Licensing

Radio Edge Cloud is Apache 2.0 licensed. The goal of the project is the packaging and installation of upstream Open Source projects. Each of those upstream projects is separately licensed. For a full list of packages included in REC you can refer to https://logs.akraino.org/production/vex-yul-akraino-jenkins-prod-1/ta-ci-build-amd64/313/work/results/rpmlists/rpmlist (the 313 in this URL is the Akraino REC/TA build number, see https://logs.akraino.org/production/vex-yul-akraino-jenkins-prod-1/ta-ci-build-amd64/ for the latest build.) All of the upstream projects that are packaged into the REC/TA build image are Open Source.

Introduction

This document outlines the steps to deploy Radio Edge Cloud (REC) cluster. It has a minimum of three controller nodes. Optionally it may include worker nodes if desired. REC was designed from the ground up to be a highly available, flexible, and cost-efficient system for the use and support of Cloud RAN and 5G networks. The production deployment of Radio Edge Cloud is intended to be done using the Akraino Regional Controller which has been significantly enhanced during the Akraino Release 1 timeframe, but for evaluation purposes, it is possible to deploy REC without the Regional Controller. Regardless of whether the Regional Controller is used, the installation process is cluster oriented. The Regional Controller or a human being initiates the process on the first controller in the cluster, then that controller automatically installs an image onto every other server in the cluster using IPMI and Ironic (from OpenStack) to perform a zero touch install.
