Executive Summary - Application Service Descriptor (ASD) is a simplified deployment descriptor for cloud-native applications/functions. This functional requirement is for enabling a vendor provided Application Service Descriptor (ASD) compliant CNF package including an ASD CNF Descriptor to be orchestrated by ONAP SO and its sub-components. The function will provide ASD-based CNF runtime onboarding, distribution and orchestration.
Support ASD package runtime onboarding
- Support AS LCM RESTful protocol APIs
- Support ASD-based CNF orchestration operations, such as Create AS, Instantiate AS, Terminate AS and Delete AS, providing:
- External K8s Clusters registration
- AS topology inventories
- Helm charts deployment to a selected K8s cluster
Business Impact - Enables operators and service providers to use ASD-compliant CNF packages with ONAP to simplify CNF design and orchestration, by minimizing duplication, using Kubernetes management capabilities and providing clean separation between high-level orchestration and cloud-native application deployment.
Business Markets - All operators that are currently using ETSI packages and descriptors to deploy CNFs can consider ASD-based CNF package deployment and orchestration
Funding/Financial Impacts - Reduction in operations expense from using simplified CNF packaging and orchestration. Reduction in capital expense from vendors using a simplified packaging and deployment methodology.
Organization Mgmt, Sales Strategies -There is no additional organizational management or sales strategies for this requirement outside of a service providers "normal" ONAP deployment and its attendant organizational resources from a service provider.
