ABotEdu is a virtual 5G lab in a box that bridges theory and hands-on practice, enabling students and developers to master 3GPP procedures through interactive simulations.
ABotEdu - Virtual 5G Lab for Learning and Application Development ABotEdu is a virtual 5G lab in a box designed for 5G learning and application development. It bridges the gap between theoretical classroom concepts and hands-on telecom practice by offering a simulated virtual lab environment, video tutorials, and self-assessment modules - all deployed as an Amazon Machine Image (AMI) within your AWS environment. Who Is ABotEdu For? ABotEdu is built for organizations and individuals focused on 5G education and workforce development: - University telecom departments looking to supplement lecture-based curricula with interactive, hands-on 5G lab exercises - Corporate training teams preparing engineers and technicians to work with 5G network architectures and 3GPP procedures - Individual learners seeking to build practical skills in 5G protocol analysis and network function interactions How It Works ABotEdu provides multiple views of 3GPP procedure call flows, giving users a comprehensive understanding of how 5G network functions interact: - Topology View - Visualize the network functions required for a given procedure and understand their relationships - Procedure Flow View - Step through the sequence of events in a 3GPP procedure to understand signaling logic - Message Flow Diagram - Examine detailed message exchanges between network elements in a structured diagram format - Feature File View - Review and understand the feature files that define the nuances of each procedure call flow - Call-Flow Execution - Execute feature files directly within the platform and view the resulting call-flow diagram for the entire procedure Example Workflow A typical learning session follows this path: an instructor or learner selects a 3GPP procedure scenario, reviews the topology of involved network functions, studies the procedure flow and message flow diagrams to understand signaling behavior, examines the feature file for detailed protocol logic, then executes the feature file to generate and analyze the complete call-flow diagram. Self-assessment modules allow learners to test their understanding after each exercise. Key Capabilities - Simulated Virtual 5G Lab - Practice with 3GPP scenarios without requiring physical network equipment - Video Tutorials - Guided video content covering 5G concepts and platform walkthroughs - Self-Assessment Modules - Built-in quizzes and evaluations to measure comprehension and track progress - Interactive Call-Flow Analysis - Execute procedures and visualize results in real time within the platform - Multiple Visualization Modes - Switch between topology, procedure flow, message flow, and feature file views for each scenario Deployment on AWS ABotEdu is available as an AMI on AWS Marketplace. After subscribing, launch the AMI on a supported EC2 instance to begin using the platform. Please contact the vendor for recommended instance types, network configuration requirements, and post-launch setup instructions.

Highlights
Interactive Virtual 5G Lab Environment: ABotEdu provides a complete virtual 5G lab in a box, eliminating the need for complex physical infrastructure. Students and developers can explore the topology of network functions, view procedure call flows, and analyze message flow diagrams - all within a self-contained simulation environment that bridges theory and hands-on practice.
Multi-View 3GPP Procedure Analysis: Gain deep insights into 5G operations through multiple visualization perspectives including topology views, procedure flow views, and detailed message flow diagrams. Execute feature files and instantly view the resulting call-flow diagrams to understand how 3GPP scenarios work in real-world telecom environments.
Built-In Learning Resources and Self-Assessments: ABotEdu includes integrated video tutorials and self-assessment tools designed to guide learners from foundational 5G concepts to advanced telecom mastery. The structured learning path demystifies complex 3GPP scenarios and prepares the next generation of telecom experts with practical, job-ready skills.
AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
Pricing is based on a fixed subscription cost and actual usage of the product. You pay the same amount each billing period for access, plus an additional amount according to how much you consume. The fixed subscription cost is prorated, so you're only charged for the number of days you've been subscribed. Subscriptions have no end date and may be canceled any time.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.
You pay for this product on a usage basis, billed by the hour on a single c5.2xlarge compute instance. There is one pricing dimension, so your cost scales directly with how many hours the instance runs. There are no tiers or separate add-ons to choose from. You start and stop the instance as needed, and you are charged only for the hours you use. This hourly model suits hands-on lab sessions that run for defined periods rather than continuous operation.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What compute resource do I get for the hourly c5.2xlarge rate?
You run the software on one c5.2xlarge instance, a compute-optimized AWS virtual machine with 8 virtual CPUs and 16 GB of memory. The hourly rate covers that single running instance. Your AWS compute and storage charges for the instance apply separately under your AWS account.
Am I charged when the c5.2xlarge instance is stopped between lab sessions?
The hourly software charge meters only the time the instance runs. When you stop the instance, the software charge stops accruing. You pay only for the hours the instance is active. Stopped instances may still incur underlying AWS storage fees under your own AWS account.
Does the hourly rate include radio hardware or does it cover software only?
The hourly charge covers the software lab environment running on the instance. The platform is software only and needs no radio hardware to start. You can connect your own radio equipment over standard interfaces, but that hardware is not part of this hourly charge.

An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
