Optimizing RAN compute resources in a vertically scaled vRAN deployment

A system to optimize an allocation of a computing resource in a distributed unit, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• one or more memory devices communicatively coupled with the processor and storing instructions, for, when executed on the processor, causing the system to execute functions of:
• periodically pooling a plurality of computing resources in a distributed unit, wherein each of the plurality of computing resources executes an operation related to the distributed unit;
• detecting at least one event from a plurality of events in the distributed unit;
• based on the detected at least one event, determining at least one affected computing resource from the plurality of computing resources affected in the distributed unit;
• and
• based on the determination, dynamically detecting and reconfiguring at least one of the plurality of computing resources other than the at least one affected computing resource in real time, so as to reallocate, to another computing resource the at least one detected and reconfigured of the plurality of computing resource, an operation which previously was executed by the at least one of the plurality of affected computing resource, to optimize an allocation of the at least one detected and reconfigured computing resource from the plurality of computing resources in the distributed unit,
• wherein the dynamic detection and reconfiguration of the at least one of the plurality of computing resources is provided by statistical multiplexing of the plurality of computing resources for execution of one or more operations in the distributed unit, wherein the statistical multiplexing of the plurality of computing resources enables hot plugging of one or more computing resources from the plurality of computing resources.
