2. API definitions

OOF provides the following interfaces:

Interface NameInterface Definition Interface CapabilitiesAPI Spec (Swagger)
OOFE-1
  • Homing
  • Traffic Distribution

It enables placement based on a wide variety of policy constraints including capacity, location, platform capabilities, and other service specific constraints. 

https://docs.onap.org/projects/onap-optf-osdf/en/latest/sections/offeredapis.html
OOFE-2PCI/ANR OptimizationEnables PCI/ANR optimization API for SON.https://docs.onap.org/projects/onap-optf-osdf/en/latest/sections/offeredapis.html
OOFE-3Schedule Optimizationa policy driven workflow schedule optimizer for change management planning. This interface schedule workflows in time to maximize parallel change management activities, while respecting dependency between the workflows.https://docs.onap.org/projects/onap-optf-cmso/en/latest/sections/offeredapis.html
OOFE-4Route Optimization

Provides an interface for Router Optimization and inter-domain route optimization.

https://docs.onap.org/projects/onap-optf-osdf/en/latest/sections/offeredapis.html

Inter-domain swagger Reference (This review will show the added new API. This can also be found under the docs above)

OOFE-5OOF Model AdministratorThis is for the OOF Model Administrator API.  This API is a way to dynamically change the optimization models that will be used to find solutions for various optimization problems.  This API will be used to Create, Update, or Delete Models.
OOFE-6

Network Slicing

This interface enables slice selection recommendations (NST, NSI, NSSI, Slice Profiles), as well as slice termination recommendations (NSI, NSSI)

https://docs.onap.org/projects/onap-optf-osdf/en/latest/sections/offeredapis.html

Slicing swagger reference (This review will show the changes done to the API. This can also be found under the docs above) 

Note:   xxxI interface is a Component internal interface.  xxxxE interface is a component external interface

...

OOF consumes the following Interfaces:

Interface NamePurpose Reason For UseAPI Spec (Swagger)
SDNCE-1For PCI/ANR optimization, OOF Retrieves the Cellsite inventory details from the configdb API, which is hosted as part of the SDNC/R componenthttps://github.com/onap-oof-pci-poc/sdnc/blob/master/ConfigDB/swagger-json/swagger.json
AAIE-1OOF interfaces with AAI to retrieve the inventory

OOF consumes a wide variety of inventories from AAI. It can be found under the API section of AAI

https://docs.onap.org/projects/onap-aai-aai-common/en/latest/platform/offeredapis.html

MCE-5

OOF queries Multicloud for real-time available capacity information

https://docs.onap.org/projects/onap-multicloud-framework/en/latest/MultiCloud-APIv0-Specification.html
MUSICI-1OOF interfaces with MUSIC to persist service state.
SDCE-1OOF interfaces with SDC to retrieve slice template informationhttps://docs.onap.org/projects/onap-sdc/en/latest/offeredapis.html
DESE-1OOF interfaces with DES to retrieve the PM/KPI data of the cells for ML-based decision making.DES Swagger reference


3. Component Description:

ONAP Optimization Framework (OOF) is an Umbrella project, with the primary goal of addressing the optimization needs of ONAP. OOF is a framework that supports creating and running a suite of Optimizing applications including: -

  • Change Management Scheduling optimizer

...

  • Homing/Placement optimizer

...

  • PCI optimizer

...

  • Route optimizer

...

  • Slice selection

OOF is targeted to be an optimization platform with the following goals: -

  • Declarative, policy-driven approach to solving optimization problems

...

  • Reusable components: data and policy adapters/libraries, execution environment

...

  • Support General-Purpose as well as Custom optimizers

...

  • Extensible to multiple optimization problems

Internally, OOF has the following components: 

...

OOF doesn't directly create models, but indirectly consumes them via AAI, Policy and Multi Cloud. 

  • Service and Resource Info, from: AAI
  • Network Topology for CM: AAI
  • HPA Flavors/Capabilities/CapacityInfo, from : AAI
  • Policy Models (homing, PCI) from: Policy
  • Infrastructure Metrics Info (capacity), from: MultiCloud
  • Cloud agnostic Intent Info, from: MultiCloud
  • AZ level capacity Info, from: MultiCloud (for F-GPS)
  • PCI configuration datadata (not yet part of SDC SDNC model)
  • Slice/Subnet Profile and Slice/Subnet Instance models, from AAI

6. System Deployment Architecture

Image RemovedImage Added

7. New Capabilities in this Release

  • Component Upgrades to new Policy Lifecycle API
  • Support for E2E Network Slicing
  • Support to perform CRUD operations on certain optimization models during runtime. 

...

  • Updates to E2E Network Slicing (refer OOFE-6)
  • Support for inter-domain route optimization (refer OOFE-4)
  • Introduction of offline trained ML model for the SON use case (refer OOFE-2 which has not changed, as well as DESE-1)
  • Integrate Generic Optimization Engine into OOF Helm charts (refer OOFE-5)
