1 Introduction

The 5G User Data Repository is one of the main key component of the 5G Service Based Architecture. User Data Repository is a converged repository which is used by other 5G Network Functions to store the data.

User Data Repository supports CRUD operations over HTTP2 that allows 5G elements have their subscriber data provisioned and get them retrieved with ease, using restful services.

The 5G User Data Repository provide flexible URI support, run-time schema validation, and supports multiple keys. User Data Repository uses MySQL NDB Cluster as the Data Tier for DB operations. The 5G User Data Repository registers with Network Repository Function in the 5G network, so the other NFs in the network can discover User Data Repository through Network Repository Function.

As per the 3GPP, Policy Control Function uses User Data Repository to store policy related data, UDM uses UDR to store subscription data and Network Exposure Function uses User Data Repository to store subscriber data that can be exposed to other entities.

In this release, User Data Repository supports only Policy Control Function data.
