Blueprint Family - Proposed Name

Public Cloud Edge Interface (PCEI) Blueprint Family


Use Case

Telco Edge deployments can provide APIs to support capabilities such as the following

  • UPF shunting capability -- routing the traffic to desired applications and network functions
  • Local breakout – video traffic offiload
  • Wireless air-port status
  • Location service -- location of a specific UE, or identification of UEs within a geographical area
  • QoS acceleration – provide low latency, high throughput for OTT applications
  • Slicing scheduling management -- offering dedicated resources specifically tailored for application needs
  • Authentication – provided as service enablement (e.g., two-factor authentication) used by most OTT service providers 
  • Security – provided as service enablement (e.g., firewall service insertion)
