- Feedback from the LFN DTF Event:
- CNFs
- EMCO/ONAP Alignment
- There are clearly two profiles. Not clear how to make progress on both
- Issue with profile #2 - How to use the policy functionality of ONAP, without the inventory components.
- Seshu Kumar Mudiganti - We should go to the next level of details on the integration points between ONAP and EMCO - We need a simple use case.
- What use case should we start with? We should find a use case that demonstrates the value of the integrated solution. It should showcases functionality that is not available with ONAP-only or EMCO-only.
- Seshu Kumar Mudiganti - Who is responsible to turn the wishlists to implementation? Who will take responsibility?
- Lukasz Rajewski - What is the right motivation for profile #2? Is it to make the solution lightweight? Is it to address edge use cases?
- Vishal Sharma - Initial use case UDC on a single cluster or multiple clusters. Might be on-prem (OpenShift) cloud or public cloud. Lukasz Rajewski - Deployment on public cloud might require EMCO, as it is not currently supported by ONAP. Seshu Kumar Mudiganti - No guarantee upfront that the UDC will work out of the box. Experience shows it might require some tweaking. Seshu Kumar Mudiganti - Suggests to start with ONAP-only, then identify gaps where EMCO may be useful.
- Vishal Sharma - Slicing scenarios might require multiple clouds, which calls for EMCO. Lukasz Rajewski If 3GPP slice API are required, they are not provided by EMCO. ONAP does provide this API.
- Vishal Sharma - Mentioned the AMCOP solution from Aarna Networks, that uses EMCO API for 5G Core deployment, and ONAP CDS for Day-1/2 configuration.
- Vishal Sharma - How can ASD be used today? Especially when ETSI is still working on specifications? Marian Darula - There is documentation and on-going PoC. Byung-Woo Jun is the main contact person for more information. On-boarding and deployment are expected to be completed in the Jakarta time frame. PoC wiki space - ASD-Based CNF Orchestration PoC
- Vishal Sharma - Will provide future updates on his progress using the CNF Taskforce mailing list, wiki, or meeting.
- Next Steps
- Requirements workgroup signup page - https://wiki.lfnetworking.org/display/LN/Requirements+and+Use+Case+Advisory+Group
- We need to convey the message of choosing pragmatic use cases, and have people willing to back them up with implementation.
- Decision on new meeting time
- Starting next week the meeting will be at 13:00 UTC
- Are we good with ASD Information model? What are the next steps?
- No immediate blockers.
- @thinh - There is a planned workshop with ETSI today. At the moment there is no plan for further workshops
