• BULK PM develops the capability for the PNF/VNF to send performance measurement data to ONAP. A file ready is sent via VES and the files are pulled via sftp. PNF/VNFs collects performance measurement data periodically (configurable). It also introduces the parsing of files (3GPP defined format) conversion to VES format.
• REAL-TIME PM -develops the capability for the PNF/VNF to send a subset of the performance measurement data to ONAP much more rapidly than for bulk PM
  
• PM DICTIONARY -provides vendor definition of measurements in a consistent format
  

Business Impact - It provides a generic ability which ONAP service providers will find useful for the collection of PM information. Performance measurements is viewed as a fundamental capability for Network Elements, "P" in FCAPS. General PM capability most network functions will likely have measurements. The framework of file transfer can be used in future use cases as well.

• BULK PM -provides configured measurements to be collected in a file that ONAP pulls to provide historical and trending information on the measurement data the NF provides.  This information can be used for network planning, performance analysis of the network etc.
  
• REAL-TIME PM -
  PM DICTIONARY -PM provides rapid delivery of the values of a sub set of the PM counters.  This is valuable to the service provider to debug problems, assess the impact of configuration changes etc.
  
• PM DICTIONARY is a necessary support component for Bulk PM and Real Time PM to provide definition of the vendor measurements.  The consistency of the format of the data enable easier development of analytics and policies using measurements.
  

Business Markets - This capability is added for 5G it is generic and could be used for other services as well. It could be applicable to other products beyond 5G most domains will likely have measurement files including transport.
