Minimum Viable Product
The following application components are the MVP from the Casablanca releases.
- Policy Portal Dashboard - Console GUI where Models, Templates can be imported, updated, deleted, as well as, policies can be created, updated and deleted. The console GUI also has a dashboard where PDP's can be grouped and where Operators can control where policies are distributed to.
- Policy PAP web application - Policy backend that manages communication with PDP engines for policy distribution.
- Policy Drools PDP - PDP Engine for policies/templates that are translated into Drools Rules.
- Policy XACML PDP - legacy XACML PDP for policies/templates that are translated into XACML Policies. Also is the entry point for API requests which get routed through legacy PAP to Drools PDP.
- Policy BRMS Gateway - intermediary backend for distributing policies to the Drools PDP and configuration details to the Drools PDP controller.
- Policy SDC Service Distribution - integration with SDC for service distribution
- Policy Apex PDP - PDP engine for policies that are translated into Apex Policies.
The following application components are being newly developed for the Dublin release to support the New Policy Architecture.
- Policy API - Lifecycle API that supports onboarding Policy models/templates and the creation of raw policies from the models/templates.
- Policy PAP (2nd Gen ?) - PAP component that allows PDP engines to be grouped in order to support a set of policies and Deploy/Undeploy of Policies into these PDP groups.
- Policy XACML (2nd Gen) - lightweight XACML PDP

API Incoming Dependencies
List the API this project is expecting from other projects.
Prior to Release Planning review, Team Leads must agreed on the date by which the API will be fully defined. The API Delivery date must not be later than the release API Freeze date.
Prior to the delivery date, it is a good practice to organize an API review with the API consumers.
| API Name | API Description | API Definition Date | API Delivery date | API Definition link (i.e.swagger) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SO API | REST API for SO | M3 | M3 time | |
| AAI | REST Web Service for AAI | Casablanca | ||
| Control Loop Event Messages | Dmaap messages published by DCAE when a Control Loop Event occurs. | Casablanca | n/a | n/a |
| APP-C | Dmaap message LCM API for Restart and ModifyConfig | Casablanca | ||
| DMAAP | API for publish/subscribe to DCAE Control Loop Events and APP-C API | Casablanca |
API Outgoing Dependencies
API this project is delivering to other projects.
| API Name | API Description | API Definition Date | API Delivery date | API Definition link (i.e.swagger) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Policy Client API | This is the legacy Policy API is used by other ONAP components to create, update and delete policy(s). | Casablanca version - no changes | n/a | Policy API |
| Policy Query API | This is the legacy Policy API is used by other ONAP components responsible for enforcing policy during runtime. | Casablanca version - no changes | n/a | Policy API |
| Policy Lifecycle API | The new Policy Lifecycle API description, documentation, models, etc. | M3 Dublin | M4 Dublin | TBD |
Third Party Products Dependencies
Third Party Products mean products that are mandatory to provide services for your components. Development of new functionality in third party product may or not be expected.
List the Third Party Products (OpenStack, ODL, RabbitMQ, ElasticSearch,Crystal Reports, ...).

|---|---|---|
| MariaDB | The MariaDB is the repository that holds all the policies, templates, PDP group, and deployment information. | 10.2.14 |
| Nexus | The Nexus repository holds all the currently deployed Operational (i.e. Drools policies) and their dependent artifacts. | 2.14.8-01 |
| Ubuntu | Operating system | 14.04 |

Gaps
This section is used to document a limitation on a functionality or platform support. We are currently aware of this limitation and in the Dublin Release we are working on re-building the current Policy Framework Software Architecture that does not have these limitations.
List identified release gaps (if any), and its impact.
| Gaps identified | Impact |
|---|---|
Policies that are specific to drools are routed through the PDP-X via BRMSGW. | This is unsustainable long-term as we move to a distributed PDP micro service architecture and need to utilize a Policy Distribution API to groups of PDP's spread out over the installation of ONAP. |
| The long term architecture view is for policy artifacts to be located in a nexus repository that are pulled by appropriate PDP micro service engines. Dependencies would be set in the policy artifact jar files themselves and not hard coded into the platform as a JSON file. Having a JSON file to specify dependencies is a poor implementation architecture and there is no need to re-create Policy artifacts. |
Policy template/model/rule development environment is too tightly integrated with the Platform code and is not sustainable in the long term. | The long term vision is for separate of Platform from Policies and the current architecture is too far off in its development to move to this goal. |
New policy models require too much development effort for integration with the Policy GUI. | The long term goal was a platform that could ingest policy models organically and not require any development work. The Policy GUI should be to interpret any TOSCA Model ingested and flexibly present a GUI for a user to create policies from. |
| Policy API is not RESTful and acts more like database query rather than request for a Policy Decision. API also hardcodes models of policies. | The long term goal for the architecture which is to be able to create domains for policies and be flexible import models for those domains without any development to the platform. |
Policy API does not support Lifecycle management for policies that are deployed such as modes and retirement. | This additional requirement is better suited for the new proposed Policy Lifecycle API than the current API. |
Known Defects and Issues
Provide a link toward the list of all known project bugs.
Risks
List the risks identified for this release along with the plan to prevent the risk to occur (mitigation) and the plan of action in the case the risk would materialized (contingency).
| Risk identified | Mitigation Plan | Contingency Plan |
|---|---|---|
| Not enough resources to meet all the functional requirements. | All Epics are assessed a priority. | |
| Need the SO API defined by a reasonable timeframe for implementation to happen | We will use the current SO RESTful API until the new API is in place. |
Resources

Free and Open Source Software
FOSS activities are critical to the delivery of the whole ONAP initiative. The information may not be fully available at Release Planning, however to avoid late refactoring, it is critical to accomplish this task as early as possible.
List all third party Free and Open Source Software used within the release and provide License type (BSD, MIT, Apache, GNU GPL,... ).
In the case non Apache License are found inform immediately the TSC and the Release Manager and document your reasoning on why you believe we can use a non Apache version 2 license.
Each project must edit its project table available at Project FOSS.
Charter Compliance
The project team comply with the ONAP Charter.
