Donated by LFN member China Mobile, XGVela provides a PaaS platform to accelerate the design, development and innovation of telco-related services, and is the first open source platform-as-a-service (PaaS) for 5G network functions

The project refines common capabilities of upper layer services as PaaS functions on platform layer. The platform brings General PaaS functions from existing open source PaaS component projects (e.g.  Grafana, Envoy, Zookeeper, etc.) to be enhanced with telco requirements, and Telco PaaS which has strong telecommunication characteristics and is under exploration.

Summary of Project functionality

  • XGVela integrates Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) projects based on telco requirements to form General-PaaS. Telco enhancement requirements will be explored.XGVela studies 5G NF microservice design method, develop and integrate Telco-PaaSis an open source cloud native PaaS for applications and telco network functions, which is to enable new services and help mobile operators to seize the business opportunity from vertical industries in the 5G era
  • Vela stands for sail in Latin, and also it is the name of a constellation. With XGVela, a PaaS platform with telco features can be used to accelerate the design, development and innovation of telco related service design.
