, each company maintains independent responsibility for sales, delivery, support, and life cycle management.
