- Conforms to ETSI IFA 011, 029 and 040.
- Those specifications would be available by end of June / July 2020, but their SOL specifications plan to be available by end of 2020 or Q1, 2021.
- Until then, ONAP designs CNF models and packages, based on the current IFA 029 and 040 (it is an assumption).
- A Managed Container Infrastructure Object (MCIO) is an abstract NFV object for OS Container management and orchestration.
- The declarative MCIO descriptor is used as descriptor object interpreted by the CISM.
- A MCIO is created by the CISM by allocating its requested infrastructure resources on Container Infrastructure Service (CIS) instances
- Depending on its type, the creation of a MCIO may include the deployment of an OS Container Image.
- MCIO’s are lifecycle managed via change requests on their desired state, utilizing a modified declarative descriptor sent to the CISM, which adapts the
- infrastructure resource allocations according to the changed infrastructure resource requests.
- MCIO’s requesting compute and/or storage infrastructure resources are modeled as a VNF Component (VNFC).
- Properties of the MCIO’s relevant to be exposed to NFV-MANO.
