Aether
TECHNICAL PROJECT LEAD
Oğuz Sunay, ONF
Aether is the first open source 5G Connected Edge platform for
enabling enterprise digital transformation. It provides mobile
connectivity and edge cloud services for distributed enterprise
networks as a cloud managed offering. Aether is an open source
platform optimized for multi-cloud deployments, and simultaneous
support for wireless connectivity over licensed, unlicensed and
lightly-licensed (CBRS) spectrum.
Aether is the foundational platform for the $30M DARPA Pronto project.
Project Pronto is building and deploying a beta-production
end-to-end 5G connected edge cloud leveraging a fully
programmable network empowered with unprecedented visibility,
verification and closed-loop control capabilities to fuel innovation and
secure future network infrastructure.
Cornell, Princeton and Stanford are funded to pursue the Pronto
research on network verification and closed-loop control while ONF is
funded to build, enhance, deploy and operate an Aether network in
support of this research.
