Scope

What is this release trying to address?

The SDN-C project provides a global network controller, built on the Common Controller SDK, which manages, assigns and provisions network resources.   As a "global" controller, the SDN-C project is intended to run as one logical instance per enterprise, with potentially multiple geographically diverse virtual machines / docker containers in clusters to provide high availability.  The project also will support the ability to invoke other local SDN controllers, including third party SDN controllers.

In the Beijing release, the SDN-C project will be used to manage, assign and provision network resources for the Beijing release use cases, listed in the Use Cases section below.

Use Cases

The use cases supported in the Beijing release are:

  • Virtual Domain Name Server (vDNS)
  • Virtual Firewall (vFW)
  • Virtual Voice over LTE (vVoLTE)
  • Virtual Customer Premise Equipment (vCPE)

Minimum Viable Product

The Minimum Viable Product for Beijing is the set of capabilities needed to support the use cases listed above. 

Functionalities

List the functionalities that this release is committing to deliver by providing a link to JIRA Epics and Stories. In the JIRA Priority field, specify the priority (either High, Medium, Low). The priority will be used in case de-scoping is required. Don't assign High priority to all functionalities.

Longer term roadmap

One critical long term objective for the SDN-C project is support for integration with other third party SDN Controllers (e.g. Open Contrail), well as integration with the SDN Agent project from Open-O.  For the Beijing release, since our primary goal is to support the use cases identified above and to improve platform maturity, the degree to which we support such integration will be dictated by the needs of those use cases.  However, we do want to bear in mind that such integration is critical and will be included in our release plans going forward.

Sub-Components

Subcomponents of each ONAP project may be found on the Resources and Repositories (Deprecated) page on this wiki.  Please see the SDN-C section of that page for subcomponent list of SDN-C.

ONAP Dependencies

SDN-C depends on the following projects:

  • Active and Available Inventory (A&AI)
  • Common Controller SDK (CCSDK).
  • Service Design and Creation (SDC)
  • Data Movement as a Platform (DMaaP)
  • Documentation
  • Integration
  • External API
  • Modeling
  • Multi VIM/Cloud
  • Policy

Architecture

High level architecture diagram

The following diagram shows the high level architecture of SDNC:

...

  • Device Data Models : Yang models that define interfaces to devices (virtual or physical) that the SDNC configures
  • Service Network Data Models : Yang models that define data maintained within the SDNC about the network used by the set of services supported by this SDNC instance
  • Service Chain Data Models : Yang models that define how services supported by an SDNC instance can be chained
  • Service Data Models : Yang models that define data maintained within the SDNC for the set of services it supports
  • Directed Graphs : programmable logic, updatable at run time with no restart, that define the behavior of the SDNC
  • Service Logic Interpreter : module provided by CCSDK which allows platform to execute directed graphs
  • API Handler : code (mostly generate from service Yang models) which implements RESTCONF API into SDNC.  Most API handlers should follow the following pattern:
    • Call directed graph named after invoked RPC, passing RESTCONF RPC parameters as Java Properties object.
    • Return results from directed graph invocation as response to RESTCONF RPC
  • Interface adaptors - code that allows directed graphs to invoke external interfaces
