Policy | - Improvements to CLAMP Automation Composition Management (ACM)
CLAMP ACM is improved to allow much more flexibility in the specification and life cycle management of rApps. ACM can manage the lifecycle of rApps made up of an arbitrary number of microservices and rules/learning models/schemas in the form of metadata. In the London release, the state machine is improved to allow priming of rApp types, and to support deploymeent/undeployment and locking/unlocking of rApps. Update of the properties of rApps is also supported at run time. In addition, ITU Recommendation X.731 is now supported for state reporting from rApp microservices. Metadata driven API Generation Up until now, the Policy Framework components used handwritten code to implement their REST interfaces and the Swagger 2 API documentation was generated from annotations in the code. From the London release on, the REST API code is generated from OpenAPI 3.0 (Swagger 3.0) documents. In addition, the API documentation is substantially enhanced. See the Policy Offered APIs in the documentation. Improved Metrics and SLAs The metrics generated by the Policy Framework have been substantially improved for the London release. In addition to gathering metrics on REST call performance and policy deployment and execution time, we have defined SLA values for these metrics. We have implemented automated tests that run as part of the CSIT testing that ensure the SLAs are complied with. Improved Testing Testing is much improved in the London release. S3P tests have been automated and run as CSIT tests Automated tests to verify SLA compliance using prometheus metrics are added A suite of contract tests is provided for each REST API Tests now use http rather than https
