Paving the Future of Open, Flexible, and Scalable Mobile Networks
Isolated Networks is actively deployed in the Linux Foundation under its Magma Core project. Magma Core advances open-source mobile network infrastructure to provide greater access to scalable, next-generation connectivity for mobile operators and private network providers.
Developed initially by Facebook Connectivity (part of the Open Infrastructure Foundation) and now stewarded by the Linux Foundation, Magma Core is an open-source software platform that enables service providers to deploy mobile networks (4G, 5G, and beyond) with greater flexibility, cost-efficiency, and resilience, especially in underserved or remote regions.
Isolated Networks is contributing engineering resources, architectural guidance, and deployment insights to improve Magma Core’s reliability, modularity, and performance in edge and low-resource environments.
Why Magma Core Matters
As telcos, governments, and enterprise operators look to modernize their infrastructure, Magma Core provides:
- Open Standards & Interoperability – Avoiding vendor lock-in while enabling flexible deployments.
- Cloud-Native Architecture – Designed for containerized and distributed environments, enabling fast scaling and automation.
- Support for Rural & Edge Use Cases – Ideal for private LTE/5G, edge deployments, and scenarios with limited backhaul.
Magma Core has already seen adoption by operators globally, and the Linux Foundation’s governance ensures that it remains a community-driven, neutral, and rapidly evolving platform.
Isolated Networks’ Contributions
As part of its engagement, Isolated Networks’ solution helps contribute to:
- Core Network Stability & Optimization – Improving data plane resiliency and performance tuning for constrained environments.
- Security Enhancements – Hardening the platform for zero-trust deployments and mission-critical use cases.
- Edge-First Deployments – Ensuring Magma Core functions efficiently in fully isolated or intermittently connected edge sites.
These contributions align with Isolated Networks’ broader strategy of protecting connected devices through secure, invisible networks on-premises and in the cloud for industries ranging from energy and defense to rural communities and critical infrastructure.
