Microsegmentation for telecom and 5G workloads

OpenShift-native microsegmentation for containerized network functions, signaling planes and MEC sites.

Telcos moving network functions onto OpenShift and Kubernetes face strict isolation requirements between control plane, user plane, signaling and management. Multi-cluster MEC sites multiply that complexity. Axera was designed where most Turkish telcos already run their cloud-native estate — OpenShift — and brings the change-control discipline telcos already use for traditional network changes.

Industry challenges

Plane isolation
Control plane, user plane, signaling and management must stay separated by policy — not by convention.
MEC and multi-cluster sprawl
Edge sites multiply. Each is a Kubernetes cluster. Policy has to scale with the footprint, not require per-site reinvention.
Operator-grade reliability
Network-function downtime carries regulatory consequences. Policy enforcement cannot itself become an outage cause.
Mature change-control already exists
Telcos have decades of network CR (change request) discipline. New tools have to fit that pattern, not invent a new one.

How Axera maps

OpenShift and any-CNI native
Built and tested on OpenShift, where most telco cloud-native workloads run. CNI-agnostic — works with whatever CNI you've standardized on.
Multi-cluster scale
Onboard tens of clusters. Deploy policy across all, by region, or progressively. Same UI, same audit trail.
PR-style change requests
Same diff / approval / rollback model your network engineers already trust — applied to NetworkPolicy.
Versioned rollback for safety
Every deployment is a versioned snapshot. Restore in one click if a policy push regresses a network function.
