Now that we have discussed the networking part , the next step is placing the application into a host. Robin.io’s cloud platform has the concept of master, compute, and storage nodes. Typically, the hardware servers would have multiple NUMA nodes. In order to achieve the best performance, the platform should utilize the resources from the same NUMA node. Failing this – if users are consuming a resource from another NUMA node – then their performance would degrade.

Robin.io simplifies the operations and lifecycle management of 5G applications at scale and demystifies the complexity around 5G and network functions management. The simplified end-to-end automation and App-Store-like user interface makes the management of applications easy for operators. This is relevant for several reasons.
