This case study details the deployment of Red Hat OpenShift Platform Plus by O2 Czech Republic to support its new 5G Standalone (SA) network. O2, a leading telecommunications provider, aimed to modernize its core network to meet the performance demands of 5G SA while ensuring compliance with strict regulatory requirements. The case study outlines how Red Hat's open source cloud-native platform enabled O2 to create a highly available architecture across two data centers, hosting critical 5G functions for millions of subscribers. The deployment emphasized automation and zero-touch provisioning, significantly reducing deployment time from weeks to days. Additionally, the case study discusses the importance of security and compliance, highlighting O2's use of Red Hat Advanced Cluster Security and Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes. The architecture is designed for resilience, aiming for 99.999% availability, and supports operational efficiency through automated processes. Overall, the case study illustrates how O2 leverages Red Hat solutions to enhance service reliability and scalability.
