#IssueNotes/JiraDecision
1What topic to use for client?Topic provided by client as a parameter which will be injected into our environment and used for asynchronous requests sent back to client.To be supplied by cient
2What topic to use for private DMI-NCMP?

Contact Fiachra Corcoran regarding ONAP conventions.

Response was that there aren't any conventions to speak of but we would use dashes (i.e. my-new-topic) instead of dot notation (i.e. my.new.topic) for topic name

ncmp-async-m2m

3Are adding a new REST endpoint for async or modifying an existing endpoint?

To facilitate asynchronous requests to DMI we will need to either create a new endpoint or modify existing endpoint to include /async flag. The second solution may not be backwards compatible. However creating a new endpoint solely for a flag is also not ideal. We could add async to list of options (but this might interfere with the purpose of /options.

Additionally, considered adding a new endpoint for async which simply re-routes the response to the original endpoint while adding the logic for OK response to the client. However, would this lead to a change in the schema? If so, would this be backwards compatible?

6Should we create a standalone app to demo or are tests sufficient?

CSIT tests may require more involved effort - perhaps we could add standalone app to nexus and use it as part of CSIT test?

Async Request Option using Messaging

11Do we actually require futures in this implementation proposal?

It could be argued that the need for futures is made redundant by the fact we call dmi from ncmp through rest and the response will be consumed via Kafka.

What benefit would future give us in this case? 

Not needed
12ID GenerationWhich mechanism to use? Look at CPS-Temporal and follow to keep consistencySee: https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/CPS-821+Spike%3A+Support+Async+read-write+operations+on+CPS-NCMP+interface#CPS821Spike:SupportAsyncreadwriteoperationsonCPSNCMPinterface-CanRobotFrameworkverifyKafkaEvents
13Can robot framework verify if Kafka events have been sent/received

This would be less work and overhead (rather than creating/.maintaining client app)

Will need to verify if 3PP libraries are safe to introduce into codebase. If so, what is the process? Do they need to be FOSSed?

Integration testing should be carried out by a client of NCMP. Demo can be performed up the point NCMP produces message for the client.
14Can Webflux do this work with less code/impl?Sourabh Sourabh suggested using this to compliment our existing approach. By adding webflux we add an event loop to synchronize and access I/O connections to the database.No, It will compliment the design by adding an event loop for I/O synchronization and access. See: CPS-850
15ONAP may be deprecating PLAINTEXT for Kafka. Strimzi Kafka might need to be usedNo relevant information could be found relating to this. See: https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/CPS-821+Spike%3A+Support+Async+read-write+operations+on+CPS-NCMP+interface#CPS821Spike:SupportAsyncreadwriteoperationsonCPSNCMPinterface-KafkaStrimziInvestigation

The underlying implementation won't be affected. The config will contain relevant configuration for protocol (e.g. PLAINTEXT, SASL) and connections. 

This information needs to be made configurable when implementing.
