Overview
This is an expansion to a previous contribution made
Abstract
This proposal is to add dynamic checks within SDC to (1) Query a certification repository such as OVP to what certification a VNF has undergone and (2) invoke VTP to run custom Ad-hoc testing (checks) compliance and validation tests against VSP (VNF) prior accepting the VSP (VNF).
...
Those checks can be done during the VSP validation stage by implementing plug-ins to SDC and introducing both a "certification repository" and a testing framework to be consulted. Figure 1 shows the proposal in a high-level view.
Figure 1: High-Level proposal.
...
As outlined in the Rationale section above, integrating these checks into SDC will allow queries to VTP and the OVP portal as well as to third-party repositories. Thus the APIs will be designed to interoperate SDC with that range of end-points. In order to meet the Dublin release schedule for the development of plug-ins and APIs, a registry is planned to be implemented as a discrete hosted component outside ONAP. Integration to VTP and OVP portal can be performed when those environments are ready.
