E2E Network Slicing (a new E2E use case for Frankfurt, we'd also like to apply to publish a separate Blueprint White Paper for E2E Network Slicing use case, same as the community did for other use cases in every release) | 5G Network Slicing is one of the key features of 5G. The essence of Network Slicing is in sharing network resources (PNFs, VNFs, CNFs) while satisfying widely varying and sometimes seemingly contradictory requirements to different customers in an optimal manner. Same network is expected to provide different Quality of Experience to different consumers, use case categories and industry verticals including factory automation, connected home, autonomous vehicles, smart cities, remote healthcare, in-stadium experience and rural broadband. An End-to-End Network Slice consists of RAN, Transport and Core network slice sub-nets. This Use Case intends to demonstrate the modeling, orchestration and assurance of a simple network slice (e.g. eMBB). While 3GPP standards are evolving and 5G RAN and core are being realized, this Use Case will start with realizing an E2E Network Slice with a simple example of a 5G RAN, Core and Transport Network Slice sub-nets. It will also align with relevant standard bodies (e.g., 3GPP, ETSI, TM Forum) as well as other open initiatives such as O-RAN where relevant, with respect to both interfaces as well as the functional aspects. Key features in Frankfurt:
Key capabilities added for ONAP Frankfurt release:
This use case is a multi release effort and we will continue to provide more enhancements and features based on what we've implemented in Frankfurt in the subsequent releases. |

CCVPN | Adding two extension functions / sub use cases for Frankfurt.

BBS | In Frankfurt, the BBS team focused mainly on bug fixes, improving the BBS use case multi-vendor support and documentation. This is based on feedback received from many showcases during the previous ONAP releases. The BBS use case continues providing inputs to standardization bodies like BBF (Broadband Forum) in the context of the CloudCO framework interfaces definition. | 1.
