AWS Telco Network Builder Documentation

With AWS Telco Network Builder (TNB), communications service providers (CSPs) can define network requirements by using telecom industry standards. AWS TNB maps the requirements to a cloud architecture and provisions the compute, storage, and networking resources based on those requirements. You can use AWS TNB to deploy, update, and upgrade network functions. AWS TNB also provides a centralized dashboard so that you can monitor and manage your network functions and AWS services from one place.

European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) SOL003 and SOL005 support.

AWS TNB supports popular European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) SOL003 and SOL005 interfaces.

Self-service interface using telecom industry standards

CSPs can define network services and network functions by using the AWS Telco Network Builder console, AWS Command Line Interface (CLI), or AWS Cloud Development Kit (CDK). The service and function definitions use the supported Topology and Orchestration Specification for Cloud Applications (TOSCA) format.

Lifecycle management

AWS TNB helps you to deploy, upgrade, update, and terminate network services comprised of network functions.

Network service visibility

AWS TNB provides you with visibility into network operations across planning, deployment, and operations for network functions.

Flexible network service definitions

Create network service templates with or without a pipeline for all telecom workloads (RAN, Core, IMS, and Network and Enterprise Applications). You can create a new service definition, use an existing template, or integrate with a continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline.

Resource dependency management

AWS TNB manages dependencies between resources during stack management actions.

Service version control

AWS TNB supports versioning of network service and network function templates, providing developers and operations engineers visibility into out-of-date deployments.
