Instantiating Services

The Portal offers a Virtual Instantiation Deployment (VID) GUI to trigger MSO SO instantiation of Services and components that have been certified and distributed for production. These services may include:

• Infrastructure Services (such as compute and storage resources)
• Network Services (Virtual Network Functions)
• Application Services (such as a load-balancing function)

VID reads the models created in SDC, and, in turn, forwards the appropriate information to MSO SO during the Service instantiation process.

See the Installing and Running the ONAP Demos page for a scenario that uses the VID interface.
