Kubernetes Service Management by Sterling SkyWave#
Sterling SkyWave Service Management is a developer extension for NVIDIA ARC-OTA that enhances its capabilities with two key features:
Kubernetes (K8s) Service Orchestration: Utilizes Helm for application management and includes two main Helm charts: skywave-service-management for gNB servers and oai-5g-basic for CN5G servers. The extension supports both single-node and multi-node deployment topologies, offering flexibility in network setup.
Service Monitoring: Leverages open-source tools such as Grafana, Loki, Promtail, and Prometheus to provide comprehensive monitoring and visualization capabilities. It offers three default dashboards: ARC-OTA for gNB and UE status, GPU for NVIDIA Data Center GPU Manager (DCGM) metrics, and Host for system-level metrics.
