MSB/AAI

@James Forsyth





Modelling changes

@James Forsyth

Information Model == Data Model == AAI Schema (VNF and VNFC Run Time Model Proposal) is the direction from the ONAP modelling subcommittee. AAI has agreed to this; for AAI this is not a huge deal (except when we have migrations) but to our clients these represent breaking changes. @James Forsyth will write stories to contact the partner applications to report on the modelling changes. @James Forsyth informed the modelling subcommitee chair that AAI needs a formal notification of schema changes.



"Carrier Grade" "Platform Mature" AAI

@James Forsyth

The main point is that we need to provide a recommendation for an HA config in OOM. The recommendation is to set up 2 instances of each application docker, and set up a cluster of 3 cassandra nodes. @Venkata Harish Kajur and @Former user (Deleted) will be looking out how to containerize a cassandra cluster for the lab. https://hub.docker.com/_/cassandra/ 2017-12-08 - @Former user (Deleted) and @Venkata Harish Kajur have been working toward titan on Cassandra in a clustered environment. Monday we might have a cassandra cluster in the POD lab.
