Draft.  - Withdrawn as a standalone project. Will be handled as a Sub project of OOM

Project Name:

  • Proposed name for the project: ONAP Operations Manager / ONAP on Containers
  • Proposed name for the repository: oom/containers

...

  • The primary benefits of this approach are as follows:

    • Life-cycle Management. Kubernetes is a comprehensive system for managing the life-cycle of containerized applications.   Its use as a platform manager will ease the deployment of ONAP, provide fault tolerance and horizontal scalability, and enable seamless upgrades.
    • Hardware Efficiency. As opposed to VMs that require a guest operating system be deployed along with the application, containers provide similar application encapsulation with neither the computing, memory and storage overhead nor the associated long term support costs of those guest operating systems. An informal goal of the project is to be able to create a development deployment of ONAP that can be hosted on a laptop.
    • Deployment Speed. Eliminating the guest operating system results in containers coming into service much faster than a VM equivalent. This advantage can be particularly useful for ONAP where rapid reaction to inevitable failures will be critical in production environments.
    • Cloud Provider Flexibility. A Kubernetes deployment of ONAP enables hosting the platform on multiple hosted cloud solutions like Google Compute Engine, AWS EC2, Microsoft Azure, CenturyLink Cloud, IBM Bluemix and more.

    In no way does this project impair or undervalue the VM deployment methodology currently used in ONAP.  Selection of an appropriate deployment solution is left to the ONAP user.

...

    • Converting ONAP components deployment to docker containers
    • Orchestrating ONAP components lifecycle life cycle using Kubernetes


As part of the OOM project, it will manage the lifecycle of individual containers on the ONAP runtime environment.

...

    • Duplicate containers – The VM structure of ONAP hides internal container structure from each of the components including the existence of duplicate containers such as Maria DB.  
    • DCAE - The DCAE component not only is not containerized but also includes its own VM orchestration system. A possible solution is to not use the DCAE Controller but port this controller’s policies to Kubenetes directly, such as scaling CDAP nodes to match offered capacity.
    • Ports - Flattening the containers also expose port conflicts between the containers which need to be resolved.
    • Permanent Volumes - One or more permanent volumes need to be established to hold non-ephemeral configuration and state data.
    • Configuration Parameters - Currently ONAP configuration parameters are stored in multiple files; a solution to coordinate these configuration parameters is required.  Kubernetes Config Maps may provide a solution or at least partial solution to this problem.
    • Container Dependencies – ONAP has built-in temporal dependences dependencies between containers on startup.  Supporting these dependencies will likely result in multiple Kubernetes deployment specifications.

...

  • How does this project fit into the rest of the ONAP Architecture?
    • Please Include architecture diagram if possible
    • What other ONAP projects does this project depend on?
      • ONAP Operations Manager (OOM) [Formerly called ONAP Controller]: The ONAP on Containers project is a sub-project of OOM focusing on docker/kubernetes management of the ONAP platform components
      • The current proposed "System Integration and Testing" (Integration) Project might have a dependency on this project - use OOM to deploy/undeploy/change the test environments, including creation of the container layer.

      • This project has also a dependency on the LF infrastructure (seed code from ci-management project)

  • How does this align with external standards/specifications?
    • N/A
  • Are there dependencies with other open source projects?
    • Docker
    • Kubernetes
