The dominant model of application design today is the modular, micro services-based framework of cloud-native implementations. A parallel evolution of the software-defined infrastructures on which those workloads run has occurred, allowing them to be almost arbitrarily scalable in a distributed mode. CSPs have committed to adopting this paradigm in their large-scale, centralized data centers, distributed mobile core and radio access network deployments, and in their edge application infrastructures. By re-architecting their service delivery platforms in this way and integrating those infrastructures with the cloud-native applications they are supporting, they are transforming their environments into large-scaled, distributed, and increasingly automated application delivery platforms that can work with a rich and diverse set of workloads.
