Overview

Project NamePolicy Framework
Target Release NameBeijing
Project Lifecycle StateIncubation
Participating Company AT&T, Intel, Ericsson, Huawei

Scope

What is this release trying to address?

The Policy Framework will be addressing the following for the Beijing Release:

Use Cases

A best effort will be applied to support Integration testing for the existing R1 Use Cases assuming there are NO changes made to those Use Cases.

Hardware Platform Enablement In ONAP - Dependency will be on Intel to supply the required resources. A best effort will be applied to support Intel resources in lieu of Platform Maturity Guidelines and JUnit Test Code Coverage 50%.

VNF Scale Out (vDNS only - requirements planning) - We will do as much work as possible prior to Cassablanca for supporting the auto scale out use case. Dependent on the amount of requirements planning the APP-C team can do.


Minimum Viable Product


Functionalities

List the functionalities that this release is committing to deliver by providing a link to JIRA Epics and Stories. In the JIRA Priority field, specify the priority (either High, Medium, Low). The priority will be used in case de-scoping is required. Don't assign High priority to all functionalities.

Release Deliverables

Indicate the outcome (Executable, Source Code, Library, API description, Tool, Documentation, Release Note...) of this release.

Deliverable NameDeliverable Description
Policy Portal DashboardExecutable
Policy PAP web applicationExecutable

API - internal to the Policy Platform. The Policy PDP engines use this API to synchronize policies being distributed.

API - external to ONAP components. The API is used to CRUD Policies, Deploy Policies, and query for Policy Decisions.
Policy BRMS GatewayExecutable
MariaDB

SQL database

  • Stores policies and their versions
  • Stores templates/models and their versions
  • Stores PDP grouping information
  • Stores Policy distribution details
Nexus RepoThis repository is used by the Policy Drools PDP to retrieve distributed policies and their dependent jars.

Policy SDC Distribution IntegrationExecutable

Sub-Components

Activities related to sub-components must be in sync with the overall release.

Sub-components are repositories and are consolidated in a single centralized place. Edit the Release Components name for your project in the centralized page.

ManageabilityLevel 1Level 1

  • 1 – single logging system across components; instantiation in < 1 hour
  • 2 – ability to upgrade a single component; tracing across components; externalized configuration management
UsabilityLevel 1Level 1

  • 1 – user guide; deployment documentation; API documentation
  • 2 – UI consistency; usability testing; tutorial documentation


List the API this project is expecting from other projects.
Prior to Release Planning review, Team Leads must agreed on the date by which the API will be fully defined. The API Delivery date must not be later than the release API Freeze date.

Prior to the delivery date, it is a good practice to organize an API review with the API consumers.

Third Party Products mean products that are mandatory to provide services for your components. Development of new functionality in third party product may or not be expected.
List the Third Party Products (OpenStack, ODL, RabbitMQ, ElasticSearch,Crystal Reports, ...).

NameDescriptionVersion
MariaDBThe MariaDB is the repository that holds all the policies, templates, PDP group, and deployment information.

10.0

NexusThe Nexus repository holds all the currently deployed Operational (i.e. Drools policies) and their dependent artifacts.

2.14.2-01

ElasticSearch

Used to search text within policy.

UbuntuOperating system14.04

In case there are specific dependencies  (Centos 7 vs Ubuntu 16. Etc.) list them as well.

"Confirm that resources have been allocated to perform such activities" - at this point I do not have enough resources to cover both making the changes for Platform Maturity and help with testing.

This section is used to document a limitation on a functionality or platform support. We are currently aware of this limitation and it will be delivered in a future Release.
List identified release gaps (if any), and its impact.

Gaps identifiedImpact
Template Code is inefficient with respect to threadingDrools is single-threaded. When a RESTful API call is made, it should be done in a thread vs polling. Else it holds up the processing of events/rules. The RESTful API calls to A&AI, SO and VF-C should be done in a separate thread.
Policy GUI limitations

Unable to update templates

This visual update of Control Loop Operational Policies is not user-friendly

Not a truly model-driven architecture. Code must be written in order to support new models.

Provide a link toward the list of all known project bugs.

List the risks identified for this release along with the plan to prevent the risk to occur (mitigation) and the plan of action in the case the risk would materialized (contingency).

Risk identifiedMitigation PlanContingency Plan
ResourcesActively seeking community support.Current resources are only enough to satisfy the Highest Priority Epics (Platform Maturity, JUnit 50% test coverage). But that will be difficult to achieve.
policy/engine - Difficult to obtain 50% JUnit code coverage based on the extreme amount of cyclomatic complexity and code refactoring needed to remove nested statements.Deprecation of the repository is possible with re-write of components that is needed to support Platform Maturity requirements.Request TSC for exception for that specific repository.

Fill out the Resources Committed to the Release centralized page.

The milestones are defined at the Release Level and all the supporting project agreed to comply with these dates.

This section is optional and may be used to document internal milestones within a project team or multiple project teams. For instance, in the case the team has made agreement with other team to deliver some artifacts on a certain date that are not in the release milestone, it is erecommended to provide these agreements and dates in this section.

It is not expected to have a detailed project plan.

The Documentation project will provide the Documentation Tool Chain to edit, configure, store and publish all Documentation asset.


Other Information

If this project is coming from an existing proprietary codebase, ensure that all proprietary trademarks, logos, product names, etc. have been removed. All ONAP deliverables must comply with this rule and be agnostic of any proprietary symbols.

FOSS activities are critical to the delivery of the whole ONAP initiative. The information may not be fully available at Release Planning, however to avoid late refactoring, it is critical to accomplish this task as early as possible.
List all third party Free and Open Source Software used within the release and provide License type (BSD, MIT, Apache, GNU GPL,... ).
In the case non Apache License are found inform immediately the TSC and the Release Manager and document your reasoning on why you believe we can use a non Apache version 2 license.

Each project must edit its project table available at Project FOSS.


Charter Compliance

The project team comply with the ONAP Charter.
