3. In the Test Document, there is very limited information about performed tests (except for the Bluval) and even in the part on the tests related to APIs there is not provided any information except the inidication that this is a work in progress. It is recommended to provide a reference to either a Time Plan and/or Road Map indicating when the Testing is scheduled for (e.g. Q1 or Q2, 2021).
On your comment and inquiry on my remark about "Maturity of the Solution", I am sorry if I had been ambigous and/or misleading with my remark.
I meant about the status of Deployment Availability in terms of
1. "Concept" or
2. "Demo" or
3. "Commercial Deployment".
I suggest that with regard to the variety of preferences in terms of having a "Concept" that can be further built-upon (please read "Customized") or a "Demo", that provides a working SW/Functionality (that is "stable") or a Commercial Deployment that can be taken as it is (with integration to BSS/peripheral internal Platforms) to be deployed fast in order to be shown as a reference on the Market.
Such denomination (anyone of the listed 3 above) on the status of the "Solution Deployment Availability", depending on the party the Solution is discussed with, can provide opportunities.
Again, I would like to convey from my side that it is a remark-suggestion, rather than a requrement.
On the "Demo" elaboration, I suggest to people to elaborate about it in the "Architecture" documents as it is read by the Technical people, that provide recommendations to the Commercial people.
On the UPF deployment, please note that UPF might be deployed at the DC, Aggregation Point, BTS and/or 5G CN (Core Network) site.
There are certain conditions for that.
In your PCEI case, you chose DC. If you get some questions on that from people who are aware and work with that (that aso know the conditions, differences, requirements), depending on your answer, recipients of your answer, may measure your insights into various aspects that this issue concerns/relates to.
Just FYI.
The digram below may provide you with an insight about the use of the terms CSPs and Telco (difference) with regard to the presented by 3GPP High-level model of roles.
The below chart assigns a particular meaning in the Case of (5G NSA/SBA) Slicing (SST/SSI) deployment (NSaaS).
P.S. According to GSA, there are till now about 330 Applications to deploy 5G Private Network (and the allocated frequency is still witihn the Band 42). D.S.
