Systems and methods for performing a call trace with a cloud-implemented
cellular network core are provided. In one example, a method includes: receiving input of a
cloud computing region of a
cloud computing platform for call trace, identifying a plurality of instantiations of a pod within a
cellular network core function of a
cellular network core, the cellular network
core function being executed on the cloud-computing platform, and executing a call trace for the plurality of instantiations of the pod within the cellular network
core function. The cellular network core of a cellular network is implemented across multiple
cloud computing regions, and the cellular network core is implemented on the cloud computing platform that includes a plurality of cloud computing regions that includes the cloud computing region.
