- Multi-Cloud Policy Framework
- Assist OOF in target cloud region selection for VNF placement (aka homing) by summarizing cloud-specific capability, capacity & cost metrics (e.g. anti-affinity for VMs in a VNF could have different cost in different clouds)
- Dynamically modify the cloud specific VNF deployment template based on cloud-specific realization of the specified intent – No impact to VNF configuration
- E.g. Anti-affinity Infrastructure High Availability for VMs within a VNF could have different realizations across different clouds
- Intent Support
- Single realization option per Cloud Region for the specified Intent
- Major Impact Projects:
- Multi-Cloud (Highest), OOF
- Minor Impact Projects:
- A&AI, SO
- End-to-end use case demonstration:
- vCPE, 5G, vCPE?
Phase 2 Summary (Build on Phase 1 Work):
- Multi-Cloud Policy Framework
- Dynamically modify the cloud specific VNF deployment template based on cloud-specific realization of the specified intent – Impact to VNF configuration
- E.g. High performance Intra-DC data plane networking with several realization choices
- Dynamically modify the cloud specific VNF deployment template based on cloud-specific realization of the specified intent – Impact to VNF configuration
- Intent Support
- Multiple realization options per Cloud Region for the specified Intent
- Major Impact Projects:
- Multi-Cloud
- Minor Impact Projects:
- OOF, GNF Controller

SO impact:
...
- IP address allocation for VNFs
- Setting up tunnel connection for vCPE
...
- SO to update A&AI with service information (first step in service creation)
- Multi-Cloud to update A&AI resource information
