The Superfluidity EU project focuses on 5G networks, and goes one step further into the virtualization and orchestration of different network elements, including radio and network processing components, such as BBUs, EPCs, load balancers, SDN controllers, and others. To take advantage of the mobile/edge network possibilities, and enable the required flexibility to instantiation services on the fly anywhere on the network (core, aggregation or edge) we proposed to use both OpenStack and Kubernetes at VIM level, with Kuryr as the glue enabling both deployment models. As we integrate several network layers and orchestrators we have had to integrate several network layers: Neutron, Kubernetes, Kuryr and orchestrators (ManageIQ, OSM, Tacker...). This session will go along and explain all the interactions between them and how Kuryr can be used as a common element.
