This overview focuses on helping telecommunications providers modernize legacy virtualization environments using Red Hat OpenStack Services on OpenShift. It supports both VNFs and CNFs on a unified control plane, enabling gradual transformation while maintaining service continuity. Podified control plane architecture enhances scalability and observability, and Ansible automation accelerates migration. By aligning modernization strategies with the “5 Rs” framework—repurchase, rehost, replatform, refactor, retire—service providers can reduce operational complexity, improve agility, and future-proof networks against evolving performance and AI demands.
