Auto-scaling of Intel FlexRAN components based on MicroK8s and Ubuntu real-time kernel support

RAN has incrementally evolved with every generation of mobile telecommunications, thus enabling faster data transfers between user devices and core networks. The amount of data has increased more than ever with an increase in the number of interlinked devices. With existing network architectures, challenges lie in handling increasing workloads with the ability to process, analyse and transfer data faster. The 5G ecosystem requires virtual implementations of RAN.

A practical guide to capturing production traffic with eBPF

Monitoring HTTP sessions offers a potentially powerful way to gain visibility into your web servers, but in practice, doing so can be complex and resource-intensive. Extended Berkeley Packet Filter (eBPF) technology allows you to overcome these challenges, giving you a simple and efficient way to process application-layer traffic for your troubleshooting needs.

From Smokestack to Full-Stack: Observability and the Digitization of Manufacturing

The pandemic hit manufacturing hard, with the workforce, supply chains, and investment all taking heavy blows. The bounce-back has also been punishing on the sector, with severe global competition for materials, disrupted logistics, and workforce shortages, all exacerbated by the human and economic disaster of Ukraine.

Three multi-tenant isolation boundaries of Kubernetes

Many of the benefits of running Kubernetes come from the efficiencies that you get when you share the cluster – and thus the underlying compute and network resources it manages – between multiple services and teams within your organization. Each of these major services or teams that share the cluster are tenants of the cluster – and thus this approach is referred to as multi-tenancy.
