What happens when cloud-native innovation meets the network edge? Discover how Nokia is helping Telcos break free from traditional appliance-based deployments with CMG-c1 and Compact Kubernetes Distribution (CKD). In this demo, a Nokia Cloud Mobile Gateway (CMG) User Plane Function (UPF) runs on a microcluster edge platform, providing secure subscriber connectivity and integrated network functions in a lightweight Kubernetes environment. See how cloud-native edge deployments unlock greater scalability, lower operational costs, simplified operations, and faster service innovation. The result: new revenue opportunities, more agile networks, and advanced edge applications that were previously out of reach.
