Landslide Release:

QUIC & Other Platform Enhancements
QUIC is an UDP based transport for HTTP, designed with the goal of enhancing user experience with web applications. For instance, faster page load times. Initially introduced by Google, there is also an IETF specification for it. In 21.0, Landslide has made significant improvements to QUIC testing capabilities, primarily around more flexibility in terms of shaping the QUIC traffic. 21.0 supports the Google version of QUIC.

Network profiles are another platform feature aimed at improving usability. This feature allows users to easily move test cases from one testbed, lab, or network to another.

Continuing with the theme of enhancing cloud support, 21.0 introduces EKS (Elastic Kubernetes Service) for Landslide; making it easier to deploy on AWS.

Furthermore, Landslide 21.0 continues to enhance the core applications. AMF Nodal is enhanced with another interTech mobility scenario and location service among other procedures. ORAN CU testing capabilities are further improved with more mobility testing scenarios. 4G applications SGW Nodal and MME Nodal are also enhanced.
