To facilitate asynchronous requests to DMI we will need to either create a new endpoint or modify existing endpoint to include /async flag. The second solution may not be backwards compatible. However creating a new endpoint solely for a flag is also not ideal. We could add async to list of options (but this might interfere with the purpose of /options.

Additionally, considered adding a new endpoint for async which simply re-routes the response to the original endpoint while adding the logic for OK response to the client. However, would this lead to a change in the schema? If so, would this be backwards compatible?

#IssueNotes/JiraDecision
1What topic to use for client?Topic provided by client as a parameter which will be injected into our environment and used for asynchronous requests sent back to client.To be supplied by cient
2What topic to use for private DMI-NCMP?

e.g. ncmp-async-private but decision needs to be made with current best practices.

Contact Fiachra Corcoran regarding ONAP conventions.

Response was that there aren't any conventions to speak of but we would use dashes (i.e. my-new-topic) instead of dot notation (i.e. my.new.topic) for topic name

Proposed:

High-level Steps/Possible Tickets:

...

  Update: Toine Siebelink had a conversation with Tony Finnerty it has been agreed CPS is to configure a (temporary) dedicated client-topic as final destination for the async replies: we now want to propose to use a common ‘cps-broadcast’ topic which also will used for broadcasting messages like cm handles being added o removed etc.

Still it is only a temporary solution until the client have a better way of declaring their own topics. It does not affect our proposed interfaces, just the name of the topic that will be accepted by NCMP (for now)

 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Update: After discussion with Fiachra Corcoran regarding Kafka-strimzi it has been agreed that we will define a topic for client responses in advance (defined upfront). After release K it is envisioned that auto creation of topics will be disbaled by default thus the client will have to use our predefined topic.

Integration testing should be carried out by a client of NCMP. Demo can be performed up the point NCMP produces message for the client.

15ONAP may be deprecating PLAINTEXT for Kafka. Strimzi Kafka might need to be usedNo relevant information could be found relating to this.

The underlying implementation won't be affected. The config will contain relevant configuration for protocol (e.g. PLAINTEXT, SASL) and connections. 

This information needs to be made configurable when implementing.

16Should we have something like the message count in the response or an indication of the last message at least.?

On the topic=Xyz async analysis, One item I forgot to mention was when a client might know when they have received the last response message for a request.  

If async there may be many responses (otherwise there's no need for async) 

Therefore should it not have something like the message count in it or an indication of the last message at least. 

This is another step in an evolution of the product. Multiple response messages might become a necessity for asycnc bulk operations and maybe that is when we can discuss it in more detail. I don’t think it has to affect our current implementation additional field to handle that can always be added in a backward compatible way.

17Do we need Kafka messaging between DMI and NCMP?This was discussed as it was argued that the client and CPS ecosystem is decoupled and async using only bus between ncmp and client. However, this would not rectify blocking calls between ncmp and dmi.It was decided to have two separate kafka topics for client → ncmp & ncmp → dmi

Async: NCMP Rest impl. including Request ID generation

AC Points : 

2. cm handle does not exists

3. No DMI registration for CM Handle

AC point 2 : We agreed to check only if cm handle exists. If cm does not exists will get Http status 404 as below.

{
    "status": "404 NOT_FOUND",
    "message": "DataNode not found",
    "details": "DataNode with xpath /dmi-registry/cm-handles[@id='my-cm-handle1'] was not found for anchor ncmp-dmi-registry and dataspace NCMP-Admin."
}

AC point 3 . Is not valid.

High-level Steps/Possible Tickets:

  1. Modify REST endpoint to include param topic (1)
  2. Add logic to send response and request (2a)
  3. Send request if async is implemented or NotSupportedException if not (2b
  4. Add producer to DMI (implementation and config) (31 & 3b)
  5. Add consumer to NCMP (implementation and config) (4a)
  6. Add Producer to NCMP (implementation and config) (4b)
  7. Demo & Test (5)


Alternative Approaches


#PersonApproach
1

[Relates to point 3 from high-level steps]

It would be good to have async implementation only dependent on NCMP. So that it does not break or work with only few DMI plugins. 
I think a DMI plugin independent async flow would be like 
1. Once request is received, check if  dmi plugin exist. If exists, generate request uuid, send the message to the Kafka topic (or store it in DB), and send an accepted response back to client.
2. NCMP will listen to the same topic or read from the DB. Process it by calling appropriate DMI Plugins synchronously. After it receives the response back, it sends to to Kafka topic provided in the input by user. 

In this implementation, we are not dependent on the DMI implementation. 
We do need persistence for storing async request. It can be a stored in DB or Kafka, it does not matter as long as we can read it in the same order. 

The main points are
1. No dependency on the DMI for async behavior

2. No async request get lost because of pod restart or JVM crash.

NCMP standard event schema

Event payload schema as per org.onap.ncmp:async-request-response-event:v1

Response payload schema.  The payload schema is an onap one if non-passthrough but may be either an onap published or other (oran, proprietary, etc) schema if the original call received by the dmi plugin is a ncmp:passthrough-*.


SCOPE OF THE WORK :  the black highlighted parts of the above events. 
The blue highlight is not in current scope.  The blue bits will be up to the dmi plugins.
In the future these blue bits may become part of the standard onap base release.

Kafka config & Implementation

...

Source: https://docs.spring.io/spring-framework/docs/current/reference/html/web-reactive.html

Pros & cons

ProsCons
  • Better scalability due to non blocking threads
  • Use less threads (1 per core)
  • Better CPU Efficiency
  • Reactive web programming is great for applications that have streaming data, and clients that consume it and stream it to their users. It ain’t great for developing CRUD apps. If you want to develop a CRUD API, stick with Spring MVC.

  • Steep learning curve in the shift to non-blocking, functional, and declarative programming

Kafka Strimzi Investigation

...

Could not find relevant information for ONAP strimzi but there is a PoC to move CPS to Strimzi:

Jira

serverId425b2b0a-557c-3c0c-b515-579789cceedb
keyDMAAP-1681

Can Robot Framework verify Kafka Events?

...

Jira
serverONAP Jira
serverId425b2b0a-557c-3c0c-b515-579789cceedb
keyCPS-834

To facilitate demo and testing of this functionality a new standalone app will be required to act as client.

...

For a demo it will be sufficient to show that the response is being produced on the client topic.

The client should conduct integration testing.
