RADISYS SOLUTION BRIEF | Radisys M-CORD: The Open Platform for Emerging 5G Applications
Summary
M-CORD is an open source reference architecture
solution built on the pillars of open source SDN, NF V
and cloud technologies. It is an ideal vehicle to drive
disruptive innovations on both the access and
packet core side to provide the end requirements of a
5G network which is mostly being driven around ultra-
low latencies and IoT devices. And more importantly,
M-CORD allows service providers to experiment with
and realize 5G technologies on an LTE network running
on M-CORD today without having to wait for all of the
5G standards to be ratified. Moreover, this architecture
is an ideal fit for multi-access edge computing (MEC)
where a lot of optimizations and innovations can be
done at the network edge rather than traversing all the
way to the Central Office.
