Control Loop Objectives (Goals) - DRAFT
Dynamic creation of Control Loops
Control Loop designers should be able to build and deploy Control Loops out of the box when installing a release of the ONAP Platform. The steps should be clearly documented and easy to do. With an initial installation of an ONAP release, the Control Loop designer should be able to use existing pre-built and loaded ONAP DCAE analytics, Control Loop Policy Types, Policy PDP applications and CLAMP tools.
Enhance the configurability of the ONAP Platform to support customization for Control Loops as well as building more complex Control Loops
- Ability to integrate proprietary and/or build complex DCAE analytics
- Design and integrate custom policy models
- Build and deploy new runtime policy applications to support custom/complex Control Loops
- Introduce new proprietary Actors for use during Control Loop Operational runtime
Ability to support multiple Control Loops for multiple domains
- Supports both Service and PNF Control Loops
- Some examples of use cases: 5G, Slicing, Scale Up/Down
- Sharing of Control Loop components across multiple control loops
- Support for Control Loop Coordination
Testing Automation of Control Loops
Edge deployment of ONAP Control Loop Components to support performance/resiliency/scalability requirements
Control Loop Monitoring
- Tools to support monitoring of Control Loops running on the platform
