ONAP components support for native CNAs artifacts and cloud native service models distribution and management
Executive Summary – Today new emerging infrastructures based on kubernetes are becoming very popular. ONAP components shall support CNAs artifacts and cloud native service models and relevant distribution/management. Given the fact that K8s has its own orchestration capabilities that partially overlap with ONAP capabilities, it is expected that ONAP developments will focuse only on aspects not covered by K8s. The envisioned scenario is based on both CNFs (deployed on kubernetes infrastructure) and PNFs.
Business Impact – Today, many ONAP components (e.g. SDC, SO and AAI) are not able to manage CNA artifact/service models in a native way that bring to unnecessary complexity in service orchestration. It is expected that ONAP modeling and LCM support services composed of PNFs and CNFs to be future proof. ONAP developments will focuse only on LCM aspects not covered by K8s (e.g. service orchestration rather than resource orchestration.
