...

At this writing, APPC will not be contributing to any new use cases in Beijingcases .

The Change Management use case is workig working with SDNC for an L3 device firmware upgrade (; however, note that APPC will be adding capability to do an in-place software upgrade for a VNF)There is no impact for APPC as part of HPA use case at this point.

Discussions are still taking place around the manual Scaling use case; however, no definitive outcome at this stage due to lack of resources.

Minimum Viable Product

Describe the MVP for this release.

...

The long term road map is to achieve all the goals outlined in the approved project proposal; to be fully model and standards driven, be agnostics and make no assumptions about the network. Support configuration and lifecyle management of VNF/VNFC in a generic fashion so that on-boarding any new VNF/VNFC is just a matter of configuration and data. Additional long term goal is to align to the controller architecture Longer term items include:

  • Automated scaling
  • Support beyond Openstack and move to an adaptor type architecture so that multiple types of clouds can be supported with little effort
  • Align to the controller architecture proposed as part of ONAP by the architecture team.

ONAP Dependencies

<TO DO: Separate standard dependencies as part of ONAP architecture vs. what are the "new" functions/changes needed in support of Beijing>

List the other ONAP projects you depend on.

APPC interacts and has dependencies depends on the the following components as part of the general ONAP architectarchitecture:

  • SDC: Rest based interface exposed by SDC. APPC receives notifications from SDC on VNF information. SDC team provides an SDC Listener, which is used by APPC.
  • AAI: APPC retrieves and updates VNF data from/to AAI.
  • DMaaP: Message bus for communication with other components in the solution (SDC, DCAE, MSO, Portal, OOM)
  • CCSDK - APPC currently gets ODL & DB package from CCSDK; CCSDK and APPC currently must align on ODL version. 
  • AAF - AAF is used for authentication of APIsAAF is used for authentication of APIs
  • MultiVIM - APPC can access Openstack via MultiVIM or CPD-PAL. MultiVIM is optional for APPC at this stage.

For the Beijing release, APPC has dependencies on the following two projects to deliver updated componentsthree projects for specific deliverables:

  • CCSDK /SDNC - - Nitrogen ODL and MariaDB dockersdocker
  • SDNC -  MariaDB docker
  • AAF - feature AAF-91 - needed to address API level security

...

Anyone reading this section should have a good understanding of all the interacting modules.

Platform Maturity

Refering to CII Badging Security Program and Platform Maturity Requirements, fill out the table below by indicating the actual level , the targeted level for the current release and the evidences on how you plan to achieve the targeted level.

AreaActual LevelTargeted Level for current ReleaseHow, EvidencesComments
Performance0TBD0Awaiting guidance from Benchmark subcommittee
  • 0 -- none
  • 1 – baseline performance criteria identified and measured
  • 2 & 3 – performance improvement plans created & implemented

APPC will do a 72 hr soak test

We assume integration team will do a 72 hour soak test at the platform level.

  • 0 – none
  • 1 – 72 hours component level soak w/random transactions
  • 2 – 72 hours platform level soak w/random transactions
  • 3 – 6 months track record of reduced defect rate

Clarification was provided by Jason Hunt that Level 1 is  manual failure detection and recovery within a single site.

APPC leverages CCSDK/SDNC distributions of OpenDaylight and DB. We will work closely with CCSDK/SDNC team to leverage what they are doing and not duplicate effort.

CCSDK indicates Level 2 support, so Level 2 will be a stretch goal for APPC at this stage until we have a better understanding of dependency.

  • 0 – none
  • 1 – manual failure and recovery (< 30 minutes)
  • 2 – automated detection and recovery (single site)
  • 3 – automated detection and recovery (geo redundancy)
Security01We will target 50% Sonar coverage for Beijing and  completing complete the Passing badge Survey.
  • 0 – none
  • 1 – CII Passing badge + 50% Test Coverage
  • 2 – CII Silver badge; internal communication encrypted; role-based access control and authorization for all calls
  • 3 – CII Gold
Scalability11

APPC uses ODL distribution from CCSDK project.

Scaling is a function of ODL capabilities - adding nodes to an existing cluster or adding a new cluster. capabilities - APPC can be scaled either by adding additional OpenDaylight containers and/or database containers, or by deploying multiple instances of APPC cluster.

  • 0 – no ability to scale
  • 1 – single site horizontal scaling
  • 2 – geographic scaling
  • 3 – scaling across multiple ONAP instances
Manageability11APPC supports/integrates EELF.
  • 1 – single logging system across components; instantiation in < 1 hour
  • 2 – ability to upgrade a single component; tracing across components; externalized configuration management
Usability11Documentation is already available on readthedocs. It will be updated for Beijing as needed.
  • 1 – user guide; deployment documentation; API documentation
  • 2 – UI consistency; usability testing; tutorial documentation
