The main goal of ystero project is to develop open source telecom software using modern, high performance, memory safe programming languages like Rust.
Initial focus is on the development of a commercial open source OpenRAN RIC Platform, starting with Near Real-Time RIC Platform. The platform will leverage the software components from the O-RAN Software Community’s RIC Platforms.
Rust being a relatively new programming languages, development of telecom software in Rust requires considerable bootstrapping, notably for protocols commonly used in Telecom signalling like ASN.1 and SCTP etc. As a part of the project goal, open source implementations are available. See projects for more details.
