Use Case Overview & Description
The goal here is to enhance the ONAP CNF platform to support 1) Application Service Descriptor (ASD) CNF modeling specification, packaging, onboarding, design and orchestration. The PoC requirements want to prove how the ONAP platform does support ASD-aligned CNF provisioning, installation, configuration, update and monitoring.
ASD Specification and Packaging Goals
ASD is a common, simplified deployment descriptor for ONAP, O-RAN (NFs, xApps and rApps) aiming to:
- Quickly leverage enhancements in Kubernetes while minimizing development and integration efforts
- Avoid duplication of attributes/properties included in Helm Charts
- Descriptor format is not requiring a particular deployment tool(e.g., Helm)
- Leverage established packaging standards (e.g., SOL004 with ASD as a top-level deployment artifact)
ASD PoC Goals for Jakarta
- ASD onboarding to SDC, including:
- Allow SDC designers to customize/add custom properties ? e.g., defining input parameters, adding custom properties...
- Store original vendor packages
- Store enhanced ASD descriptors
- Transforming onboarding ASD packages into internal ASD model
- Proposal: use the ASD model as SDC internal model
- SDC Resource and Service Design with ASD-aligned CNF resources
- SDC distribution to ONAP Runtime components
- Store enhanced/internal ASD Descriptors in Catalog Manager
- Store Helm Charts in Helm Chart Repository
- Store Images in Image Repository
- Model-driven Orchestration for ASD-aligned models
- Dispatch workflows (CNF Manager) based on models and requests
- Demonstrate how ASD, input parameters and Helm Charts are processed by the CNF Manager
- Resolve K8 resources based on input parameters and Cloud Artifacts
- Get placement decisions by leveraging ONAP platform capabilities
- Deploy ASD-aligned CNF to Kubernetes

BUSINESS DRIVER
Executive Summary - We would like to enhance the ONAP orchestration platform to support ASD-aligned modeling and pacaking onboarding, design, distribution, deployment and configuration.
Business Impact - Enables operators and service providers to design and onboard their CNF models and packaging, and to orchestrate their CNFs by leveraging open-source cloud native tools
Business Markets - All operators and service providers that are using ONAP for CNF automation.
Funding/Financial Impacts - Reduction in operations expense from using simplified CNF modeling and standard packaging. Reduction in capital expense from vendors using a simplified modeling and standard packaging methodology.
Organization Mgmt, Sales Strategies - There is no additional organizational management or sales strategies for this requirement outside of a service providers "normal" ONAP deployment and its attendant organizational resources from a service provider.
