As a cloud platform designer, I am responsible for designing and architecting tenant clusters for telco customers. This includes working with cross-functional teams to understand each customer's specific requirements and constraints, particularly the need for high performance data plane telco applications. To meet these needs, I design and implement a cluster infrastructure that is optimized for high performance and scalability.I have a deep understanding of Kubernetes and related technologies, such as Docker and ServiceMesh, which allows me to design and implement clusters that can handle the demanding workloads of telco customers. My experience with telco workloads, such as network functions virtualization (NFV), software-defined networking (SDN), and CNFs enables me to design cluster solutions that are optimized for the high-performance data plane requirements of telco applications.As a cloud platform designer, I am responsible for creating detailed architecture diagrams and documentation for the tenant clusters and working with development teams to ensure that the clusters are built according to the design. I also work with operations teams to ensure that the clusters can be easily deployed and maintained.I have a strong understanding of security and compliance requirements and work with security teams to ensure that the clusters are designed and implemented with security in mind.In addition to designing the tenant clusters, I am also involved in the implementation and testing of the clusters, to ensure that they meet the requirements of each customer and are fit for purpose, particularly the need for high-performance data plane telco applications.Org/Team: Strategic Missions and Technologies/Azure Operator Nexus SW Design.

5G Core - SMF, UPF and TDEF 5G UnityCloud is a webscale, cloud-native, 5G solution that empowers operators to dramatically reduce the costs of operating the network up to 90% by simplifying and automating network functions. UnityCloud converges “Any G” core, including 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G networks, and wireline core, onto one unified platform, greatly simplifying the overall network architecture.

The Nokia Cloud Mobile Gateway performs the gateway functions within the packet core. It is built to help you address the growth of mobile broadband, deliver new Internet of Things (IoT) and Machine Type Communications (MTC) services, and a foundation for 5G. With the Cloud Mobile Gateway, you get the flexibility, scale, capacity, and performance you need to support more users, devices, and services over licensed, unlicensed, or shared wireless and fixed access.The Cloud Mobile Gateway supports a wide range of mobile gateway functions:1. Serving Gateway (SGW)2. Packet Data Network Gateway/Gateway GPRS Support Node (PGW/GGSN)3. Home Agent (HA) for 3GPP2 cellular access4. Evolved Packet Data Gateway (ePDG) for non-3GPP (Wi-Fi) untrusted access5. Trusted Wireless Access Gateway (TWAG) for non-3GPP (Wi-Fi) trusted access6. Subscriber Services Gateway (SSG) providing enhanced Traffic Detection Function (TDF) for application awareness and flexible service chaining7. Hybrid Access Gateway (HAG) for converged service delivery across wireless and fixed access

The Sandvine Policy and Charging Rules Function (PCRF) - the Service Delivery Engine (SDE) - lets your entire network leverage the intelligence and power of the Sandvine Policy Engine so you can satisfy more policy control use cases, faster, on your existing policy enforcement infrastructure.Sandvine is the undisputed leader in best-of-breed network policy control: the Sandvine Policy Engine is empowering hundreds of communications service providers (CSPs) worldwide to implement fair-use policies, congestion management solutions, quota-based plans, and wildly innovative prepaid and postpaid subscriber services.The Sandvine PCRF - the Service Delivery Engine (SDE) - lets you implement many of these same use cases with your existing third-party Policy and Charging Enforcement Functions (PCEFs), including gateways (e.g., GGSN, P-GW, etc.) and even other DPI devices. The only requirement is that the enforcement device accepts 3GPP Diameter Gx. Choosing the Sandvine Policy Traffic Switch (PTS) as your PCEF/TDF lets you leverage the industry’s best traffic classification and proven subscriber service creation.

The Alcatel-Lucent 7302 Intelligent Services Access Manager (ISAM) is a high-capacity access node that delivers a superior service experience in DSL, GPON or point-to-point fiber networks. It is the cost-effective choice for established service providers and new entrants (utilities, municipalities, governments) striving to deliver universal broadband.The 7302 ISAM supports residential, mobile and business applications from a single IP/Ethernet/MPLS access platform. The product delivers 100 Mb/s and beyond per subscriber in mass FTTx deployments over copper or fiber. The 7302 ISAM offers 16 to 18 slots for GPON, P2P fiber, VDSL2 (including bonding and vectoring), ADSLx, voice, and SHDSL line cards. It has a dual 10-Gb/s backplane and delivers 2 x 320 Gb/s switching capacity in redundant configurations.Alcatel-Lucent ISAM products comprise the most widely deployed access platforms in the world. They power some of the world’s largest FTTH deployments, open networks and advanced VDSL2 deployments.
