List of Proposed Topics

...

  • Short Description:  CNI Round Table

  • Detailed Description:
    • Round Table discussion about CNI (mainly for networking plumbing).
    • Mainly focus on telco/NFV-ish area, but other areas also welcome.
    • For example:
      • Sharing experiments with CNI (e.g. multus or CNI reference plugins) and discuss missing requirements
      • What are the needs of Cloud Native VNF-s from networking?
      • Which CNI-s are fulfilling these requirements?
      • What is different and what is similar about the different CNI-s for telco workloads?
  • Topic Leader: Tomofumi Hayashi (tohayash@redhat.com), Levente Kale, Gergely Csatari 
  • Estimated Audience Size: 1-15
  • Interested In Attending:

  • Short Description:  CNTT and CNCF TUG Common API Framework

  • Detailed Description: In this session, I would like to invite people from the CNTT group and CNCF TUG group to come together to work on a Common API Framework so that we can have a common North and southbound APIs for both VNF/CNF vendors/users and NFVI vendors/users. The intent of this session will be have an open discussion to drive a consensus so that we can align on the API framework that would work for both VNFs as well CNFs (cloud native) so that we can implement the reference architecture as specified by CNTT group. This should allow the transition of VNFs to CNFs smooth. Additionally, this will help build validation framework that works for all types of workloads.

  • Short Description:  Improving ONAP interoperability & Adoption with API Fabric

  • Detailed Description: This sessions will present a solution to simplify the consumption of APIs in ONAP and to expose operational APIs while improving interoperability with 3rd party systems. We will present how the API Fabric provides a simplified abstraction layer, exposing standard APIs, which improves the usability for end users and speeds up the productization of ONAP.

    The API fabric provides capabilities for onboarding new APIs, with plugins to convert to standard APIs, and provides complete API lifecycle management including subscription and transaction control & monitoring. The exposed manageable façade layer simplifies ONAP’s consumable interface for operations, application development or business level monitoring, avoiding deep integration with individual ONAP components.

  • Short Description:  A step towards validating ONAP Control Loops

  • Detailed Description: This is continuation of discussion started in DDF meeting in Sweden on ONAP Control loop validation.
    • As ONAP is currently implementing and improving the control loop framework (model driven control loops), we would like to propose a consistent validation of control loops by reusing existing mechanism, we would like to discuss the following topics :
    • try and validate control loops flow
      in an automated fashion, with the intention to serve multiple goals :
      - decouple control loop flows from instantiation flows in order to speed up validation.
      - lower the learning curve for people to understand control loops
      - identify quickly breaking changes that would hurt the control loop as a whole
      - create a framework to allow for proving control loop behavior
    • This session is an open discussion session 
  • Estimated Audience Size: 5-10

  • Short Description: ONAP as a unified MEC-in-NFV Orchestrator

  • Detailed Description: In the latest ETSI MEC architecture specification, there is a generic reference architecture and a MEC-in-NFV variant. We would like to discuss the MEC-in-NFV variant and the possibility of ONAP serving as the combined orchestrator (NFVO + MEAO). Also, given the rich functionality of various ONAP controllers, we would like to discuss how ONAP could possibly interface with both external MEPM-V components or alternatively subsume this functionality within ONAP. This is quite similar to how ONAP deals with VNFMs — they can be external or internal. There is no pre-planned agenda, and we would like to have an open discussion on this topic.
