OCP is hosting a joint workshop with The Linux Foundation and ONF at theBig 5G Event (formerly the Big Communications Event) on Monday, May 6 in Denver.
Title: "Transforming 5G Networks through Open Source and Disaggregation"
Open source is enabling dramatic transformation of operator networks. Both open source hardware and software are impacting all aspects of 5G, from RAN to the mobile Core.
Three of the leading open source communities (Open Compute Project, Linux Foundation & Open Networking Foundation) are coming together to facilitate an integrated workshop covering all aspects of this activity. This will be a unique opportunity to learn about the full spectrum of activities and how they interrelate. This first-of-its-kind workshop will provide insight into the interweaving of all the various projects and provide opportunities to hear directly from and interact directly with leading operators and community experts.
Attendees can expect to come away with a clear understanding of the broader ecosystem of open source, how operators are leveraging this work, how the supply chain is engaged, and how you can get more involved.
