Infrastructure Modelling: ONAP R3+ Cloud Infrastructure Modeling; Cloud Infrastructure Aggregate Representation Classes

MULTICLOUD-153 - Getting issue details... STATUS

ONAP Component	Life Cycle Phase	Enhancements
Multi-Cloud	Deploy	Support Distributed Cloud Infrastructure Capability Discovery (Note 1, Note 2)
A&AI	Deploy	Support Standardized Distributed Cloud Infrastructure Object Hierarchy & Capability Database (Ref. 1) Loose coupling between HW objects (private cloud) and SW objects (private and public clouds) Includes Standardized Capabilities across clouds & Capabilities unique to certain clouds Note: Multi-Cloud Distributed Cloud Infrastructure Capability Discovery process will populate the aforementioned database
OOF	Deploy	Execute Distributed Cloud Infrastructure Placement Policies for Optimized Service/VNF Placement across Cloud Regions (Note 3, Note 4)
SO	Deploy	Extend SO ↔ OOF API to support data opaque to SO (Note 5) Extend SO ↔ MC API to support data opaque to SO (Note 6)

Assumption for Policy, SO, OOF:

This uses the current Generic VNF workflow in SO

Note 1:

Configured Capacity and Utilized (or Currently Used) Capacity are managed by the specific cloud.

Note 2:

Cloud SW Capability example
- Cloud region "x" with SR-IOV, GPU, Min-guarantee support
- Cloud region "y" with SR-IOV support
Cloud HW Capability example
- Resource cluster "xa" in Cloud region "x" with SR-IOV and GPU support
- Resource cluster "xb" in Cloud region "x" with GPU support
- Resource cluster "ya" in Cloud region "y" with SR-IOV support

Note 3:

5G Service/VNF placement example
- Constraints used by Optimization Framework (OOF)
  - 5G CU-UP VNF location to be fixed to a specific physical DC based on 5G DU, bounded by a max distance from 5G DU
- Optimization Policy used by OOF
  - Choose optimized cloud region (or instance) for the placement of 5G CU UP for subscriber group based on the above constraints

Note 4:

For the 5G Service/VNF placement example in Note 3
- 5G CU-UP VNF preferably maps to a specific Cloud region & Physical DC End Point

Note 5:

For the 5G Service/VNF placement example in Note 3
- OOF will pass the Physical DC End Point to SO as a opaque data

Note 6:

For the 5G Service/VNF placement example in Note 3
- SO passes the Physical DC End Point to Multi-Cloud as a opaque data, besides the Cloud Region

Cloud-agnostic Placement/Networking & Homing Policies (Phase 1 - Casablanca MVP, Phase 2 - Stretch Goal)

End-to-end use case Applicability:

All (especially the data plane VNFs with fine-grained VNF placement and high performance networking requirements)

Value:

Improve "workload deployability" by avoiding exposure of "cloud specific" capabilities to several ONAP components and addressing "separation of concerns"
Applicable to all workloads - VM-based or Container-based

MULTICLOUD-272 - Getting issue details... STATUS

Phase 1 (Casablanca MVP) Summary:

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. VMs could have different cost in different clouds, Infra High Availability (HA) for VMs in a VNF could have different cost in different clouds)
  - Cloud Agnostic Intent (Policy) Execution Workflow - Steps 1- 6
- Dynamically modify the cloud specific VNF deployment template based on cloud-specific realization of the specified intent (e.g. Infra HA for VMs within a VNF could have different realizations across different clouds)
  - Cloud Agnostic Intent (Policy) Execution Workflow - Step 7
Intent Support
- Single realization option per Cloud Region for the specified Intent
Impact Projects:
- Multi-Cloud (Highest), OOF, SO (Minimal)
End-to-end use case demonstration:
- vCPE (higher priority – no additional implementation dependency), vDNS

Phase 2 (Casablanca Stretch Goal) 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
Intent Support
- Multiple realization options per Cloud Region for the specified Intent
Major Impact Projects:
- Multi-Cloud
Minor Impact Projects:
- SO, OOF, GNF Controller

Cloud Agnostic Intent (Policy) Workflow Summary (Phase 1 - Casablanca MVP):

Cloud Agnostic Intent (Policy) Workflow Details (Phase 1 - Casablanca MVP):

Private Cloud Setup - OpenStack-based

Pre-defined (including custom) flavors map to Instance types in Public Clouds
- Pre-defined flavors are created by the Cloud Admin before the Cloud is used by ONAP for workload deployment
VMware VIO Configuration for Min Guarantee feature
- Ref: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Integrated-OpenStack/5.0/com.vmware.openstack.admin.doc/GUID-D2C17D33-EC6C-4B8C-A9A3-25417917461F.html
- Ref: https://docs.openstack.org/horizon/latest/admin/manage-flavors.html
Create necessary tenants per <cloud owner, cloud region>
- Mapping of VNFC, VNF (VF module), Service (e.g. vCPE) to the corresponding tenant happens in the respective Multi-Cloud plugin.

VNFC to Instance Type Mapping

One or more VNFCs (e.g. vCPE VGW) could map to an Instance Type
- Use Case: Residential Broadband vCPE (Approved)
  - Ref: https://github.com/onap/demo/blob/a19bd423c1e4d2f5552bab090ba2650c38fa7192/heat/vCPE/vgw/base_vcpe_vgw.yaml

- OpenStack-based Clouds
  - Instance type maps to pre-defined Flavors
- Microsoft Azure

Step 1. SO → OOF - Get Target <Cloud Owner, Cloud Region> for the Service Instances

Step 2. OOF → Policy - Fetch Cloud Selection Policy for Homing

2a) OOF Processing - the fetched Policy (example below) is stored in a local data structure and is available for further use (need OOF code changes).

Step 3. OOF → A&AI - Fetch Cloud-Agnostic (Standardized) Capabilities for the Service Instance

3a) OOF Processing - Perform Cloud Agnostic Capability check for each <cloud owner, cloud region>. OOF will prune any <cloud owner, cloud region> which is not satisfying the standardized capabilities.

Step 4, OOF --> MC evaluate cost of deployment (aligned to the SO/MC API defined by SO Casablanca HPA Design to minimize the terminology set)

*** Assume: VNFC is equalivent to VM, VNF is equivalent of heat stack.

5a) MC Processing (need MC code changes)

For each cloud owner

Parse OOF → MC Policy (Intent) API
If a Cloud owner does not support a specific "deployment-intent"
- Drop all the cloud regions for the cloud owner from the candidate list
For each cloud region // Public cloud could have different costs in different geographic locations
- Compute net_value based on cost
  - net_value = net_value + workload_deployment_cost
    - If Plugin of cloud owner supports cost based on "dollarCostEvaluationVM-Type" and/or "dollarCostEvaluationVM-FeatureGroup"
      - The workload deployment cost is computed per <instance type, cloud region> based on workload deployment cost policy described in Step 5b).
        Instance Type is derived from <Service, VNFC, cloud owner>
        More details are in 5b)
      - Implementation Notes:
        It is not mandatory for all plugins to implement this feature since the OOF → MC API has the flexibility of turning on this feature per <cloud owner, cloud region>
    - Else
      - The workload deployment cost is computed as a fixed cost per plugin

5b) Workload Deployment Cost Policy - Configured by the Operator

The operator/service provider who uses ONAP will choose which VIMs to use and include the appropriate MC plugins in his ONAP deployment. For example, let’s assume they pick private Openstack, private VMWare, and public Azure as the platform to run their services on.

For R3, Workload Deployment Cost Policy can be stored in the form of configuration file(s) in the OOM K8S Persistent Volumes visible to the relevant MC plugin to simplify implementation. Beyond R3, this could be moved to the Policy DB. The details of the configuration are described below.

By default, each plugin supports a fixed cost for all workloads
- Optionally, plugin of cloud owner can support cost based on "dollarCostEvaluationVM-Type" and/or "dollarCostEvaluationVM-FeatureGroup"
  - Where workload deployment cost includes dollar cost of VM Instance Type (based on <Service, VNFC, cloud owner>) and dollar cost (or discount) of other cloud-specific feature groups corresponding to the intent expressed under the deployment-intent keyword in the OOF → MC API
    - As an example, with respect to the deployment-intent, "Infrastructure Resource Isolation for VNF" with "Burstable QoS" can yield potential cost savings as compared to "Guaranteed QoS" by allowing smart over-subscription while still guaranteeing isolation
Note that the operator is free to choose the method of calculating the cost which includes initial cost, support cost & operational cost.
Note that the operator is free to choose what time duration the cost metric is specified for each of the MultiVIM plugins (e.g., cost per hour, cost per month) since they will do it consistently for each of the VIMs.

"Workload Deployment Cost Policy Example" depicted above has an exemplary description of this.

Step 5. MC → OOF – Return a net value for each <cloud owner, cloud region>

6a) OOF Processing - cloud_net_value input in Multi-objective Optimization (need OOF code changes)

Casablanca Goal for implementation simplification

Select one of the clouds which meets the cost hard constraint, e.g. cost <= x. This is similar to current capacity check implementation, where one of the cloud which passes the capacity check is selected.

Stretch Goal for Casablanca

Each service specifies an service-specific objective function that is stored as part of the service-specific policy and is used by OOF to evaluate the candidate <cloud owner, cloud region>. For simplicity of the example, let’s consider service that consists only of one VNF instance. The objective function has two components:

- distance from customer location to the VNF - the service designed assigns a weight for the distance: wd

- the cost of deploying the VNF in a location - the service designer assigns a weight for the cost: wc

OOF optimization function: min (wd*distance + wc*cloud_net_value)

If the service does not care about the cost at all, it would set wc = 0. If the service designer wants to minimize cost, he could set wd=0. Note that candidates that are too far can be eliminated by a distance constraint even before the optimization. For example, if the service has a distance constraint of at most 100 kilometers, then only those <cloud owner, cloud region> within 100 kilometers to the customer location would be considered in the objective function evaluation.

If the service designer wants to trade off between distance and cost, for example, they might set wd = 1, wc = 2. This would mean that one $1 increase in price is as valuable as 2 kilometers in distance.

<cloud owner, cloud region> Candidate 1: $100, 100 kilometers => value: 300

<cloud owner, cloud region> Candidate 2: $150, 80 kilometers => value: 380

<cloud owner, cloud region> Candidate 3: $50, 190 kilometers => value: 290 <- pick this one

Step 6. OOF → SO - Return the target <cloud owner, cloud region> for the Service Instance + deployment-intent per vnfc

OOF ↔ SO API extension (VNFC deployment-intent) -- identical in content to SO <-> MC Policy API

Step 7. SO → MC - Deploy VNF template in the target <cloud owner, cloud region> for the Service Instance

7) MC Processing (need MC code changes)

Parse Template (e.g. OpenStack Heat Template)
- For each VNFC, instance type in the template
  - Fetch Cloud-Agnostic Workload Deployment Policy (Intent) based on VNFC (e.g. vGW)
    - Value/Content: <Policy JSON>
  - Parse Policy JSON
  - Modify template (if needed) according to Intent
    - Intent examples of interest for R3
      - "Infrastructure High Availability (HA) for VNF"
      - "Infrastructure Resource Isolation for VNF"
        "Burstable QoS"
      - "Infrastructure Resource Isolation for VNF"
        "Guaranteed QoS"
Policy (Intent) Realization
- Determining the flavor (OpenStack-based VIMs) # same logic applies for instance type in Azure
  - Each VNFC uniquely maps to a Flavor - for e.g. VNFC "vgw" maps to "vgw-base", "vDNS" maps to "vDNS-base"
  - Beyond Casablanca
    - VNFC intent to realization mapping happens through A&AI.
- "Infrastructure High Availability (HA) for VNF"
  - OpenStack-based Cloud realization
    - For R3, Host-based anti-affinity using server groups //Beyond R3, Support other anti-affinity models at availability zone level etc.
    - Implementation Notes:
      - Instance "count" in heat template specifies VNFC scale out factor
      - While dynamic injection of server group into heat template is ideal, a simple starting point could be just switching to an alternate heat template which is identical to the deployment template and additionally has server group
  - Azure realization
    - Availability Set?
- "Infrastructure Resource Isolation for VNF" – { "qosProperty": { {"Burstable QoS": "TRUE", "Burstable QoS Oversubscription Percentage": "25"} } }
  - OpenStack-based VMware VIO Cloud realization
    - This can be achieved through min guarantee -- Max or limit (upper bound) & Min or Reservation (guarantee) are part of OpenStack flavor metadata
      - https://docs.openstack.org/horizon/latest/admin/manage-flavors.html
      - https://blogs.vmware.com/openstack/resources-guarantee-openstack-and-vmware-integrated-openstack/
- - - Example
      - VNFC "vgw" with "Guaranteed QoS"
        vCPU (Min/Max) - 16, Mem (Min/Max) - 32GB
        Maps to "vgw-Guaranteed-QoS" flavor for OpenStack-based VIMs
        Same VNFC with "Burstable QoS", 25% over-subscription
        vCPU (Min) - 16, Mem (Min) - 32GB
        vCPU (Max) - 20, Mem (Max) - 40GB
        Maps to "vgw-Burstable-QoS-25-percent-oversubscription" flavor for OpenStack-based VIMs
      - VNFC "vDNS" with "Guaranteed QoS" & "Infrastructure High Availability"
        Maps to "vDNS-Guaranteed-QoS" flavor and "vDNS-infrastructure-high-availability" heat template
    - Only certain pre-defined over-subscription values are allowed to simplify implementation
    - Implementation Notes:
      - While dynamic injection of limit/reservation into flavor is ideal, a simple starting would be to be to switch to a pre-defined flavor in the environment file
        For aforementioned example
        Original flavor - "flavor-xyz-no-oversubscription"
        Modified flavor based on Policy - "flavor-xyz-25-percent-oversubscription"
- Implementation Notes:
  - From an implementation stand point, MC would be exposing a Workload Deployment Policy (Intent) API
    - Input : deployment-intent, cloud owner, cloud region, deployment template, deployment environment file, ...
    - Output : Success or Failure with reason, modified deployment template, modified deployment environment file, ...

Use Cases for Integration testing
- vCPE
  - In the current state, this use case cannot support the intent "Infra HA for VMs in a VNF"
  - This use case has been tested in R2 with OOF↔MC capacity check API
- vDNS
  - Can support intent "Infra HA for VMs in a VNF" and "Infrastructure Resource Isolation for VNF"
  - Nothing additional needed in OOF or MC
  - Changes needed in SO to call OOF API
    - Marcus from Intel is driving this

Implementation trade offs for Casablanca (R3) and potential Dublin (R4) plan:

Deployment-Intent
- 1. "Infrastructure Resource Isolation for VNF" – { "qosProperty": { {"Burstable QoS": "TRUE", "Burstable QoS Oversubscription Percentage": "25"} } }
  - Casablanca Plan
    - Only certain pre-defined over-subscription values are allowed to reflect practical deployment and simplify implementation
  - Dublin & Beyond Potential Plan
    - Creating instance types on demand for private clouds - to study
- 2. Cloud-agnostic Workload Deployment Policy (Intent)
  - Casablanca Plan
    - Cloud-Agnostic Workload Deployment Policy (Intent) can be directly mapped to specific realization (e.g. OpenStack Flavor, Azure Instance Type) to simplify implementation.
  - Dublin & Beyond Potential Plan
    - VIM Capability Discovery to populate Intent in A&AI (similar to HPA label discovery supported since R2)
      - VIM selection – Intent to be populated in A&AI for capability matching
      - VIM Deployment realization - Intent(s) to specific realization mapping (e.g. OpenStack Flavor, Azure Instance Type) to be populated in A&AI
Policy-based & cloud-selection
- 3. Tenant Information is not passed in the OOF → MC API
  - Casablanca Plan
    - The tenant information is derived from a simple mapping function per <cloud owner, cloud region>
      - A simple mapping would be a tenant per <cloud owner, cloud region> as part of Multi-VIM plugin configuration.
      - Need to make sure that this scheme is synchronous with the SO → MC API path
  - Dublin & Beyond Potential Plan
    - Pass Tenant Information per <cloud owner, cloud region> in the OOF → MC API
- 4. VM Instance type/VM Feature Group dollar-cost-based cloud selection
  - Casablanca Plan
    - By default, the workload deployment cost is computed as a fixed cost per plugin
      - VM Instance type/VM Feature Group dollar-cost-based cloud selection is optional for all Multi-Cloud Plugins
  - Dublin & Beyond Potential Plan
    - Deep dive further on dollar-cost-based cloud selection models/implementation for public/private clouds

Cloud Resource Partitioning for Differentiated QoS (Combined with Previous)

Value:

Edge Automation Requirement:

Support three types of slices in the Cloud Infrastructure (Definition Reference: https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/quality-service-pod/)

Guaranteed Resource Slice (hard isolation) for various infra Resources (CPU/Memory/Network)
- Max (limit), Min (request) are the same; resource guarantee is "Max"
- Maps to 5G Applications such as Connected Car which fall in the category of ultra-reliable machine-type communications (ref. 1)
Burstable Resource Slice (soft isolation) for various infra Resources
- Min (request) <= Max (limit); resource guarantee is "Min"
- Maps to Burstable Network Slice such > 1Gbps broadband which fall in the category of extreme mobile broadband (ref. 1)
Best Effort Resource Slice (no isolation) for various infra Resources
- No Min (request) ; resource guarantee is "None"
- Maps to 5G Applications such as IoT which fall in the category of massive machine-type communications (ref. 1)

Implementation:

Leverage current HPA framework with appropriate extensions

MULTICLOUD-254 - Getting issue details... STATUS

ONAP, as in R2, collects the statistics/alarms/events from workloads (VMs) and take any close loop control actions such as Heal a process, scale-out, restart etc.. In R3 and beyond, infrastructure related statistics/alarms/events will be collected, generate actionable insights and take life cycle actions on the workloads. Infrastructure statistics normally include performance counters, NIC counters, IPMI information on per physical server node basis. To reduce the load on the ONAP, it is necessary that aggregated (summarized) information is sent to the ONAP from edge-clouds.

As part of this activity, intention is to create aggregation micro-service that collects the data from physical nodes (over collected and other mechanisms), aggregate the information (time based aggregation, threshold based aggregation, silencing etc.,..) based on the configurable rules and export the aggregate data to DCAE. This micro service can be instantiated by ONAP itself - one or more instances for edge-clouds at the ONAP-central itself using OOM, it could be instantiated at the edge-cloud using their own deployment tools or it could be deployed edge service providers at the regional site level.

In R3, functionality is limited to HPA features and visualization. R3 stretch goal: It collects information from each compute node for all HPA features and keeps track of health and resource information. It would use this information in placement decisions by OOF for accurate results.

Even though the aggregation service is being developed in Multi-Cloud project, it is expected that this can be deployed at various places. The decision to deploy at various levels can be due to performance and regulatory reasons. Following deployments are envisaged at this time:

At the edge site level.
At the regional site level (on behalf of set of edge sites).
At the ONAP level (on behalf of set of edge sites)

Impacted projects (development activities)

ONAP Component	Enhancements
Overall	Define models to represent summation information (Alerts/statistics/Events) for various groups Defining various groups such as CPU usage, Memory usage, file descriptor usage, NIC utilization, various HPA features etc...
Multi-Cloud	Development activities: Prometheus based monitoring & summation Support for collectd for statistics collection from NFVI nodes. Support for VES agent to send the aggregate data to DCAE (Used when the aggregate service is instantiated outside of ONAP control) Support for DMAAP agent to send the aggregate data to DCAE (Normally used if the aggregate service is instantiated at the ONAP-Central. Provide ability to add new plugins (to collect statistics as well as to export aggregation information) Provide ability to upload the recording and alert rules (on per edge-cloud basis or set of edge-clouds basis) Ability to auto-cleanup of time series DB (based on size allocated for this micro-service) Edge-Cloud registration time (as part of ESR) Check whether registration data indicates whether the aggregation service to be brought up). If so, inform the aggregation micro service to authentication and listen for statistics from that edge-cloud. Run time Collects the information (support for both pull/push). Apply rules Generate alarms Export them via VES or DMAPP or any other plugins in future. Update A&AI HPA (Resources and health)
AAI & ESR	ESR Development activities (Need to be done when Edges started to send aggregated data, so future requirement) Enhancements to ESR to indicate whether aggregation service is required for this edge-cloud at the ONAP Enhancements to ESR to indicate Multi-Cloud for Multi-Cloud to listen for connections and statistics requests from the edge-clouds. Information such as CA cert to use to authenticate the remote party or any other UN/PWD method. HPA Enhancements On per cloud-region, provide a a way to indicate whether a given HPA feature (that needs resources) resources are available and if so, the number of resources available. On per cloud-region, provide a way to indicate the health of the HPA feature.
PORTAL	ESR portal related changes to take information about the edge-cloud (CA Cert and UN/PWD information) - Future when the edges started to send aggregate data)
OOF	HPA Enhancements Current HPA filter only consider whether the cloud-region supports HPA capabilities via profiles. Enhancements to consider "availability of resources" and "health of HPA" on the cloud-region.

ONAP Component	Life cycle phase	Enhancements
OOM - ONAP Central	Deploy	Separate ONAP-edge Instance per 'edge domain', (ie., separate from onap-central instance, of course) Note: Independent of any Edge CP's Orchestration components. SP uses a central-OOM with a 'policy' for deployment of an onap-edge instance, e.g., xyz edge provider with abc components, etc. However, onap-edge instance can be 'lighter weight' with subset of components needed (per MVP discussed below) Desirable to managed as a separate K8s cluster (ie., separate from onap-central instance, of course) and, only for onap-edge use, ie., don't use for other 'workloads' like network apps or 3rd party apps Central OOM to deploy the following ONAP edge instance DMaaP with mirror capability

Cloud Agnostic Intent (Policy) Workflow Details (Phase 1 - Casablanca MVP):

Private Cloud Setup - OpenStack-based

VNFC to Instance Type Mapping

Step 1. SO → OOF - Get Target <Cloud Owner, Cloud Region> for the Service Instances

Step 2. OOF → Policy - Fetch Cloud Selection Policy for Homing

Step 3. OOF → A&AI - Fetch Cloud-Agnostic (Standardized) Capabilities for the Service Instance

Step 4, OOF --> MC evaluate cost of deployment (aligned to the SO/MC API defined by SO Casablanca HPA Design to minimize the terminology set)

Step 4. OOF → MC - Push Cloud Agnostic Policy for the Service Instance

Step 5. MC → OOF – Return a net value for each <cloud owner, cloud region>

Step 6. OOF → SO - Return the target <cloud owner, cloud region> for the Service Instance + deployment-intent per vnfc

Step 7. SO → MC - Deploy VNF template in the target <cloud owner, cloud region> for the Service Instance
