The scope of Multi-VIM/Cloud project is a plugable and extensible framework that

  1. provides a Multi-VIM/loud Cloud Mediation Layer which includes the following functional modules
    1. Provider Registry to register infrastructure site/location/region and their attributes and capabilities in A&AI
    2. Infra Resource to manage resource request (compute, storage and memory) from SO, DCAE, or other ONAP components, so as to get VM created and VNF instantiated at the right infrastructure
    3. SDN Overlay to configure overlay network via local SDN controllers for the corresponding cloud infrastructure
    4. VNF Resource LCM to perform VM lifecycle management as requested by VNFM (APP-C or VNF-C)
    5. FCAPS to report infrastructure resource metrics (utilization, availability, health, performance) to DCAE Collectors for Close Loop Remediation
  2. provides a common northbound interface (NBI) / Multi-Cloud APIs of the functional modules to be consumed by SO, SDN-C, APP-C, VF-C, DCAE etc.
  3. provides a common abstraction model
  4. provides the ability to
    1. handle differences in models
    2. generate or extend NBI based on the functional model of underlying infrastructure
    3. implement adapters for different providers.
