Sweetcomb: Unified Management Interface and Integration

Sweetcomb is an open source project, to provide an unified management interface to configure and telemetry Appliances, VNFs and CNFs.

It can be leveraged in Edge Networking and Cloud, such as SD-WAN, 5G, IoT, etc.

There are 12 industry founders, including Intel, Cisco, Pantheon Technologies,  Huawei, Tencent, Alibaba, China Mobile etc.

It has published two official releases so far. https://wiki.fd.io/view/Sweetcomb

The architecture and the implementation of the ONAP Policy Framework was substantially upgraded in the ONAP Dublin release. In this talk, we present the evolved ONAP Policy Framework discussing the most important improvements, and describing the evolved architecture of the Policy Framework. We highlight the power of TOSCA Policy Types and how they can be used to build translation applications.

This session will introduce Sweetcomb project and cover key elements:

1) Provides gNMI interface and OpenConfig Yang models for Cloud.

2) Provides NETCONF & RESTCONF interfaces and IETF Yang models for Telecom.

3) Can Support different Data Planes, such as VPP, DPDK, Linux Kernel and OVS.

4) Can integrate with SDN Controllers and Orchestration, such as ONAP, K8s, ODL and ONOS, etc.

5) Supports High Availability and real-time streaming telemetry in Containers.

What should be the ONAP TSC Priorities for the next 6 months?

This session is dedicated to identify what would be the top 3 priorities of the TSC in order to support the ONAP Community, to improve any process/toolchain gaps and to build an execution plan accordingly.

Feel free to create new TSC tasks in JIRA under "ONAP TSC" project

FlexRAN Onboarding to ONAP

Developer Unconference

This session gives developers an opportunity to discuss the strengths, weaknesses, areas that can be improved, and areas that threaten project failures. The focus here is on developer issues such as but not limited to languages, coding, processes, tools, methods, project structures. The result of this session could be a report for the steering committee of projects.

One suggestion would be to run this session using a technique such as SWOT analysis but that's only one suggestion. The format of the session and the reporting done from the session is at the discretion of the participants on the day.

Experiences in switching to Alpine Linux and upgrading to Java 11

This session would cover two experiences sharing topics, that is gathered in working at Policy Framework but can be applied anywhere:

1. Switching docker base image from ubuntu to apline, that would reduce footprint signicantly . 
2. Investigation result about upgrade Java 11 from Java 8, that is tricker than most upgrades. We have to face some challenges, like:
   some modules were removed or deprecated, we need to find the replacements; IDEs, plugins and tools also need to be updated; some new features are introduced, etc.

Meanwhile it would be also great to listen to your opinions.

Intelligent Automation with ONAP

This session is dedicated to solicitation and planning for network intelligence collaboration proposals with ONAP community.

Acumos_ONAP_Integration_Arch.pptx

• Vimal shares the closed-loop vision of intelligent network architecture. It is recommended to build a big data platform and model training platform around Datalake to complete the loop with Acumos, DCAE and Datalake.
• Stephen shares the work related to 3GPP SA2 NWDAF and SA5 MDAF, and proposes to coordinate the relevant functional architecture to achieve consistency with the community.
• Srini shares the progress of the AAAS use-case. It is recommended to cooperate with the demonstration application of China Mobile's core network element intelligent expansion and expansion, and collaborative development for specific intelligent scenarios. An open source reference implementation that integrates edge orchestration and intelligent network architecture.
• There is a discussion of working procedure, it is recommended to set up a virtual working group and follow the existing workflow of the community (use-case, architecture, modeling, etc.).

5G Slicing Mgmt with ONAP

• 3GPP SA5 defines the reference architecture and workflow for 5G Slicing Management but with no standard interfaces between the three layering architecture.
• A new two-layering implementation architecture of the 3GPP functional architecture leveraging TMF openAPI is reflected in commercial solutioning and external ONAP PoCs.
• Call for a common approach to converge different options and work complementary manner to accelerate 5G slicing management use-case realization.

OOMP CD Gating Feedbacks

ONAP OOM Gating has been using Orange OpenLab platform for any new OOM patch. More than 500 ONAP deployments launched to validate OOM modification.

Lessons learnt and how to extend this process to other projects.

Archecture brainstorm on Modularization

 ONAP Architecture Priorities for Release F

Improve ONAP tests and  remove specific use-cases artifacts from ONAP components code

Improve ONAP tests and verify that every pod is using in one or more end-to-end use-case or test cases.

Improve use-case documentation to explain the list of components used per use-case (by use-case owner)

Detail for each use-case the list of pods involved for every use-case (by PTL)

Remove use-case code/artifcats from the ONAP components code and create dedicated repos for the use-case gathering all the artifacts to be used for a use-case

ONAP Versionining

ONAP Versioning should be streamlined

It would reinforce "rolling-release" goal

it would make ONAP test more reproductible

Heat and TOSCA VNF validation program

Finalize the integration and work plan on the CVC (compliance and verification community) minimum viable product (MVP) for VNF Validation (life-cycle) program.  This program will award a badge to VNF products (HEAT or TOSCA) meeting the programs test case / success requirements. Form this meeting, there needs to be secure commitments for resources, firm understand the timeline and milestones. Engage ONAP TestSuite/integration,  VVP, and VNFSDK teams in this process.

ONAP SECCOM F2F

Using dockherhub's public registry for CI/CD builds - An ONAP use-case

Presentation + 

Discussion

1. Using Docker Hub is a must in order to support platform independent images

2. We want to extend the Jenkins build pipeline to build in parallel docker images for multiple architectures; this has little impact on the team's effort as it doesn't impact the artefacts (Java or Python services) build process at all

3. Migrating from Nexus3 to Dockerhub in ONAP requires a team effort between tech teams in ONAP (PTLs), LinuxFoundation (Releng) and the Multiarch team but among us we have the experience to deliver this in a smooth way

Extending CCSDK : adding a new plugin

• Where to add the code in Gerrit
• What else needs to be updated in order to make the new plugin available in the controller container
• How to test the change locally

Lab as a Service Proposal and Discussion

We will have a short presentation on what Lab as a Service is, where we are today, and how we plan to proceed. We want to have time to discuss the LaaS project proposal with the community and answer any questions.

The LaaS team is not able to attend, so this will have to be a remote session.

Robot Testing Enhancements in Dublin and Plans for El Alto

Certificate management and Secure Storage discussion

Three new requirements for PKI in ONAP Frankfurt were proposed. Alternative 1 from how to use CMPv2 was said to be the initial target for the community, further discussion might be needed. This target would modify two previous Dublin requirements to not go for a true "RA" but for a CMPv2 client.

Status update and demo from AAF and  latest progress regarding certificate handling. Demo for auto certificate renewal  and other. See zoom meeting for demo.

Community sync and alignment between the current two tracks (AAFvsISTIO) to be further discussed and analyzed. Possibility to reuse SoftHSMv2 solution from ISTIO/Intel PoC also for AAF as they both target PKCS#11. 

Reverse engineering of data models -- how and why

Many ONAP components have developed their own data models independently to fill their own needs. As the complexity of ONAP increases, there is a need not only to document these data models, but also to compare them, find commonalities,  create abstractions, and define common principles. One path to this is through reverse-engineering.

This session will present different considerations and techniques when reverse-engineering data models to a common notation, looking at specific examples. The intention is to start a discussion around the needs in the community and how to best fulfil them.
