About ONAP Optimization Framework (OOF)

The OOF provides a policy-driven and model-driven framework for creating optimization applications for a broad range of use cases. It is being developed based on the following core ideas:

  1. Most optimization problems can be solved in a declarative manner using a high-level modeling language.
  2. Recent advances in open source optimization platforms allow the solution process to be mostly solver-independent.
  3. By leveraging the library of standard/global constraints, optimization models can be rapidly developed.
  4. By developing a focused set of platform components, we can realize a policy-driven, declarative system that allows ONAP optimization applications be composed rapidly and managed easily
    1. Policy and data adapters
    2. Execution and management environment
    3. Curated "knowledge base" and recipes to provide information on typical optimization examples and how to use the OOF 
  5. More importantly, by providing a way to support both "traditional" optimization applications and model-driven applications, we can provide a choice for users to adapt the platform based on their business needs and skills/expertise.

Initial deliverables of OOF for Beijing Release (Q1 2018) are:

  1. Homing and Allocation Service (HAS): OOF-HAS is n policy-driven placement optimizing service (or homing service) that allows ONAP to deploy services automatically across multiple sites and multiple clouds. More details are at the main page of Homing and Allocation Service (HAS)

  2. ONAP Optimization Service Design Framework (OSDF). More details are the main page of Optimization Service Design Framework

Getting Started with OOF

  1. If you are not familiar with OOF, please start off with the following documentation

    1. Overview of the OOF approach (model driven declarative framework)
    2. Original ONAP-OF Project Proposal (6/20/17)
    3. Homing and Allocation Service (HAS)
    4. OOF Beijing M1 Release Planning (Release in Q1 2018)
    5. Policy Specification and Retrieval for OOF
    6. ONAP Optimization Framework Project Page (this landing page)

  2. Please fill out a short survey to help the planning process of the Beijing release (and later). Using these data, we can reach out for help with specific tasks, and even figure out what times are good to schedule a phone call. 

    1. The link for the survey is here: https://api.socrative.com/rc/rqatEZ. It is a very short (six questions, three of which are related to contact info and available times; and takes about one to five minutes). 

    2. Likewise, there is a link to a doodle poll on preferred times for meetings (https://doodle.com/poll/457bkisaaahe55ny). We have contributors from US (Eastern to Pacific), India, China, and even Australia. The doodle poll link contains only those daytime windows that overlap across US-EST, US-PST, India, and China time zones due to the high probability of being selected. 

  3. Get a Linux Foundation ID – you can use this to edit the wiki, use JIRA for bug reports/tasks, and use gerrit for code reviews and commits. For more information, see ONAP's main page on Joining the Community and covers the following items:

    1. Get a Linux Foundation Identity from the Linux Foundation Portal

    2. Join Relevant Mailing Lists: Recommended one is onap-discuss (by emailing to onap-discuss-join@lists.onap.org)

    3. Have the general ONAP contacts handy: https://wiki.onap.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=8226539

  4. Join Weekly Meetings of OOF (currently Monday 11am - 12 noon Eastern); zoom meeting at: https://zoom.us/j/704981574

  5. Become familiar with the steps required to contribute code and documentation via gerrit. 
    1. The ONAP page Developing ONAP is a great place to start, and covers the following items:
      1. Configuring Gerrit (code reviews, commits): https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/Configuring+Gerrit
      2. Developer Best Practices: https://wiki.onap.org/display/DW/Developer+Best+Practices

  6. Dive in by looking at relevant JIRA Epics, Stories, and Issues. For OOF, the link is: https://jira.onap.org/projects/OPTFRA/issues/OPTFRA-76?filter=allissues

    1. Check the currently active tasks and backlogs. You can sign up for specific tasks or reach out to one of the committers to assign you the task. The link for the Agile Board is here: https://jira.onap.org/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?projectKey=OPTFRA&rapidView=99

    2. Link to backlogs (tasks that need to be done) is here: Link to backlogs: https://jira.onap.org/secure/RapidBoard.jspa?rapidView=99&projectKey=OPTFRA&view=planning.nodetail

Approved Project Proposal

Weekly Meeting schedule:

Monday 11am-12 EST/UTC-5; ONAP Meeting 3; Zoom meeting: https://zoom.us/j/704981574; Meeting ID: 704 981 574


Release Planning

A Release

  • No deliverables. 

B Release

The deliverables for OOF in Beijing release is planned to be

1. Homing and Allocation Service (HAS), a policy driven placement and resource allocation service to allow deployment of services and VNFs on a multi-site, multi-VIM infrastructure.

2. Optimization Service Design Framework, a  model-driven framework for creating optimization applications similar to HAS, CMSO, etc., and a runtime environment for managing these. 

C Release
