Kubernetes Usage in Telecommunications Survey Proposal

• Objective - Determine adoptions and assess current roadmap
• Audience - CNCF TUG and LFN EUAG and CNTT RA2
• Feedback from team
  • What are the most important features are you looking for in the platform?
  • Time-series survey to assess changes over time?
  • Has CNCF already done this - how can we factor that in?
  • LFN to administer?

Review Updated Work Stream Definitions

• Feedback:
  • Performance process may need to adapt (B4)
  • POC work will be contained in ONAP - WS07 not tracked in OVP2.0

  • RC2 is under discussion to use XTesting to organize. May need to add Cedric to be included.
    • CNF Conformance team has approved XTesting as a test runner for RC-2 tests 
  • If we stand up a lab what would the target of the testing be?
    • RI-2 would be the NFVI, but need RI-2 available first. Need updates for RI-2 team
    • We would need reference CNFs for CNF testing. CNF Conformance has some but may not be sufficient. A 4G LTE core has been contributed to CNF Testbed (Ranny will confirm if this is officially available).

Face to Face Discussion and Recap

• OVP Status and Evolution
  • OVP Badges will support current badge version and 1 prior release.  Validation tooling may be available for prior versions, but OVP will not accept, review, or provide badges for older versions.
  • All historical badges will remain on the portal
  • Badging levels (no strong consensus emerged)
    • Types discussed:
      • Pass/Fail - What we have today
        • No results needed
      • Badge with Sub-categories, each pass fail (Recommend we move forward with this option)
        • No individual results needed, but vendor will show pass/fail on specific sub-categories (ex: CNTT RA-2, ONAP Compliance, etc)
      • Scoring System - scored based on passage of tests
        • Results must be made available
• Performance Discussion
  • Bi-weekly CVC call will host discussions on further refining the definitions and key metrics related to performance (crosses both CNOVP and OVP 1.0)
• Operator Panel Discussion
