5G Management and Orchestration Architecture Framework

The 5G network is expected to be service oriented with the premise that it will support various services of vastly different requirements on configuration including automation, performance, accounting and network status reporting. In support of this premise 3GPP agreed to adopt a service based management architecture framework in Rel-15, providing amongst other aspects the flexi-bility for integration with other architecture framework(s) to jointly fulfil the 3GPP service and network management requirements.
