OnRamp Roadmap

Dec 19, 2024

The following is a high-level Roadmap for Aether OnRamp.

Infrastructure Improvements

General improvements to the DevOps tooling/infrastructure that supports Aether.

  • Support Ubuntu 24.04.

  • Migrate CI jobs to GitHub Actions.

  • Make UPF subnets configurable (so can run multiple instantiations of Aether on the same LAN).

  • Add option to install Aether behind a proxy.

Near-term Blueprints

Configuration options that OnRamp should be able to support. These features have previously been demonstrated in other settings, but need to be packaged for release as OnRamp blueprints.

  • Configure with a second (and third) base station.

  • Configure with example edge app to demo local breakout.

  • Configure with Monitoring Alerts.

  • Configure with secure login using Keycloak.

  • Configure with ElasticStack (collect and display logs).

Long-term Goals

Towards the goal of an end-to-end software-defined 5G network.

  • Configure with multiple SD-Core Control Planes.

  • Configure with multiple sites under centralized control.

  • Expand RAN options, especially ones that utilize SD-RAN:

    • Rearchitected RANSIM

    • nFAPI Emulator

    • ...
