UNICLE

UNICLE is Ubiwhere’s telco product based on a web platform that solves technological and business problems at the same time. Moreover, aligned with Zero-Touch Management (ZSM) frameworks, the MVNOs should support the separation of management and automation into different areas of concern, leading to higher automation of their network and services.
Considering all these issues and needs, UNICLE gives access to several orchestration functionalities by dividing its components into 2 main platforms: Edge and Cloud Platform.
At the Edge, UNICLE complies with the ETSI MEC Framework, having all the necessary infrastructure for multi-tenancy deployment and orchestration requirements by introducing Intercluster policy-based networking.
Edge Orchestration will allow it to onboard different use cases and services, relying on an Edge Data Centre to make all the generated data available to the Cloud Platform. As the number of services and connected sensors can increase, UNICLE uses Virtualisation Software to allow multiple operating systems and applications to run on the same server simultaneously, lowering costs and increasing network efficiency.
On the upper layer, the Cloud Platform relies on a Neutral Hosting Platform that allows 3rd parties, such as enterprises, to leverage existing cellular networks to provide service. Besides, UNICLE provides Network Provisioning, including network management, orchestrating the network and monitoring the provided services' effectiveness by ensuring the requesting party that the service will be offered with the expected quality and resiliency.
Besides, the Cloud Platform is responsible for Orchestration & Infrastructure provisioning using a Slicing Manager and SDN Controllers. The first, the Slicing Manager, allows the transformation of the entire networking perspective by abstracting, isolating, orchestrating, and separating the logical network components from the underlying physical network resources.
