Abstract
Disclosed are various embodiments for automated deployment and management of distributed units (DUs) in a radio-based network. In one embodiment, it is determined to deploy a radio-based network at least partially using infrastructure of a cloud provider network. A radio access network (RAN)-enabled edge server of the cloud provider network is deployed to a physical location of the radio-based network. The RAN-enabled edge server is configured to perform a set of distributed unit (DU) functions for the radio-based network.
