1. A system for concerted upgrade deployment comprising:
a memory storing computer-readable instructions; and
one or more processors connected to the memory, wherein the one or more processors are configured to execute the computer-readable instructions for:
receiving information indicating one or more open radio access network (O-RAN) units to be updated, wherein the information is generated in response to selection of one or more units from a light comprising units that are operable in an O-RAN;
receiving a version identifier of a first upgrade;
receiving a path associated with the first upgrade;
receiving a first request to deploy the first upgrade to the one or more O-RAN units;
in response to receiving the first request, preparing a first standardized configuration payload,
wherein the first standardized configuration payload comprises:
the version identifier of the first upgrade; and
the path associated with the first upgrade;
instructing a transmitter to transmit the first standardized configuration payload in a first configuration file to a configuration management module or service;
receiving an indication of a fault during upgrading of the one or more O-RAN units; and
performing a fault management process on the one or more O-RAN units in response to receiving the indication of the fault.
