Deployment architecture overview

The Telco RAN distributed unit (DU) 4.16 reference design configures an OKD 4.16 cluster running on commodity hardware to host telco RAN DU workloads. It captures the recommended, tested, and supported configurations to get reliable and repeatable performance for a cluster running the telco RAN DU profile.

Deployment architecture overview

You deploy the telco RAN DU 4.16 reference configuration to managed clusters from a centrally managed RHACM hub cluster. The reference design specification (RDS) includes configuration of the managed clusters and the hub cluster components.
