SO/OPENSTACK: CLOUD RESOURCE REQUEST – SO requests Openstack (Blazer) with a cloud resources request to OOF. OOF performs the NVF Orchestration. Does OOF do this? Is this not done? MEC instances.
OPENSTACK: ASSIGN CLOUD RESOURCES – Openstack Blazer assigns cloud resources based on the needs of the service. Assignments are balanced against NFV compute resources in each region, what is currently used/reserved and total capability. Compute resources availability to deploy a VM are consider. The NFV-Orchestration is defined in ETSI NFV. SO can trigger a reservation request. NFV orchestration can create instances of different types. NFV orchestration has a policy. OpenStack Blazer, reservations localized to the cloud instance. SO > Multi-Cloud performs the Resource assignments. SO does not call Openstack directly. A resource is something that can't just sprawl everywhere. When ONAP is homing it is looking a home for a resource (a cloud instance). Geo-diversity is not yet modeled. ANF. MCloud: Translates generic requirements of resources into VIM-specific APIs to get that resource.
SO/OPENSTACK: CLOUD RESOURCE RESPONSE – Openstack responds with the allocated resources.
SO/SDN-C NETWORK ASSIGNMENTS – SO requests SDN-C to perform the Network Assignments needed by the Service instance. Can a Subnet, Network Port be assigned? (Virtual MAC, IP address), connect to VM. VM > create port > connect to VM.
SDN-C NETWORK ASSIGNMENTS – SDN-C performs Network Assignments needed by the Service instance.
SO/SDN-C NETWORK ASSIGNMENTS – SDN-C responds to SO with the Network Assignments needed by the Service instance and the status (success/fail).
SO/MCLOUD INSTANTIATION REQUEST – SO requests M-Cloud to perform the VNF instantiations needed by the Service instance.
MCLOUD INSTANTIATION REQUEST – MCloud performs VNF instantiations. There might be "multiple" of these VNF Instantiations depending on the number of VNF resources associated with the service. VNF-Adaptor is used.
SO/MCLOUD INSTANTIATION RESPONSE – MCloud responds to SO with the VNF instantiations needed by the Service instance and the status (success/fail)
