O-RAN Component deployment

The question is: How to deploy the red colored CNFs/VNFs of the O-RAN-Architecture?

• CNF for O-RAN-components 
  • model of CNF - how to be configured, how many components, blueprints
  • CDS model needs to be created
  • Network-service based on several CNFs
    • CNF types
      • Near-RT-RIC
      • O-CU-UP
      • O-CU-CP
      • O-DU

For detailed discussion the following page was created:

• CNF deployment of O-RAN Components 

Package

• for Network Functions (priority)
• for Network Service (second step)

CNFs or VNFs

• both should be considered 
  • let's start with CNFs first
  • VNF is considered as additional option

• no CNFs and VNFs combined in a single package
  • maybe not for rApps → 
  • VNF should take care about internal CNFs
