The Common NFVI telco Taskforce (CNTT) is a LFN sponsored Taskforce (alongside GSMA sponsorship) and is an initiative that is aiming to minimise the number of Network Function Virtualisation Infrastructure (NFVI) configurations available (as a result of fragmentation of technologies/solutions provided by Open Source Project) and come up with few set of standardised infrastructure profiles for various NFV workloads as well as IT workloads (More information about CNTT can be found in CNTT GitHub).
CNTT compromises of a:
- Reference Model: that explains how the infrastructure is exposed to workload in a standard way
...
- .
- Reference Architecture(s): Open Stack based and Kubernetes based (at the time when this WP is written) to deliver a conformant infrastructure based on those technologies
...
- .
- Reference Implementation(s)
...
- : Open Stack and K8s based (at the time when this WP is written) to be used as a basis of any testing and validation activities
...
- .
- Reference Certification(s): Creating extensive set of testing harnesses to be used to test the conformance of any vendor implemented infrastructure to the CNTT specifications
...
