VVDN Technologies has collaborated with Red Hat Inc. to deploy its radio access network (RAN) Intelligent Controller (RIC) on Red Hat OpenShift. VVDN’s RIC is certified on Red Hat OpenShift and is set to revolutionise the performance, scalability, and security of RAN for global enterprises and telcos.
VVDN’s expertise in RIC with Red Hat OpenShift will deliver unparalleled scalability, security, and real-time optimisation. With the rapid adoption of 5G technologies and the growing demand for high-performance network solutions, this collaboration helps address the industry’s need for enhanced RAN management and automation.
As a certified solution on Red Hat OpenShift, VVDN’s RIC solution is designed to enhance the performance and efficiency of RAN by optimising and automating network resources in real time. Key benefits of VVDN’s RIC solution include real-time optimisation, which continuously adjusts network parameters for optimal performance and user experience, artificial intelligence (AI)-driven insights that use machine learning algorithms to predict and resolve network issues before they impact users, enhanced flexibility that supports various RAN architectures and multi-vendor environments, and improved resource utilisation, which maximises efficiency and reduces operational costs.
By deploying VVDN’s RIC solution on Red Hat OpenShift, enterprises can leverage the power of Red Hat’s cloud-native capabilities containerisation to deploy and manage RIC services more seamlessly. The deployment of RIC on Red Hat OpenShift offers streamlined scalability by enabling automatic scaling of RIC components to help meet demand and support high availability. It also provides enhanced flexibility with a cloud-native environment, supports integrated development using DevSecOps practices through continuous integration and continuous delivery/deployment (CI/CD) pipelines, and offers robust security features to protect RIC applications and data.
Commenting on the collaboration, Puneet Agarwal, chief executive officer (CEO), VVDN Technologies, said, “Collaborating with Red Hat is a pivotal step for VVDN as we continue to push the boundaries of telecom innovation. This collaboration allows us to combine our RIC expertise with Red Hat’s renowned hybrid cloud application platform, Red Hat OpenShift, providing telecom operators and enterprises with a solution that meets current demands and is future-proofed for the growing complexities of 5G and beyond.”
Meanwhile, Marshal Correia, vice president and general manager, Red Hat India, said, “Red Hat is excited to collaborate with VVDN Technologies to certify their RAN Intelligent Controller on Red Hat OpenShift. Together, we aim to deliver more scalable, secure, and cloud-native solutions for modern networks. By combining RAN optimisation with the capabilities of Red Hat OpenShift, this collaboration can help empower real-time optimisation, AI-driven insights, and enhanced efficiency, addressing the evolving demands of enterprises and telcos in the 5G era.”
