Description

Service

Service Model

This is a high-level service model that is "agnostic" of the types of services being modeled. The SD and NSD get derived from this model.

Service

SD Model

The Service Descriptor (SD) is a deployment template which consists of information used by the Service Orchestrator (SO) for life cycle management of a service. It references Resource Descriptors (RD). The specification provides examples of descriptors for vCPE and voLTE.

Servoce

WAN

Models WAN as a Service Component.

Service

NSD Model

The Network Service Descriptor (NSD) is a deployment template which consists of information used by the NFV Orchestrator (NFVO) for life cycle management of an NS. It references the VNFFG, VNFD, VLD, and PNFD.

Resource

Resource Model

This is a high-level resource model that is "agnostic" of the types of resources being modeled. The VNFD gets derived from this model.

Resource

VNF Descriptor Model

VNF Descriptor Topology

A VNF Descriptor (VNFD) is a deployment template which describes a VNF in terms of deployment and operational behavior requirements. It also contains connectivity, interface and virtualized resource requirements. 

Resource

VDU Descriptor

A VNFD contains one or more Virtualization Deployment Unit Descriptors (VDUD). The VDU is a construct supporting the description of the deployment and operational behaviour of a VNFC. A VNFC instance created based on the VDU maps to a single virtualisation container (e.g. a VM).

Multi-Cloud

MC Model

A cloud agnostic representation of information across disparate cloud platform providers. Note: This is a presentation only with no actual IM specification.
