Fedora inspired guest OS for cloud RAN apps
summary
Fedora-inspired WadersOS is an in-house RPM-based OS for Cloud RAN that targets both x86 and arm64 and ships weekly release cycle immutable images for OpenStack VMs and tiny Kubernetes container nodes. It automates kernel and package updates with CI workflows that run builds in Koji, reproducible container builds and 90 automated tests (robot framework) plus performance regression suites, maintains about ~700 packages, supports cross-compilation and produces tiny Docker/base images, and catches regressions but still struggles with major upgrades and legacy patches.
