UDSF-6G

Unstructured Data Storage Function with In-Memory Key-Value

An ultra-fast, distributed in-memory key-value cache allowing 6G network functions to remain completely stateless for instant failover and auto-scaling.

Technical Explanation

To achieve true cloud-native elasticity, 6G control plane network functions must be completely stateless: if an AMF or SMF container crashes, another instance must immediately take over the session without the user noticing. UDSF-6G provides a distributed, microsecond-latency in-memory data store (built on Redis/Dragonfly clusters) where transient session contexts, timers, and TCP states are cached and synchronized across edge clusters.

Key Functions

  • Microsecond-latency in-memory key-value storage for transient session states
  • Enabling 100% stateless network function architectures for instantaneous auto-scaling
  • Instantaneous session state recovery upon unexpected container or node crashes
  • Dynamic memory eviction and TTL expiration policies preventing memory leaks
  • Geo-distributed replication keeping edge session caches warm prior to user handovers
