The overall objective is to keep the items in the descriptor to the bare minimum information, and not duplicate any attributes that might be instead extracted from the Helm Charts. This helps maintain the principle that Helm Charts are the primary deployment artifact for a containerized application and avoids any possible source of error or confusion that such duplication would cause.

Attribute

Type

Description

asdId

M

1

Identifier

Identifier of this ASD information element. This attribute shall be globally unique. The format will be defined in the data model specification phase.

asdSchemaVersion

M

1

Version

Specifies the version of the ASD’s schema (if we modify an ASD field definition, add/remove field definitions, etc.).

asdProvider

M

1

String

Provider of the AS and of the ASD.

asdApplicationName

M

1

String

Name to identify the Application Service. Invariant for the AS lifetime.

asdApplicationVersion

M

1

Version

Specifies the version of the Application (so, if software,

DeploymentArtifacts , ASD values, ... change, this changes).

asdApplicationInfoName

OM

0..1

String

Human readable name for the Application service. Can change during the AS lifetime.

asdInfoDescription

OM

0..1

String

Human readable description of the AS. Can change during the AS lifetime.

asdExtCpd

OM

0..N

Tbddatatype.ExtCpd

Describes external interface(s) exposed by this AS enabling connection with a VL. (Similar to VnfExtCpd on VNF-D, but only describing L3 and above interfaces, since K8S can’t do <L3the externally exposed connection points of the application.

enhancedClusterCapabilities

datatype. enhancedClusterCapabilities

A list of  Describes expected capabilities of the target Kubernetes cluster to aid placement of the application service on a suitable cluster. Examples of capabilities are required networking characteristics, Kubernetes API extensions or quantifiable node specific resources. This attribute can contain information complementing information provided in the referenced DeploymentArtifacts.Note: Modeling of enhancedClusterCapabilities is subject to standardization but is ffs. Alignment between O2-IMS and O2-DMS of these values is required.

deploymentItems

M

1..N

DeploymentItem

Deployment artifacts (see next table)


The initial attributes essentially describe the application – a unique identifier, a schema version (that enables versioning the data model of the descriptor itself), and basic metadata, like application name and version and human-readable descriptive fields.

...

Finally, “deploymentItems” is a list of deployment items, i.e. Helm Charts, that together can deploy an application. The table below shows the information element of these deployment item descriptors.

deploymentOrder
