Dublin ONAP Information Flows

TABLE OF CONTENTS



OVERVIEW

The information flows capture the interactions between the ONAP components at an information level.  For each flow, the scope, pre-conditions, post-conditions are described as well as the major bits of information.

The following flows are yet to be added.

DESIGN TIME

  • Onboard Resource into SDC (Done) (note, a lot of work already done with the onboarding and pre-onbaording use case)** Ben/Michela/Zu

    • New Resource - to be reviewed July 30th

    • Upgraded Resource - Ben to discuss with Zu / Michela on what effort is required here

  • Create Resource Package - scope to be defined (manually create package (which is a subflow of the new resource onboarding flow)? Clarify with Steve if this should be separated out into a dedicated flow)

  • Design or onboard service

  • Service Distribution (Done)

  • Resource Level

    • Instantiate & Validation (deployment) Resource **

      • Instantiate via SO / MultiVim (Chaker / Seshu to follow up on the intent / scope of this item)

      • Instantiate via SO / VNFM plug-in

      • Instantiate via VFC

      • Instantiate via SDNC

      • Modify a resource

    • Remove Resource 

RUN-TIME

  • Service

    • Instantiate Service **

      • Instantiate Service via SO (Done)

      • Do we need more than one instantiate service flow?

        • need to capture how different actors can be called out - AP Ben to replace "VID" in diagrams to reflect a generic client (VID, CLI, ExtAPI, UUI, ...)

        • Discussion on recipe ID terminology - these refer to the combinations of workflows and code that is executed - we need to define the model behind this and the definition of "recipe"

          • Need to also align on terminology coming from other components (e.g. DG from controller etc)

    • Scale Service

    • Remove Service 

  • Runtime Config DB (Done)

  • Generic Closed Loop Control

  • Change Management
