Ella Core
🚧 Beta Notice
Ella Core is currently in beta. If you encounter any issues, please report them here.
Ella Core is a 5G mobile core network designed for private deployments. It consolidates the complexity of traditional 5G networks into a single application, offering simplicity, reliability, and security.
Typical mobile networks are expensive, complex, and inadequate for private deployments. They require a team of experts to deploy, maintain, and operate. Open source alternatives are often incomplete, difficult to use, and geared towards research and development. Ella Core is an open-source, production-geared solution that simplifies the deployment and operation of private mobile networks.
Use Ella Core where you need 5G connectivity: in a factory, a warehouse, a farm, a stadium, a ship, a military base, or a remote location.
Key features
- 5G compliant: Deploy Ella Core with 5G radios and devices. Ella Core's interfaces follow 3GPP standards.
- Performant data plane: Achieve high throughput and low latency with an eBPF-based data plane.
- Intuitive UI: Manage subscribers, radios, profiles, and operator information through a user-friendly web interface.
- Extensive HTTP API: Automate network operations with a complete REST API.
- Real-Time Observability: Access detailed metrics and dashboards to monitor network health through the UI and the Prometheus-compliant API.
- Backup and restore: Backup and restore the network configuration and data.
Tenets
Building Ella Core, we make engineering decisions based on the following tenets:
- Simplicity: We are committed to developing the simplest possible mobile core network user experience. We thrive on having a very short Getting Started tutorial, a simple configuration file, a single binary, an embedded database, and a simple UI.
- Reliability: We are commited to developing a reliable mobile network you can trust to work 24/7. We are committed to delivering high-quality code, tests, and documentation. We are committed to exposing dashboards, metrics, and logs to help users monitor their networks.
- Security: We are committed to minimizing the private network's attack surface, using secure encryption protocols to protect our users' data, to provide audit mechanisms, to identify and fix vulnerabilities, and to provide a secure-by-default configuration.
