• Proposed name for the project: Image Manager

Project description:

Image Manager provides a reliable, logically centralized image, user-friendly image management for ONAP at both design time and run time. The managed objects include VM images, Docker images and software packages. By using image manager, ONAP users can upload images to ONAP system, manage images via Image Manager portal and distribute images to target VIMs on demand.

• Usability:

ONAP

...

modules can't get the image information easily at both the design time and run time because images are scattered in the VIMs. Image Manager addresses this problem by providing a centralized image catalog view and APIs for the other modules to access image information.

• Manageability:

It’s very hard for ONAP user to figure out what images have been used by ONAP systems platform or uploaded to the VIMs managed by the ONAP system. Image Manager addresses this challenge by providing a UI portal for ONAP user to manage images, including browse/upload/update/delete/distribute images.

• Performance:

Currently, If an image needs to be uploaded to multiple VIMs, it has to be done separately and manually via the VIM portals. Image manager addresses this issue by providing a centralized view and the images can be distributed to multiple VIMs via the Image Manager portal, which is more efficient.

Scope:

• Provide logically centralized management for images used by ONAP system, which includes VM image, Docker image, and application package.
• Provide APIs to upload images to ONAP system.
• Provide APIs to access the image catalog and image information in ONAP system.
• Provide a UI portal in which the ONAP user can upload/update/delete/distribute images.
