This is a proposal for a new Blueprint Species addition to the existing Integrated Cloud Native NFV (ICN) blueprint. The contributors to this blueprint are the same as the original ICN blueprint (with some changes), and we will seek more members to join the blueprint.
Case Attributes | Description | Informational |
Type | New | |
Blueprint Family - Proposed Name | Integrated Cloud Native NFV (ICN) | |
Use Case | End to end connectivity using Private LTE/5G over the CBRS band | |
Blueprint proposed Name | Private LTE/5G ICN blueprint | |
Initial POD Cost (capex) | Same as ICN — 50K minimum | |
Scale & Type | Same as ICN — Minimum of 4 Xeon Servers + 1 Xeon server as genesis | |
Applications | RAN+Core (initially LTE, eventually 5G), and reuse of existing ICN applications: ML/DL Analytics, EdgeXFoundry and 360 degree Video streaming | |
