• Cloud native OAM design Doc gives a detailed introduction about why we do so and how we do this. It contains cloud native OAM bachgroud, its design principle and microservice architecture, and introduction of each functions. Doc link: https://github.com/XGVela/cloud-native-OAM/blob/main/docs/cloud_native_oam_design.md 
• Cloud native installation guide gives deployment environment requirement and detailed step by step instructions on how to deploy cloud native OAM functions. Doc link: https://github.com/XGVela/cloud-native-OAM/blob/main/docs/Installation_guide.md
• Cloud native OAM northbound API guide lists detailed northbound management and operations APIs for upper layer management systems. Doc link: https://github.com/XGVela/cloud-native-OAM/blob/main/docs/API_guide-northbound_interfaces.md
• Updated architecture doc by adding cloud native OAM into Telco PaaS related chapter. Doc link: XGVela Technical Architecture#4.2.3.5TelcoPaaSSolutionProposedbyChinaMobile

Integration:

• Successful integration among cloud native OAM functions, Inspur's container platform and CMCC's container platform on Big Cloud. Both of the container platform are using K8S for orchestration.
• Successful integration among cloud native OAM and network function simulator, which is developed to mimic actions of real network functions.

Tests covered:

As there is no CI/CD pipelines, tests on delivered cloud native OAM functions have been completed in private environment. Quality of delivered codes, helm charts and documentations support users to deploy and use cloud native OAM. Auto testing are scheduled in next release.

• LFN DTF in January: https://wiki.lfnetworking.org/display/LN/2022-01-13+-+XGVela%3A+Microservice+UPF+design+experience+and+interactions+with+PaaS+platform

• CNCF Telco Days: https://events.linuxfoundation.org/cloud-native-telco-day-europe/program/schedule/

• Functional code delivery. Cloud native OAM supports to provide operation and management functions outside NF, which can help to relief NF developers from putting too much effort on fcaps related developement. Besides, as cloud native OAM is the most commonly functions that can be shared among NFs, providing them through PaaS platform indicates NF are using more capabilities on cloud, which is a good trend for telcos to be more cloud native.
• Cloud native OAM has been integrated with and verified on two different container environments. This on some degree reflects the portablity of codes.

• More telco PaaS functional features delivery
• Integration among cloud native OAM, CNF (e.g. Free 5GC), other PaaS platform (OKD), and ONAP.
• Bug fix and doc optimize
• Update cloud native OAM deployment method
