  • Semi-standalone component, flexible individual component deployment, AI-driven lightweight component, new org chart, and focus areas

  • Semi-standalone and lightweight ONAP components emphasized as essential.

• Exploring the development of large model agents with ONAP – Keguang He from CMCC

• AI agent system architecture and integration with ONAP, adaptable LLMs in UUI, and proposals for AI-driven ONAP components

• OOM Argo-CD and Flux CD based ONAP Development Evolution – Andreas Geissler, DT

• Component-level deployments using GitOps for cloud native agility and reliability; ONAP component deployment via ArgoCD

• Policy-OPA-PDP solution to the Paris release  - Deena Mukundan, Murali Parthasarathy, Kavitha Sowndararajan from Tech Mahindra

• Access control via OPA, ONAP-specific OPA use cases, and PDP architecture integration into the Policy Framework

• SDNC-NCMP Adapter demo and OSC TEIV use cases for NCMP, John Keeney, Priyank, Maheshwari, Jeff van Dam from Ericsson Software Technology

• O-RAN TEIV integration with SDNC-NCMP adapter, TEIV APIs and Models

• A strong example of cross-community collaboration between O-RAN SC and ONAP (CPS and SDNC)

• API Security, PostQuantum cryptography and Secure CI/CD, Muddasar Ahmed fromMITRE; Aditya Koranga from NGKore

• Importance of end-to-end secure CI/CD.
