Overview

CCVPN in Casablanca release included the creation of Point-to-Point connectivity services (e.g., E-Line). The CCVPN Use Case extension for Dublin should include MultiPoint-to-MultiPoint connectivity Service Creation and Modification. This sub-use case extension makes use of the concepts of Unified and Composite Services as depicted in the attached presentation.

From an Operator perspective, it is important to introduce the capability to manage the performance of the CCVPN End-to-End E-LAN service in order to guarantee the adherence to the agreed SLS.

Dublin Goals

1. Enhancements to Information & Data Model - Extend CCVPN IM &DM for Composite Services
2. Service Order & Activation/Configuration -  NorthBound API extension to include Composite Services (extension from Casablanca)
3. Direct Service Modification - Implementation of Change service API following what proposed in Introduction an API at ‘service’ level.pptx. E.g., Inter-Carrier change bandwidth /elastic bandwidth  for E-LAN (Access E-line, Access E-LAN)
4. Service Catalog Notification - Notify to partner SP that the Service has been created in the Service Catalog

5. Performance Monitoring modelling in Service Catalog - Model SOAM in Service Catalog for   E-LAN (Access E-line, Access E-LAN)

6. Future Releases (El Alto and beyond)
   
   1. Managed Access E-LINE Services (as per MEF 62)

   2. Automatic import/export of TOSCA csar in other provider’s Service Catalog (SDC)

   3. Service characteristics visibility in Service Inventory (A&AI)

Business Requirement

Dynamic scaling gives an operator the tools it needs to maximize efficiency of the resources dedicated to the cloud. ONAP's control environment allows it to assign resources where they are most needed and reallocate them when they are needed by different VNF.  This allows the cloud environment to achieve a much higher resource utilization level than the old data centers it is replacingE-LAN Services are used by Operators to connect different Customers (especially Enterprise Customers). For example, multiple Cloud Consumers can be connected to one or more CSP Technology Centers. This service could also be used to deliver Public Cloud services or enable secure (encrypted) connectivity to Private Clouds. 

Participating Companies

Vodafone

Scope

Dublin release will focus on Auto Scale OutMP2MP Service Creation and Modification.  If possible we may attempt to complete Scale In also.  Manual Scale Out was completed in Beijing.Performance Monitoring modeling as well.

Impacts

The Auto Scale Out Use Case for Casablanca It is envisioned that the CCVPN E-LAN Service (sub-)Use Case for Dublin will have impacts on the following projects:  Policy  External API, CLAMPSDC,  SOSO,  OOF, APPC, SDNC, SDC, and VIDA&AI, DCAE.

The modeling sub-committee will be engaged for the definition of the IM & DM.

Please see the Impacts page for page for a more detailed list of requirements in each project.
