In meeting kieran mccarthy updated #3 is ON HOLD to analyse further. 

Agreed with Toine Siebelink  on that Priyank Maheshwari  will look into this from now as they are working on something related to this.Need to check with kieran mccarthy for way forward.
#DescriptionNotesDecision
1No Event properties defined for DMI AVC Event

Priyank Maheshwari will need to specify  and agreed event structure for DMI AVC Event with stakeholders  ie. provide Jira ticket


Event Body should be compatible with RFC8641

kieran mccarthy has confirmed.

Priyank Maheshwari created JIRA to create the event body schema. 

2Bulk Operation events details have not yet be defined (just headers)

3Should all the events have same Headers

kieran mccarthy Possibly Common (base) set of headers but mandatory aspect might differ. In practice we might need a separate headers (schema?) for each event

4Clarify the format of the version eventSchemaVersion

v1 or 1.0

ex: 1.0.0 (without 'v')

kieran mccarthy to check ORAN preference

kieran mccarthy confirms through email on to use semantic versioning which ORAN follows https://semver.org.

5What to do with additional event headers (from DMI Plugins)

kieran mccarthy   if DMI produce additional headers NCMP will discard those i.e. not included in forwarded events

6Event(Content) field in DMI Async Request Response Event has inconsistent name (compared with other schemas)
  1. Add V2 file
  2. Deprecate V1
  3. Support both versions for a while
  4. Delete the V1 version (after some time)

CPS Team Create a V2 of the schema and rename eventContent as event data. Do it as part of the schema addition.

7NCMP Async Request Response Event (#5) contains both an Event and ForwardedEvent

ForwardedEvent is not wrapped inside Event but question now is if we need 2 events at all?!

Sourabh Sourabh  and RAVITEJA KARUMURI (EST)  can check how it is actually working and then we decide (create a JIRA ticket)

Wiki for the Study on NCMPAsyncRequestResponse event schema

Conclusion: events not designed as proposed, very inconsistent. Never go a bug because these async events aren't used at all (confirmed by Csaba Koscis) Instead bulk request wil be used for topology use cases.

kieran mccarthy and team agreed to:

  1. Temporary disable the legacy async request feature (task created:

  2. As part of a lower priority work items (but during Montreal) fiX related events with learnings from the new batch-usecase. (task created

8Dmi Data AVC Event, use of eventSource field

Priyank Maheshwari wanted to store 'datastore' in this field but kieran mccarthy explained it to use for different purposes

kieran mccarthy Clients can use this field as per their requirements. 

9Can Headers be described with 'schema's owned and managed by NCMP 

POC to follow.

serverId4733707d-2057-3a0f-ae5e-4fd8aff50176
keyCPS-1657

Defining header schema.

Integration of header with kafka.

Naming and versioning convention for the header schemas. 'id' 

Does the headers schema have a version too?!


 Priyank Maheshwari confirmed headers can be described with a separate schema.

Both header schema's and event schemas will be published on https://docs.onap.org/projects/onap-cps/en/latest/cps-events.html

Header schema name and version will be maintained in the 'id' metadata field of header's schema . 

10Depending #10 can schema inherit/extend a common schema for common headers

Commonly define them and then define what are mandatory(required) or optional as per the schema extending it.

If a field is not used in the extended schema then it should be able to handle it.

extend the POC (on #9) to cover this.

 Priyank Maheshwari did the POC and the conclusion of that was that :-

  • One schema can extend the other schema.
  • We cannot override the mandatory/optional parameter from the Parent schema. 

Toine Siebelink agrees to go ahead with separate schema/headers per event.  There will be some duplication but it will have its advantage when versioning. 

11Is anyone using Async Request feature?

See

Jira Legacy
serverSystem Jira
serverId4733707d-2057-3a0f-ae5e-4fd8aff50176
keyCPS-1660
we need to re-design event  #4 (Covers Point 6 as well) and #5 in a backward incompatible way. If no-one is using this feature right now (suspected) we can do this more easily/cheaper!

 Csaba Kocsis confirmed this is not used by Ericsson currently. No plans to use soon for single-cmhandle requests either (TBC). Need to decide priority (Csaba Kocsis to find out of fiXing the legacy schema(s)
See decision on issue #7

12Do we need additionalProperties for DMI ASync Data Request respondes (events #4, #5)The original code populates a framework defined 'additionalProperties' field with a singel key-value pair: "response-data",{<json data>}. No other (private) properties are added either in DMI PLugin or NCMP code. The name is just coincidence and misleading. In fact this 'additionalProperties' field should NOT have been used at all!No, the new schema should NOT add  'additionalProperties' field at all use 'additionalProperties:no' in the schema
13AVC Subscription Event (DMI → NCMP) (events #3)
  • Want to understand what 'data' is datatype referring to under Subscription Event?
    • What value comes under 'schemaName' & 'SchemaVersion' of Datatype definition under AVC Subscription Event?
    • Reconfirmation needed on 'schemaName' & 'SchemaVersion'  should be in the payload?

 kieran mccarthy this issue is now no longer relevant as the decision was to use CNCF Cloud Events instead as per decision #14

14Align headers with CNCF Cloud EventsUsing standard headers as defined by Cloud Events and possibly common header extension See Table below, CNFC Cloud Event alignment
CPS will use Cloud Events  3PP for all current and legacy events to ensure common format

kieran mccarthyand Toine Siebelink  agreed on general idea but exact list of common headers need to be agreed 
Jira (first impl.) to be added!

During the meeting we saw that the Header fields were prefiXed with "ce_" so we need to check if we are ok with that.

assume "ce_" can be used as all user of the CNCF lib will get this behavior, will check if it can be replaced with no prefix at all. 
Sourabh Sourabh and Priyank Maheshwari concluded a cloud events specific serializer is used that add this prefix and cannot easily be changed (also that would be inconsistent use of this library) 

CPS Team recommend to accept this prefix and simply document that this prefer is required when filtering on kafka headers defined by CloudEvenst standard.

  team agreed with  kieran mccarthy to accept "ce_" prefix on serialzied CE defined headers. 
Note. Event(s) documentation in RTD should mentioned this  clearly too

16Do will still need/ can we still use schemas for header details with CNCF library ?! How to publish info about non-standard headers like correlationid ?

Meeting on   Team agreed refer to CNFC doc. and add list of extensions in RTD documentation. (key and value constraints)

17Inconsistent casing convention for header fields v. json data fieldsJust observing. All header ion CNCF are lowercase whereas json field are camelCase. Don't want to change but want to make sure agree...

Meeting on   Team agreed this is the way it is and Toine Siebelink will update to CPS Style section: Contribution and Development#CommonStyleConventions

18Confirm 'source'. is to be added to ALL events (declared mandatory for CNFC events)

kieran mccarthy confirm is is compulsory and a value will need to be set for all event definition. in NCMP a default value of 'ncmp' can be used if no other source is applicable. Toine Siebelink will update this page were needed to add this field and default value

CNCF Cloud Event alignment

Introduction

CNCF CloudEvents is a specification for describing event data in common formats to provide interoperability across services, platforms and systems.

  • These cloud events will be applied to all the internal and external events we have in CPS , NCMP and DMI Plugin.
  • Cloud events will be taking care of the fields which are part of Headers or part of the actual payload (fields other than "data" are sent as Headers)
  • These CNCF cloud events will be applied to all the events listed in above sections (LCM , DMI Data AVC etc.)
