Meeting materials
Meeting Minutes:
1) ETSI-NFV alignment work in ONAP (Byung-woo):
issue find:
- vdu doesn't match well with vf-module concept in ONAP
- purpose of S-VNFM is questioned
- VNFD and Helm Charts have duplicate information
2) CNF direct path project (Lukasz):
3) ASD model proposal (Thinh and Marian):
- ASD is an alternative approach compared with the current SOL001 VNFD model
- one of the key intention is to avoid duplication with Helm
4) Q&A:
- Bruno:
- 1) in ETSI-NFV alignment, does the implementation imply no Helm Charts are included? A: no implementation yet
- 2) how to support cluster selection among several compute resources? A: the helm charts can support them
- Shitao:
- a lot of commonalities between ASD and ETSI models, info shared at Comments to ASD proposal
- Thinh:
- clarify if the analysis is individual contribution? A: yes
- Cristina:
- it's good to have the discussion on the merge, but in principle the 2 approaches are different
- Bruno:
- merge of the models and merge of the orchestration methods are seperate topics
- it would be good if we can have single model and orchestration methods in the industry
- ask why Thinh is negative on having single model/orchestration method?
- Marian: philosophy are different for ASD and VNFD
- whether the info captured in ASD should be added into the VNFD
- Hui:
- agree with Bruno that we could have another session to further discuss the proposals, involving more ETSI delegates
- there are many commonalities between the two models, not suggesting ONAP to copy the models while just changing the names
- Kuno:
- Because network information as Virtual Link is very important for telecom application, how to describe these network information by ASD and how/who can connect VNF to operator network which had several issue in past in ETSI-NFV? What is different concept between ASD and VNFD when consider these network aspects ?
- Bruno:
- suggest to use the gotomeeting bridge for another session
- 4. Is the ASD really technology independent? there are several references to K8S in the IM
- 5. You said ASD will support the CNF direct model. Can you elaborate on this?
- 6. Will the changes made to SOL004 be proposed to ETSI? Will the new 5G non-MANO-artifact be registered?
