Product Architecture
| The system architecture of uUP is based on the standard ETSI NFV architecture. The main functional components can be deployed as VNFs on the virtual infrastructure and managed by the cloud platform. The system architecture of uUP is shown in the figure below:

|
| Genew UnionCore uUP is developed based on the idea of atom-level convergence, that means, not only the system is disaggregated into different modules, each module is a totally standalone Virtualized Network Function Component (VNFC) that could be deployed in a VM or Container, but also for both 2/3G, 4G and 5G signaling, are dealt within the unified Session Management (SM) module. |
Highlights
Module functions
| Module | Category | Description |
| RDB | Memory database | The RDB stores the PDP context with flow table, GTP parameters or the Network Function parameters. It is based on Redis DB, Redis DB is an opensource memory database with extraordinary performance and fertile functions. |
| OMU | O&M | The OMU is the Operation and Management Unit, provides routine FCAPS maintenance operation. |
| SMU | Interface & Service | The SMU is the Session Management Unit, deals with the N4 interface, processes the PFCP message, manages TEID, charging report etc. |
| SPU | Service | The SPU is the Slow Processing Unit, matches the user packets with PFCP rules, generates the flow table and provides the URR statics etc. |
| FPU | Service | The FPU the Fast Processing Unit, deals with user packets according to flow table, carries the URR and QoS operations etc. |
| DPDK | Service | The DPDK is an opensource highly efficient I/O processing unit, it reads or writes user packets from or to NICs. |
| EMS | O&M | The EMS consists of NEs’ O&M Agents and a Web Server to provide Browser & Server O&M architecture, and it also includes part of MANO’s functions like NFVO and VNFM. Its name is NuMax Cloud. |
