4	Brownfield / deployed / embedded inventory systems and AAI	Fred from Verizon	OPEN	How do we accelerate migration using A&AI and the RunTime DB solution Proposed a topic to be explored by AI&I and other ONAP WGs. High impact, common interest among most CSPs Status Quo: Most operators have multiple, siloed, possibly overlapping topology and inventory (domain specific) databases Goal is to integrate ALL Inventory, and Topology databases into a Unified AI&I Architecture modeled DB which would contain ALL VNFs (VMs/Containers), PNFs, plus support easy expansion for future Inventory & Topology constructs/technologies. May take considerable time/investment (both are short). Targeted Objectives Fast integration/consolidation time Minimize impact to business systems during migration Reduce throw away code Reduce throw away integration work Improve Service/Resource LCM & SA, especially for 5G How to accelerate the migration to Unified Database? Phased Externalization of key PNF/VNF/CNF attributes currently stored in multiple inventory and topology silos. Simplify the eventual consolidation of Inventory and Topology DBs using proposed automation tools and advanced discovery capabilities supporting the above Leverage AI&I and possibly the ONAP Runtime Config DB and other ONAP WGs to help solve the problem Proposed topic can be explored by the AI&I and other ONAP WGs.
