GitOps Based Cloud Native 5GC Lifecycle Management – Case Study Based on Mavenir 5GC Implementation in Deutsche Telekom Technik with Das Schiff (T-CaaS @ TDG) Platform

summary
Case study of a Mavenir 5GC deployed on Deutsche Telekom’s Das Schiff (T‑CaaS @ TDG) platform explains a GitOps workflow that puts Cluster API and git as the single source of truth, runs CNFs on bare metal with Kubernetes, and separates management and workload clusters. Reconciliation is automated so teams push changes a couple times per week and can revert site states quickly, but rolling upgrades and multus/UPF offload remain hard: true ISSU without traffic migration is not solved and continuous root‑cause testing is required.
