• Current solutions for state-management of  ONAP components like MariaDB clustering, that work very effectively within a site, may not scale across geo-distributed sites (e.g., Beijing, Amsterdam and Irvine) or allow partitioned operation (thereby compromising availability). This is mainly because WAN latencies are much higher across sites and frequent network partitions can occur.

• ONAP components often have a diverse range of requirements in terms of state replication. While some components need to synchronously manage state across replicas, others may tolerate asynchronous replication. This diversity needs to be leveraged to provide better performance and higher availability across sites.

• ONAP components often need to partition state across different replicas, perform consistent operations on them and ensure that on failover, the new owner has access to the latest state. The distributed protocols to achieve such consistent ownership is complex and replete with corners cases, especially in the face of network partitions. Currently, each component is building its own handcrafted solution which is  wasteful and worse, can be erroneous.

In this project, we identify common state management concerns across ONAP components and provide a multi-site state coordination/management service (MUSIC) with a rich suite of recipes that each ONAP component can simply configure and use for their state-management needs.

Functionality:

At its core, MUSIC provides a scalable sharded eventually-consistent data-store (Cassandra) wherein the access to the keys can be protected using a locking service (built on Zookeeper) that is tightly coupled with the data-store. ONAP components can use the MUSIC API directly to store and access their state across geo-distributed sites.  This API enables ONAP components to achieve fine-grained flexible consistency on their state.

MUSIC also provides a rich set of recipes (mdbc, prom, musicCAS, musicQ) that ONAP components can use to build multi-site active-active state-management solutions:
