Discussions between Arpit Joshipura, Byung-Woo Jun, Jill Lovato, Louis Illuzzi and Sunny Cai:
Tech Mahindra is a services-driven organization that collaborates closely with its customers to deliver tailored technology solutions, enabling them to achieve their desired use cases effectively. In the past, Tech Mahindra has partnered with leading global enterprises, including AT&T, Bell Canada and Telus, to drive innovation and transformation using ONAP. Currently, the company is working with Deutsche Telekom on ORAN (Open Radio Access Network) integration, showcasing its commitment to advancing next-generation network technologies. Tech Mahindra has a highly skilled team with extensive expertise in ONAP. As a founding Platinum member of ONAP, the company has been a significant contributor to its development, actively contributing to multiple components such as DMaaP, DCAE, SO, AAI, APPC, Policy, SDNC, and more. Since its inception, Tech Mahindra has contributed over 370 KLOC to ONAP, reinforcing its leadership in network automation and orchestration. These contributions have supported Telco operators in adopting ONAP for cloud-native workloads and operationalizing deployments across edge and central locations for advanced architectures like vRAN and 5G slicing.
Capgemini focusing to transform telecom Network with ONAP Unlocking the full potential of the ORAN Network using ONAP, the leading open-source platform for Service Management and Orchestration (SMO) in the O-RAN ecosystem. ONAP empowers telcos to efficiently manage and optimize Radio Access Network (RAN) components, driving innovation and excellence.
Capgemini's deployments and use cases - Capgemini use ONAP mainly for RAN FCAPS Management using the SDNR component - PM KPIs processing using DCAE (VES collector, PM Mapper, File Collector, etc) , and DMaaP (Message Router, Data Router) - DMaaP MR will be replaced with Kafka in future releases. Capgemini is currently working on this feature based on our discussion with ONAP community - CapGemini offers O-RAN compliant CU/DU. Currently, interoperability testing between ONAP based SMO with Capgemini CU/DU is ongoing, to support various features like Provisioning Management, Fault Management, File management, etc..

- TSC members to add thoughts
Let's discuss more this year for Paris +
Any questions or feedback?
Byung-Woo Jun presented the brainstorm at the TSC meeting this week.
Brainstorm:
- Ensure ONAP core components are focused and operate independently, from build to runtime
- DT finishes Argo-CD and Flux based component independent deployment
- optimizing code for Flux
- DT is productizing some of the selected ONAP core components early next year in their TNAP production environment
- Declarative and Intent-based component operations by the Repository-based Network Automation : see the ideas from ONAP Architecture Evolution - 2025.pdf
- DT finishes Argo-CD and Flux based component independent deployment
- Make ONAP core components more autonomous and ready for use by both ONAP, LF and other external users
- During New Delhi and Oslo releases, CPS and Policy achieved the OpenSSF Gold Badging status. Kudos to the team!
- Continue to promote/facilitate other ONAP core components for the Gold Badging status (e.g., UUI, SDNC) - Ramesh, Toine, Byung will invite Fiete to give him a list of work items for gold badging.
- Incorporate more GenAI capabilities and use cases to the ONAP components, and promote the adoption of open-source LLM models and frameworks aligned with LF AI & Data and GenAI Commons
- Collaborate with LF AI & Data GenAI Commons and Nephio GenAI for 5G and 6G
- Open-source based models and controls
- AI-Based Control Loop
- AI Model-As-A-Service
- ETSI ISG NFV compliance for AI?
- Foster inter-community collaboration with other LF communities, such as O-RAN and Nephio
- SDNC enhancements (which is used by O-RAN OAM as is)
- Resource-based Orchestration Pattern (leveraging CD and Operator)
- Energy saving / monitoring ; N.K. Shankaranarayanan, rAPP in SMO is monitoring energy; it is an industry trend.
- Ensure the security of ONAP components and operations
- The latest security mechanism for communications (service mesh enhancements leveraging Istio and coming Ambient Mesh)
- Deprecate unused sub-components and mitigate security vulnerabilities
- Define a secure LFN CI/CD pipeline by leveraging OpenSSF-associated reference tools
