Purpose
This template is to be used for the “Parallel Deep Dive Sessions to Align with architecture / Use cases” at the may ONAP developers event
Instructions.
The purpose of each section is to translate the use cases and functional architecture into specific identified needs for the components, and to identify potential projects to be proposed. There are three parts to this exercise:
- Identify needs based on the use case and architecture on this module, and potential dependencies on other modules or external artifacts.
- Group these into projects. Consider that coding, documentation, and testing is required. Include an initial scope for the project.
- If time, mapping the needs into the projects.
The need identification table has the following columns
- Identified need: <slogan for the identified need>
- Brief need description: <a few sentences describing the need>
- Driver:<Related use case or architecture change, if any>
- Dependencies:<identify dependencies on other modules or artifacts (e.g. other onap module, models, …)
- Project: <If time, after the projects are identified, suggest in which project the need would best fit>
Time keeping suggestion: The exercise time is 45 minutes. A good practice would be to split into 20 minutes on need identification and 20 minutes on project proposals.
Exercise output.
ONAP Meeting Session name: SDC
Need Identification:
Identified Need | Description | Driver | Dependencies | Project fit |
| Northbound Onboarding API | API for onboarding VNFs and Service definitions onto SDC from external systems. | |||
| Centralized VNF Image Management | Ability to centrally onboard a VNF image, yet distribute to disparate infrastructure instances. | |||
| Support different cloud infrastructure | Uploaded different deployment recipes, or import TOSCA to bootstrap VNF | |||
Support the merge architecture in ONAP for design projects | VNF SDK, Workflow designer, VNF design, VNF guidelines, VNF certification | |||
Support integration with new and modified projects, as part of merged architecture in ONAP | VF-C, SO, modeling | |||
| Multi-tenancy | ||||
| Design deployment flavors, geo redundancy, availability | (ex. policies) | |||
| Service function chain |
Project proposals.
