Vodafone is aggressively deploying Kubernetes-based telco cloud across its markets to support 5G Core and other containerised network functions, and recently went live with 5G SA Core CNFs in the UK, with other markets following. In this presentation we cover our experience so far, what we learned, what we got wrong, what problems we faced, how we solved some of them, and what we need going forwards from our colleagues, partners and vendors to create a truly cloud-native 5G core Telco Cloud. We will be sharing these experiences both from the point of view of the Kubernetes-based telco cloud builders' perspective and the CNF operator's perspective - what are the main gotchas when building carrier-grade telco cloud, such as using Multus and Whereabouts for providing multi-homed networking, and what are our expectations as a Network Operator that needs to provide Telco Services to its customers using cloud-native technologies, for example the journey to Cloud Native EMS (Element Management Systems).
